Demand for environmentally friendly buildings is set to increase strongly over the next two years as companies with emissions reduction commitments see their leases come up for renewal and seek a greener alternative, real estate company JLL said. As more companies commit to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, most will be looking to cut those tied to their offices and factories, yet demand for low carbon buildings is set to outstrip supply. "Time is of the essence for the real estate industry," Guy Grainger, JLL's Global Head of Sustainability Services and ESG, said.
