Don’t Let Hidden Delays and Overlooked ESG Risks Sink Your Investment – Discover How AEW Secured Value with Our ESG Assessment

To support a well-founded investment decision for the acquisition of a high-quality logistics development in Germany, TA Europe carried out a comprehensive technical and ESG due diligence. Particular emphasis was placed on operational energy performance, CRREM risk exposure, and the asset’s long-term resilience potential.

The scope included an ESG assessment, a CRREM analysis, and the preparation of a detailed ESG grid. Based on this analysis, targeted optimisation measures were identified across areas such as energy-efficient technologies, low-carbon operations, rainwater management, biodiversity initiatives, occupant comfort, and building operations concepts.

The asset comprises a site area of approximately 24,246 sqm and a usable area of around 17,955 sqm. It includes a three-storey office building, 78 parking spaces—including electric vehicle charging infrastructure—and features a green façade, a roof terrace, and a photovoltaic system. The assessment demonstrated that the proposed measures have the potential to significantly strengthen the asset’s long-term ESG performance and sustainably safeguard value, with an indicative ESG score uplift of approximately 20% if implemented.
