Buildings account for a large share of energy use and operating cost in every city, and boards are now asked to show how their property portfolio will cut emissions without damaging returns. Five days give directors, asset owners and senior facilities leaders the judgement to set targets, approve retrofit spending and hold teams to account. You examine how energy baselines, benchmarking and metering reveal waste, how energy performance certificates and green building ratings such as EDGE and LEED shape asset value, and how scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions are counted for property.
The programme then turns to decision making: comparing retrofit options by payback and net present value, financing through energy performance contracts and green loans, and weighing on-site solar against grid supply. Sessions on governance cover reporting to boards and investors, tenant engagement and managing delivery risk. It is aimed at chief executives, property and facilities directors, estate managers, CFOs, public sector asset heads and sustainability leads. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house with a CPD-accredited certificate. You finish with a board-ready decarbonisation roadmap outline for your own estate.
Energy cost, tenant expectations and climate disclosure rules are converging on the same point: leaders who cannot explain how their buildings perform will struggle to attract capital, retain occupiers or meet public commitments. Most of the savings available sit in a small number of decisions about targets, investment priorities and operating culture, and those decisions belong at executive level.
The Executive Building Energy Performance & Decarbonisation Training Course concentrates on those decisions. Participants review how a building uses energy, how performance is benchmarked and rated, and how emissions are measured across a portfolio. They then compare efficiency, electrification and renewable options, test business cases with payback, net present value and lifecycle cost, and explore financing routes including energy performance contracting and green finance. Later sessions address governance, reporting, procurement of energy services and the management of embodied carbon in refurbishment and new development.
Teaching is discussion-led and built on portfolio case studies. Delegates interrogate sample energy data, rank interventions for a mixed estate and leave with a draft roadmap, a set of governance questions to put to their own teams and a clear sense of where to commission specialist advice.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
