We also focus on capex investments for improving building sustainability.

We implement a comprehensive life cycle assessment that evaluates the impact of a building's lifespan and its level of decarbonisation. A novel aspect of our analysis is that we assess the environmental impact of a building not only based on its actual emissions, but also on the resources consumed from construction to emission generation.Physical Climate Risk Assessment
