Financial Imperatives for Retrofit and Decarbonisation - Virtual Conference
What will this session cover?
Decarbonisation is not only good for the environment, it’s good for business – and a wider understanding of this could help accelerate our move towards Net Zero.
There are growing financial imperatives for decarbonisation. This comes from many angles, driven by things such as:
- Regulatory compliance and future proofing
- Carbon Pricing
- Investor Pressure and ESG integration
- Lower operational costs of buildings
- Avoiding stranded assets
- A changing consumer market
- Risk mitigation and climate adaptation
- Reputational Risks
- Access to Capital
- Competitive advantage
They will impact the wider industry and market trends, they will impact the contractor offer, the client motivation and the delivery method of works.
It’s vital that businesses across the built environment, and their clients, understand these drivers.
That is why we are bringing together an expert panel to discuss this further.
