Case Study: Eastnine builds a sustainability agenda and tackles climate risk with GRESB

Swedish real estate manager Eastnine joined GRESB to build a sustainability agenda and tackle physical climate risk

Eastnine, a Swedish real estate manager, faced the challenge of building a formal sustainability agenda and assessing physical climate risk across its portfolio. Prior to engaging with GRESB, the company lacked a structured process for ESG data collection and reporting and sought an efficient way to adopt industry best practices from the outset.

GRESB provided the framework and tools necessary for Eastnine to benchmark its performance and build its strategy. Using the GRESB Real Estate Benchmark and the GRESB Climate Risk Platform, Eastnine identified performance gaps, set measurable goals, and integrated climate risk into its due diligence. As a result, the company established a comprehensive sustainability agenda, introduced key metrics for executive compensation, and set specific targets including climate neutrality by 2030 and a 100% renewable energy portfolio.
