Read Full ArticleBRE has revealed the winners of its annual BREEAM Awards, a celebration of sustainable building design.
Announced at the BREEAM Summit and Awards 2022, among the winners was French group Carmila, the third largest listed owner of commercial property in continental Europe, who took home the GRESB/BREEAM award in the large portfolio category.
This is the sixth year that BREEAM and GRESB have collaborated on this award, which recognises responsible investment and demonstrates the role that BREEAM plays in supporting ESG strategy.
The Maison Administrative de la Province de Namur and The UAE Pavilion are another two winners from this year’s awards, rewarded for striking the right balance between cutting-edge aesthetic design and commitment to environmental standards.
The Maison Administrative de la Province de Namur, a building dedicated to provincial governmental business in the Belgian city of Namur, makes unique use of renewable energies, achieving the highest standard of energy efficiency by extracting energy from the groundwater which surrounds the development.
BREEAM, which is a core part of BRE’s work, has been the world-leading sustainability assessment method for planning projects, infrastructure and buildings for over 30 years.
The BREEAM Awards is an annual celebration recognising the projects and organisations that, in the view of the independent judging panel, are leading the way with significant achievements in sustainable building design, development and management.
