Tracking the real estate energy transition

Is the era of fiscal complacency nearing its end?

Despite considerable progress on decarbonisation over the past decade, the global built environment is currently not on track to become net zero carbon by 2050.

Realising a net zero carbon transition for the built environment will require critical objectives being met. Tracking indicators of progress towards these outcomes gives an idea of the pace of transition and if these goals are not reached, the transformation is unlikely to occur.

We have identified six indicators and classified them as an accelerant, bottleneck or neutral based on our assessment conducted in 2025.
