One of the ways we have been delivering the message and content of the Consortium is through participation in important collaborative efforts addressing database development, energy research, valuation practice, and many other areas critical to financial assessment of sustainable properties. Some of these collaborations include:

We look forward to continuing our work to improve sustainable property investment decision-making in the future.
