CPI focuses on green energy

Largest commercial real estate owner in the Czech Republic, Berlin, and Central and Eastern Europe, CPI Property Group (CPIPG), focuses on renewable energy in all owned and managed real estate in Poland. CPIPG consistently conducts activities in the field of implementation of pro-ecological solutions as one of the basic elements of the sustainable development policy. The strategic goal of the group in terms of the green doctrine in owned and managed real estate in Poland is to ensure energy supplies from renewable sources. The goal will be achieved on January 1, 2023.

The Warsaw office portfolio accounts for 87 percent of the value of all real estate segments belonging to CPIPG in Poland. Currently, three out of 14 office buildings are fully powered by green energy. These are Eurocentrum Office Complex and Green Corner A, which were created on the basis of the principles of sustainable construction – from materials to operational solutions and the Warsaw Financial Center – one of the most prestigious office buildings in the capital.

From 2022, green energy will flow to all office buildings from the CPIPG portfolio, located along Aleje Jerozolimskie. The project of changes covers neighboring: Equator I, Equator II, and Equator IV. All necessary contracts with suppliers have already been signed. Another office building powered by renewable energy will be located at ul. Grzybowska Concept Tower (January 1, 2022).

In older office buildings from the CPIPG portfolio – Atrium Plaza and Atrium Centrum, Central Tower, Prosta 69, and in Moniuszki 1A acquired in March 2020, traditional energy supplies are planned until the end of 2022. Currently, negotiations with contractors regarding the ratification of green contracts are underway.

“The need to replace traditional energy sources with renewable energy is indisputable. As a responsible company, we want to have a positive impact on the environment wherever we have real estate. There are arguments of an ecological and economic nature. For CPIPG – the owner and manager of the largest portfolio of office space in Warsaw, it is also an obligation resulting from the promises made to our tenants in the field of sustainable development policy," Cezary Kopij, Technical Director of CPIPG Polska, said.
