The two most widely used green building systems, BREEAM and LEED, were developed and are delivered by the BRE and USGBC respectively.<\/p>\n<h3>A sustainable finance guide will be launched at London Climate Action Week<\/h3>\n<p>The first in a series of milestones in the alliance will be the publication of a practical guide at London Climate Action Week in June 2024, exploring the sustainable finance instruments currently available to the real estate market, such as green loans and green bonds.<\/p>\n<p>The sustainable finance guide will build on an initial document developed by GBCA and launched to the Australian market in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming version is set to drive awareness of sustainable finance mechanisms in the real estate sector and demonstrate how rating systems like BREEAM, Green Star and LEED ensure compliance with multiple sustainable classification frameworks used globally, such as the EU and UK green taxonomies.<\/p>\n<h3>Strengthening global sustainable finance<\/h3>\n<p>Gillian Charlesworth, chief executive officer of the Building Research Establishment, said: \u201cIn an era where environmental sustainability is not just a responsibility but a necessity, we fully recognise the need to drive a deeper understanding of the role of sustainable finance in addressing global challenges &#8211; most notably climate change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith our new alliance with the GBCA and USGBC, BRE hopes to strengthen global cooperation between the finance and real estate industries, and in doing so increase the uptake of sustainable finance mechanisms and deliver a decarbonised built environment not just in the UK, but across the world as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Davina Rooney, chief executive officer of the Green Building Council of Australia, said: \u201cThis global alliance shows that the world\u2019s major sustainability rating systems are aligned &#8211; not just on climate science &#8211; but on how we can ensure that all buildings are able to transition to a decarbonised future.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As we move through a global sustainable finance revolution, together, we have the potential to unlock significant benefits for buildings, the environment and for people. Green Building Council of Australia looks forward to taking this first important step with the USGBC and BREEAM.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peter Templeton, chief executive officer of the U.S. Green Building Council, said: \u201cThe green building community has proven that buildings can accelerate global decarbonization while advancing critical human health, climate resilience, and social equity imperatives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIncreasing the flow of capital to buildings and portfolios delivering these outcomes is essential to expanding the scale and impact of this work. I\u2019m thrilled to partner with BRE and GBCA to strengthen alignment and coordination with the financial sector and to create a model of global collaboration to transform the built environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each of the major green building rating systems for the UK, Australia and the
