Key Takeaways

• Commercial real estate (CRE) operators were encouraged to utilize federal resources to proactively work toward achieving net zero emissions goals.
• Implementation of ESG regulations has been fragmented but increased disclosure requirements, data transparency, and thorough due diligence are potential remedies.
• Green lending is growing, supported by the high costs of decarbonizing real estate. Lenders are hoping to standardize processes and establish broadly accepted key performance indicators.
