This webinar will introduce EDGE, a green building software and certification scheme that is transforming the built environment. EDGE was created by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), member of the World Bank Group. With EDGE, companies can maximize the value of their commercial real estate property and create business returns.
Objective
The objective of this webinar is to help companies in the commercial real estate sector, from retail to offices to warehouses, to understand how to maximize the value of their property. Participants will learn how to identify improvement opportunities within their building stock, reduce operational costs, access funding for long-term investments and implement green buildings across a portfolio of buildings.
Agenda
1. Why does commercial real estate need to be green?
2. What value do green buildings bring to commercial real estate properties?

Background
Is your building, in its design, construction, or operation, reducing or eliminating negative impacts on our climate and natural environment? EDGE can help you to begin your journey towards achieving a net-zero building.
EDGE offers a simple and intuitive interface supporting data such as climatic conditions, use patterns, technologies, and typical practices in over 140 countries. With few inputs, EDGE can assess the economic and environmental impact of building designs and calculate the energy and water efficiency of the base case (if built-in line with standard/typical practice). EDGE can then be used to calculate the incremental and operational costs, in terms of energy and water efficiency, relating to any planned design improvements.
