The purpose of REAL ESG is to create greater comparability, transparency and concreteness in ESG reporting within the property sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">REAL ESG is a free tool that aims to simplify and streamline the process of preparing a thorough ESG report. The tool was developed through the trade association EjendomDanmark and the construction knowledge centre Molio, with support from <a href=\"https:\/\/realdania.dk\/nyheder\/2024\/01\/ejendomsbranchen-faar-faelles-standard-for-samfundsansvar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Realdania<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It should be noted that The Real Estate Reporting Framework is a voluntary standard and is not certified or approved as an industry standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tool is primarily aimed at property owners who are not subject to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). Therefore, it only takes these standards into account to a lesser extent. Recommendations for qualitative information and more <a href=\"https:\/\/khr.dk\/en\/services\/sustainability\/\" data-type=\"xprt\" data-id=\"1552\">social parameters<\/a> is also not fully integrated at this time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So while REAL ESG offers a valuable tool for ESG reporting in the property sector, users should be aware of the limitations mentioned above and we recommend using REAL as a tool in a more holistic and multi-faceted approach to ESG work. If you need advice on ESG, please contact Peter Nielsen, Director of Client Consultancy or Frederik Agdrup, Sustainability Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make the tool as clear as possible, REAL ESG comes in three versions - the simple version aimed at smaller property owners, the full version aimed at larger property owners and an advisor version. All three can be downloaded via the link at the top of the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Council for Sustainable Construction has also recently launched a <a href=\"https:\/\/khr.dk\/en\/shortcut-to-esg-reporting\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"19963\">ESG tool<\/a>which is not coterminous with REAL ESG. While RFBB's tool helps to see which data points from DGNB and taxonomy services are compliant with ESG, REAL ESG can be used to assess ESG compliance for an entire property portfolio and is further along in developing an actual tool that you can make calculations with. However, both tools are in early versions, so keep an eye on developments and make sure you use the latest one.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESG reporting is hard to avoid in the property industry.
