NatWest has today made its new Building Efficiency Assessment Tool available to existing commercial real estate customers. The free platform is being launched in collaboration with sustainability consultancy CFP Green Buildings. The tool will provide a quick insight on how customers can potentially improve the energy efficiency of their buildings and benefit from associated cost savings.
The tool, which has already been rolled out in Europe, can be used for both residential and commercial buildings and uses publicly available data to help customers identify ways in which they can improve the energy efficiency of their buildings.
Charlie Foster, Head of Commercial Real Estate at NatWest Group, said:
“We’re always looking for new ways to support our customers and help them become more sustainable. The NatWest Building Efficiency Assessment Tool is the next step on this journey and may help our commercial real estate customers improve the energy efficiency of their buildings and identify cost saving opportunities.
“As the biggest business bank in Great Britain, we’re committed to using our expertise to help our customers grow and achieve their ambitions to lower their emissions.
Neil Grant, Managing Director of Swanston Holdings PLC, was one of our first customers to use the tool and said:
“Overall the software is helpful and extremely useful in trying to meet whatever carbon targets are placed on landlords in the future.”
