6 Regulatory change “20-20-20” goals set down by the European Union 20% of consumed energy to be renewable 20% increase in energy efficiency 20% reduction in emissions Energy Performance of Buildings Directive adopted in 2002 Certification of buildings based on its relative energy performance (EPCs) Required in UK for all large buildings occupied by public authority or relevant institution by October 2008 (DECs) UK Buildings regulations Zero Carbon by 2019 Climate Change Bill introduced by UK Government in November 2008 Reduction in emissions levels by 26-32% by 2020 and 60% by 2050 5 year carbon budgets UK Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) = Carbon cap/trade on Property portfolios that consumed > 6,000 kw/h per annum in 2008 Trend in Regulation and Legislation Increasingly onerous and weighted toward fiscal penalty rather than incentive By 2020 (compared to 1990)

7 Carbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency Scheme (CRC) CRC is a ‘cap and trade’ scheme ~ financial incentives/penalties for large occupiers + investors to improve energy efficiency Organisations with total electricity consumption over 6,000MW hrs/yr (typically £500,000 pa) A league table of performance will be published each year CRC brings carbon penalties to existing buildings in the UK Canary Wharf – lights at night Canary Wharf – thermal image

12 Why “Green” buildings will outperform If…Investment ImplicationsUnderlying Effects on ‘Green’ Assets Tenants prefer to occupy ‘green’ buildings Green assets let more quicklyRental growth higher and lower depreciation Shorter cash flow risk Green buildings = lower operating costs More tenant money is available for rent Rental growth higher and lower depreciation Government regulation and legislation ‘Greener’ assets de-risked as more attractive to and retain tenants better Lower risk premium than ‘brown’ buildings Investors have fiduciary duty to invest in ‘green’ buildings ‘Green’ properties = more liquid‘Green’ properties are more liquid + should attract a lower risk premium = higher value = “Green Alpha” Original Source: IIGCC
