Mercialys has received validation of its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets under the SBTi’s sector-specific “Buildings” standard. This scientific validation confirms the Company’s strengthened trajectory, which now aims to reduce its Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions (Category 13: downstream leased assets) by -62% per square meter by 2030 and -92% by 2050, compared to 2017.
Its previous target, certified in 2019, called for a -47% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions per square meter by 2030. Mercialys is therefore raising its decarbonization target, with an ambition that now includes energy consumption in both the common areas of its shopping centers and its tenants' spaces, adopting a whole-building approach.
