Stoneweg US began understanding what our emissions are by benchmarking. Our primary tool for benchmarking is Energy Star Portfolio Manager. Our second priority is engagement. We share our goals, educate, and incentivize our staff, service providers & investors around sustainability. The third aspect of our strategy is integrating our capital investment strategy to promote making high-efficiency mechanical and appliance replacements a routine part of all business plans, as well as adding on-site renewable sources of energy such as solar. The final step is to be transparent with our stakeholders about the results of our actions and to seek continuous improvement in the process to achieve our emissions reduction goals.

In addition to GHG emissions and energy reduction goals, Stoneweg US has set bold water efficiency goals. We are striving to have a weighted portfolio average Water Score with respect to net rentable area of 75 or higher and to be in the top 25% water efficient multifamily portfolios in the US.
