Standards are evolving quickly in the building maintenance sector, and owners of older properties are at risk of being burdened with deteriorating assets that gradually lose value and generate less and less income. The effect can be particularly dramatic for those with substantial ageing portfolios or large multi-floor buildings, and it can become untenable if the decision to renovate is put off for too long. To overcome these problems, many Landlords are searching for innovative ways to make their buildings more ’future proof’.

A sufficient supply of clean and affordable energy is increasingly becoming a part of this plan. Modern buildings are constructed to a high ecological standard, so the demand for properties that have a comparatively high carbon footprint is rapidly decreasing. At the same time, operating and maintenance costs for older buildings are rising, squeezing the profits from rent to unsustainable levels. This trend is likely to continue into the foreseeable future, meaning owners of ageing properties are being forced to adapt or risk eventually being eliminated from the market. Going green is not an option any more – it is an imperative and the time to take action is now.

Fortunately, there are a lot of technologies that can be deployed in existing buildings to make them more cost effective and decrease the amount of CO2 emissions they generate. Partnering with a proven innovator in the field of sustainable energy management like EnviroTech goes a long way towards establishing a more sustainable energy solution. By utilising renewable resources and implementing measures to reduce the amount of wasted energy, companies can take a proactive attitude to energy-related challenges and stay ahead of the curve.

Every building faces a different set of challenges, so there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. To remove risk of ‘future shocks’, it is necessary to analyse the existing structures and identify weak spots that require action. Based on the findings of the preliminary analysis and projections of future needs, Envirotech can suggest a number of possible solutions to fit your unique business challenges.
