Zero Carbon Consulting
Moving with confidence to a zero carbon future
Welcome to CDW Engineering’s Zero Carbon Consulting services, a pioneering approach to real estate sustainability. As the world recognizes the need to reduce carbon emissions, CDW Engineering is at the forefront, providing innovative approaches customized to both existing buildings and new construction. Discover how our comprehensive services can help your properties achieve a greener, more sustainable future.
The first step in creating an effective road map for reducing your carbon footprint is to examine your properties’ existing emissions levels. Our bespoke BCE (Building Carbon Evaluation) service assesses your property’s current carbon levels, identifies areas for reduction, and suggests viable renewable energy strategies. We will also include preliminary budget estimates and any relevant incentive programs to finance the retrofits in the report.
Four reasons to focus on zero carbon
1. Regulatory requirements
Legislation requiring buildings to function at or near zero emissions is already in the works. All newly constructed buildings must be zero carbon by 2030, and in some jurisdictions, existing buildings must be zero carbon by 2040.
2. Market demand
Close to 70% of the top 1,000 corporations have already made commitments to decarbonization.
3. Risk mitigation and future proofing
Budgeting for future upgrades should include strategies and equipment that focus on zero carbon performance; otherwise, buildings will invest in equipment that will be obsolete before it reaches the end of its useful life.
4. Preferred lending rate
There are programs available with attractive lending rates for retrofit projects that can demonstrate a significant reduction in carbon emissions.
At CDW Engineering, we believe that sustainability is not just a goal—it’s a fundamental principle that drives our approach to consulting.
