American global commercial real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield traces back to 1784 and now manages more than 5.1 billion square feet of commercial real estate space globally.
“ As a leading global commercial real estate firm, we know that when it comes to sustainability, what we do today shapes the future for generations to come,” says Michelle MacKay, Cushman & Wakefield’ s CEO.
Cushman & Wakefield is driving meaningful progress toward decarbonising the built environment through innovative strategies that integrate energy efficiency, renewable power and sustainable design across its global real estate portfolio. Recognising that buildings account for a significant share of global carbon emissions, the firm embeds decarbonisation into its operations and client services, helping to reshape how commercial properties are developed, managed and occupied.
A key focus lies in reducing operational emissions by enhancing energy performance through smart building technologies, data-led monitoring and retrofitting measures that optimise heating, cooling and lighting systems. The company also supports clients in transitioning to renewable energy sources, onsite generation and purchasing green power to lower their carbon intensity.
Cushman & Wakefield’ s Science Based Targets initiative( SBTi)-approved goals commit the company to net zero emissions across its value chain by 2050. Its sustainability services portfolio includes carbon mapping, green leasing and life-cycle assessments to identify and achieve measurable reductions.
