SUSTAINABILITY
Our floorplates are the biggest in town, but our footprints aren’t. It takes an estimated 60 years for a standard building to recapture all the carbon emitted during the build. As humans, we’re defined by our choices. We’re dedicated to keeping ours responsible.
By celebrating the building’s quirks and refurbing, not building from new, we are reducing our use of raw materials and embodied carbon. We are upgrading old equipment to improve efficiency and reduce consumption. We painstakingly obsess over these details.
We’ve set-up this space to give your business the tools to play its part in a more sustainable future, while we continue to optimise the green credentials of the building.

GREEN TRAVEL
Helping to reduce our tenant’s daily travel footprint is fundamental. We provide free bike hire on several of our sites, as well as enhanced bike storage and shower facilities on most sites.
Each cycle rack and shower facility have the ability to reduce hundreds of car miles per year. We also have EV charging facilities at the building for all those carbon warriors.
GREEN ELECTRICITY
We have moved to a 100% renewable electricity tariff in order to minimise our environmental impact and encourage the renewable sector.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
We are on track to hit our target of 100% diversion from landfill, recycling as much of our waste as possible. We’re currently at a 67% recycling rate.
EMBODIED CARBON
Embodied carbon in both the building materials and the construction accounts for a significant proportion of the overall carbon footprint of a building.
By prioritising the refurbishment of buildings wherever possible, we are limiting the embodied carbon emissions that would have been generated through demolition and the production and transportation of new materials.
CARBON IN OPERATION
Reducing the day to day carbon emissions of our buildings is an important goal for CEG. The upgrade of our existing estate increases our operational efficiency, which provides further carbon emission reductions.
FUTURE PROOFING
During our refurbishments, we look to incorporate the latest technologies available. We also see our refurbishments as an opportunity to collaborate with occupiers on sustainable fit-outs.
SUSTAINABILITY MANAGER
We have sustainability clauses in our leases. We hold sustainability forums with the tenants.
