Positive results of environmental activities

Fabege’s systematic environmental work has generated positive results. Between 2002 and 2011, Fabege’s CO2 emissions were reduced from 40,000 to 4,000 tonnes, or by more than 90 per cent.

During the same period, energy consumption was reduced by more than 40 per cent. Fabege’s efforts have included systematic energy optimisation, conversions from oil to district heating and conversions from proprietary cooling machines to district cooling offering improved environmental performance.

Conversions to Green electricity and changes in the property portfolio have also contributed to the favourable development. Fabege has reduced its heating consumption by an additional approximately 11 per cent, and is thus currently about 50 per cent below the average reported by the Swedish Energy Agency for the Stockholm County climate zone, which also makes Fabege an industry leader.

The result was primarily achieved through energy optimisation, but also through investments in energyefficient technology. The results have been achieved mainly through energyoptimisation measures, but also through investments in energy-efficient technology.

Over time, Fabege’s systematic efforts to optimise running costs have reduced energy use in our properties drastically. Fabege’s heating consumption in 2011 averaged 70 kWh/sqm LOA and 60 kWh/sqm Atemp. Carbon dioxide emissions have also been reduced drastically as a result of energy optimisation, conversion from oil to district heating, the choice of environmentally declared electricity and a changed property portfolio.
