Case Study: Arcus Infrastructure Partners improves portfolio ESG performance with GRESB

Europe-based infrastructure fund manager Arcus uses GRESB to improve asset ESG performance across the portfolio

Arcus Infrastructure Partners, a European infrastructure fund manager, sought a robust method to improve and benchmark the ESG performance of its portfolio companies. To meet this challenge, the firm turned to GRESB and began leveraging its Infrastructure Fund and Asset Assessments as a core part of its strategy.

The solution involved using GRESB's industry-specific framework to conduct annual gap analyses and implement targeted ESG improvements across its assets. For example, at its Constellation Cold Storage Logistics platform, insights from a GRESB Assessment led to a refrigerant replacement program. This initiative resulted in significant energy cost savings of 15-20% at relevant facilities while concurrently reducing environmental impact. GRESB provided the material, sector-specific benchmarking necessary to guide these practical and measurable enhancements.
