Inovalis obtains LEED® PLATINUM certification. This prestigious certification, which is not yet widely available in Spain, rewards Inovalis’ strategy.

A symbol of excellence in environmental and energy performance, Inovalis’ Eurocomsur building has just been awarded LEED® PLATINUM certification. This prestigious certification, which is not yet widely available in Spain, rewards Inovalis’ strategy.

This 8,000 sqm office building in the center of Malaga is the first to obtain this level of certification in Malaga, and the 9th in Spain (excluding Madrid and Barcelona). A total transformation for this asset which, built in the 90s, had no environmental certification when it was purchased by Inovalis at the end of 2020.

A certification that reflects Inovalis’ asset management strategy.

LEED® criteria are based on six major themes: site layout, water management, energy performance, use and management of materials and resources, indoor environmental quality and innovation.

This certification is the result of the proactive asset management strategy pursued by Inovalis since the acquisition, in which the 16 tenants (including three consulates and an Andalusian regional government body) have been involved.  It includes :

• Installation of solar panels to decarbonize energy;
• Measures to improve the quality of service, safety and comfort of occupants (acoustic panels, lounge and cafeteria point, more welcoming entrance, perimeter gate closed at night, latest-cri access doors).
• Rationalization of energy consumption (solar films, controlled LED lighting, thermodynamic hot water production, water economizer).
• This is the second Inovalis asset in Spain to obtain LEED® certification, and others are in the process of being certified, with the minimum objective of obtaining LEED® GOLD certification.
• CBRE supported the certification process.

“This certification is significant because it demonstrates the success of our investment plan, which identified the potential of Eurocomsur property. It also proves the impact of our asset management strategy over the past three years that has revealed the full value of this asset. This approach is in line with the Group’s CSR policy, implemented throughout our portfolio in Spain and across Europe. Our commitments are tangible and ensure the sustainability and value of our assets », declared Sophie Malerba, Deputy CIO d’Inovalis.
