With the Middle East region joining global efforts to cut carbon emissions drastically and fight climate change, a sustainable building sector will play a vital role in helping reach these objectives. Apart from greenfield real estate projects in the Middle East, massive sustainability gains also exist in greening existing property stock.
The key to achieving energy efficiency involves implementing strategies that decrease energy demand and promote the use of environmentally friendly energy sources. One effective approach is to focus on retrofitting buildings, which enhances energy utilization in areas such as air conditioning, ventilation, and other mechanical and electrical systems. Significant energy savings can be achieved by optimizing HVAC systems in particular, as heating and cooling alone typically represent 40 to 60 percent of the total energy expenses for commercial buildings, thereby paving the way for energy transition.
