Without a systematic process for collecting, tracking and reporting on diverse data sources and formats of building and utility metrics, organisations with large, complex property portfolios struggle to meet their sustainability targets.
This module allows you to capture, analyse and track building benchmarks and ratings across your entire property portfolio.
It also features dedicated API connectors and algorithms, so you can report directly into the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) and ENERGY STAR® frameworks and get indicative building ratings from National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS).

Built-in NABERS algorithm

Frequently asked questions
What are ESG building benchmarks and ratings?
ESG building benchmarks and ratings assess the sustainability and ethical performance of buildings based on various criteria. Environmental factors may include energy efficiency, carbon footprint, and waste management. Social factors can involve occupant well-being and community impact, while governance encompasses transparency and ethical practices.
How can I report ESG building benchmarks and ratings?
To report ESG building benchmarks and ratings, you need to engage with a reputable ESG rating agency or certification body. They will evaluate your building’s performance against established criteria and issue a rating or certification accordingly. Make sure to gather all necessary data and documentation related to your building’s sustainability initiatives and practices.
Which organisations provide ESG building benchmarks and ratings?
Several organisations offer ESG building benchmarks and ratings. Some of the prominent ones include:
- LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
- BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method)
- Green Star (Australia’s national rating system for buildings)
- ENERGY STAR (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s rating for energy-efficient buildings)
- GRESB (Global ESG Benchmark for Real Assets)

Are there any tax incentives or benefits associated with higher ESG ratings?
Tax incentives and benefits related to ESG ratings can vary based on location and local regulations.

It’s essential to research and consult with local authorities to understand any potential financial benefits.
How can I compare my building’s ESG rating with others in the industry?
