JLL sets international banking group on path to net zero

With an ambitious target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2030 across its operations and supply chain, the international banking group entrusts JLL with helping decarbonize its corporate real estate and meet wider sustainability and ESG goals that engage employees and drive brand preference globally.

JLL’s global reach is aligned to the bank’s, enabling energy and sustainability solutions to be delivered consistently at scale. From implementing relatively simple, but highly scalable no-to-low-cost energy conservation measures to technology-led solutions that use data to optimize consumption, JLL’s Work Dynamics business supports the bank across a 37mn s.f. portfolio in over 50 countries.

The deepening year-on-year strategic partnership between JLL and the bank focuses on achieving reductions in energy, waste and water, in turn helping to lower operating costs.
