The CRREM pathways include science-based carbon emission targets. While an emission factor is a coefficient representing the rate at which a given activity releases greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere, the CO2 emission targets ("carbon intensity", measured in kgCO2e/(m2 * year)) are the coefficient goal building carbon emissions are set to reach. Together with our net energy demand targets ("energy intensity", measured in kWh/(m2 * year)), they make our platform uniquely rigorous in its methodology.
Besides the application of industry-standard pathways such as CRREM, BuildingMinds enables its customers to make use of their company-specific decarbonization targets for example related to the 'Science Based Targets initiative' (SBTi) or a membership in the UN-convened 'Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance' (NZAOA). Our sustainability experts work closely with customers to turn these long-term reduction targets into yearly building-specific plans, which are integrated into our platform for ongoing tracking.
Users of our platform can choose between CRREM sustainability targets based on the 2°C or the more ambitious 1.5°C global warming scenario. In total, the platform contains more than 6,000 uniquely customized targets.
