Mercialys (Paris:MERY):
GRESB 1, the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark,
published the results of its annual ranking today. This benchmark
assesses the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices
of real estate companies around the world. For its seventh
participation, Mercialys continued to progress, moving up to second
place in its category for listed retail property companies in
Europe. These outstanding results reflect the CSR commitments set
out by the Company, through its 4 Fair Impacts for 2030
strategy.
Mercialys achieved a rating of 91/100, up 2 points from 2021,
while the GRESB’s average rating is down 1 point to 74/100. The
Company has consolidated its position as a leader for sustainable
development and maintained its Green Star status, the benchmark’s
highest level of recognition, for the sixth consecutive year.
In terms of the 14 areas covered by this benchmark, Mercialys’
performance stands out in particular in the Management category,
reflecting its integrated management of CSR at the heart of the
Company’s strategy. The Company achieved the maximum score in four
of the five corresponding areas: leadership, policies, stakeholder
engagement and reporting.
Alongside this, highlighting the progress made with its
strategic initiatives, Mercialys improved its results in 2021, in
the Performance category, on the following aspects:
- The Company’s certification policy, with 100% of its
strategic assets BREEAM In-Use certified;
- Its ongoing commitment to energy savings and its drive
to engage tenants in this approach, reflected in a -5% reduction in
overall consumption like-for-like versus 2021, whereas the GRESB
benchmark recorded a +1.2% increase;
- The use of renewable energies, with the consumption of
green electricity and 25% biogas for its centers in mainland
France;
- The actions to reduce water consumption, outpacing the
GRESB benchmark.
In the current context of energy market tensions, Mercialys has
also decided to ramp up its efforts to reduce energy consumption
levels 2. The Company has rolled out a series of immediate measures
to supplement its CSR strategy, focused on heating temperatures,
switching off lighting and illuminated signs, as well as the air
flow rates for the ventilation systems.
