„Certificates assure that<br />
sustainability and EU<br />
taxonomy have been<br />
mapped correctly.“<br />
Anna-Vera Deinhammer,<br />
ÖGNI<br />
of the topic of certification with this intensity<br />
for a year now. Pre-certificates now play a<br />
big role; they show whether a building is EU<br />
taxonomy-ready at all.“ Deinhammer finds<br />
Herbek‘s idea of a certificate for different stakeholders<br />
interesting. „All the data you need<br />
for a building is there, after all, but not everyone<br />
is interested in everything. Whoever<br />
does the risk assessment for financing is<br />
necessarily interested in something different<br />
than the end customer.“ What‘s important<br />
about the certificates is quality. „ÖGNI and<br />
DGNB are expert opinions for which the<br />
advisers and auditors are responsible. You<br />
can see through the financing issue that no<br />
one wants to produce stranded assets, so the<br />
market is paying a lot of attention to that.“<br />
Uncertainty in the real estate market is high<br />
because the EU Taxonomy Regulation has<br />
not yet been defined. Only the criteria for the<br />
so-called „Substantial Contributions“ for the<br />
first two protection goals have been formulated.<br />
„Certificates also have their limitations,<br />
as they are a snapshot of the condition of<br />
the building at the date it was just tested.“<br />
„Financing large<br />
volumes without<br />
certifications is no<br />
longer possible today.“<br />
