Smart Solutions, Sustainable Gains: Zurich Insurance & BuildingMinds

Zurich Insurance and BuildingMinds join forces to reshape the way real estate asset data is managed for a greener, smarter future

Directly connecting with utility providers through the power of smart metering - rather than non-granular invoice scraping - across Zurich's vast portfolio of over 1,000 assets, the newly implemented cutting-edge data management system delivers accurate, real-time energy insights. With BuildingMinds’ support, Zurich can now transform 15-minute sensor data into monthly operational measurements for ESG reporting, in line with CRREM 2.0, turning sustainability into a strategic advantage.

The project team has launched a smart metering project across the EU, in Germany, Spain, France and the Netherlands, empowering Zurich to slash carbon emissions, streamline operations, and stay ahead of regulatory demands - all while driving performance and value in an increasingly data-driven world.

The collaboration between Zurich Insurance and BuildingMinds began in December 2020, with a mission to tackle Zurich’s need for a transparent and reliable system to manage insights across their global portfolio. BuildingMinds stepped up to the challenge, delivering a unified, audit-ready platform for Zurich to rely on for ESG analysis and reporting.
