Jean-Pierre Hanin, CEO of Cofinimmo:
Sustainability is an area in which Cofinimmo has been a pioneer since 2008 and which is an integral part of our DNA. By 2030, we aim to reduce the energy intensity of our real estate portfolio by 30% compared to 2017, using the science-based targets methodology. This aligns us perfectly with the COP21 objectives. All our teams share this ambitious goal. This goal is a fantastic motivation to continue to increase our efforts and to contribute to building a more sustainable environment.
