ESR ESG 2020 - EN
Building for the New Economy 23 STRIVING FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT Leaving our lightest footprint and finding opportunities to replenish the resources we consume will be imperative to achieving sustainable development. Existing and new technologies help us to achieve our targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve energy-efficiency while enabling our tenants to run their operations as sustainably and efficiently as possible. We report environmental performance data for our managed properties i.e. those over which we exercise “operational control.” Please refer to our ESG Data Summary for disclosures on the composition and basis of calculation of our energy use and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as water use and waste in directly managed assets. 35 MW Rooftop solar installed capacity 147,000 GJ Solar power generated Harnessing clean and renewable sources of energy ESR has made energy sustainability a priority by actively developing rooftop solar plants. We are steadily overcoming barriers to further increasing rooftop solar power generation in all markets. We are also exploring other renewable energy sources. In 2020, our properties in India consumed 11,000 GJ of grid purchased geothermal energy. In Australia, we aspire to meet 100% of our energy needs from renewables by sourcing wind and hydro generated power through the grid to supplement our rooftop solar supply. In 2020, rooftop solar power generation reached 147,000 GJ, which is a 55% increase from 2019.
