Mindspace REIT Pioneers Net Zero Certification with Global Network for Zero
Real Estate Pune:Mindspace Business Parks REIT, a leading owner and developer of quality Grade A office portfolio in India, has announced its partnership with the Global Network for Zero (GNFZ), the world's premier independent net zero certification body. This partnership marks a major milestone in Mindspace REIT's dedication to environmental sustainability, advancing its goal to certify the entire portfolio as net zero by 2042.

The certification process will begin with the evaluation of one of the buildings at Mindspace Airoli West, situated near the vibrant residential micro-markets of Thane and Navi Mumbai. Already a 'Platinum' certified building under LEED v4.1 O+M, it exemplifies high-performance building standards and efficient systems.

To align with the GNFZ's net zero transformation strategy, this building will reduce Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions through energy efficiency upgrades, green power procurement, and green leases for occupants.

This new partnership builds upon Mindspace REIT's longstanding commitment to sustainable practices, which has resulted in 99.9% of the REIT portfolio being green certified, with 22 million sq. ft of leasable area being platinum certified. The company has also successfully implemented an Infrastructure Monitoring & Operations Centre (IMOC) for enhanced efficiency and reduced environmental impact.
