Greater Interest in Greener Properties Says CBI & GVA GRIMLEY

25/07/2006

A new CBI/GVA Grimley survey reveals that commercial property occupiers see energy efficiency as a top priority when reviewing future accommodation needs and that a majority of respondents are concerned about possible future increases in energy prices especially as the Government is considering introducing an emissions trading scheme for the commercial sector. The survey also shows that companies are considering occupying 'greener' property as it can bring other benefits such as raising staffsatisfaction and improving company image.
