Real I.S. AG has published its Sustainability Report 2025. The report documents the progress made in implementing the ESG strategy and shows the further development of key measures for digitalisation, decarbonisation and sustainable management of the real estate portfolio.
The company is making progress in the area of digitalization and smart building management: Around 2.5 million square meters of rental space are recorded via a central ESG data analysis platform. In addition, around 70 percent of the common areas in the German real estate portfolio are equipped with smart meter systems, while the common areas of the German Real I.S. properties are supplied with green electricity.
Another focus is the step-by-step implementation of the photovoltaic strategy developed in 2024. New PV projects were implemented on the basis of a portfolio-wide programme of measures – among other things, a logistics and an office property were extensively equipped with PV systems for the generation of green electricity and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, Real I.S. expanded its expertise in energy procurement and implemented the direct, independent procurement of green electricity without intermediary brokers for the first time.
Strategically, Real I.S. also uses the transparency created by the EU taxonomy as a basis for performance-driven decisions within its portfolio. A complete screening of the portfolio, including a climate risk and vulnerability analysis of the individual properties, provides reliable information on the value and future viability of the properties and is therefore ultimately a central element of the ESG strategy. For example, the in-depth analysis of fund properties in the year under review shows that more than 30 percent of the properties in the overall portfolio already meet the criteria of the EU taxonomy for climate change mitigation or adaptation.
"The geopolitical and economic challenges show how important resilient and sustainable real estate portfolios are. We see sustainability as an integral part of professional real estate management. Climate risks and the associated necessary adaptability of real estate are increasingly influencing rentability, value stability and long-term earning power, which is why ESG factors are part of future-oriented portfolio management," says Franz Krewel, Member of the Management Board of Real I.S. AG.
Real I.S. is a signatory to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment and the UN Global Compact and regularly reports on progress in implementing its sustainability goals. The Sustainability Report 2025 has been prepared with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and is available for download on the Real I.S. website.
