SUSTAINABILITY IN ACTION

Sustainability has become a source of competitive advantage for corporations, individual buildings and real estate portfolios.

It also plays an increasingly important role in business and regulatory relationships, such as real estate investments by companies with environmental screening criteria, requirements for development entitlements and construction project permitting and perhaps most critically, office tenant space selection decisions.

The vision of the Asset Management team is for TPG “to become the global leader in green” through certifying the entire TPG portfolio of properties, mapping their carbon baseline and reducing it, exceeding current standards and enhancing competitiveness of company and buildings.

Benefits of green operation include:

• Maximize energy & water efficiency
• Reduce operational costs
• Constitute a higher quality product
• Reposition property to attract and retain tenants
• Stay ahead of pending government regulations
• Appeal to tenants who are increasingly demanding healthy & sustainable work environments
• Increase NOI & Value
