USAA Real Estate, with approximately $26 billion of real estate assets under management, provides co-investment, acquisition, build-to-suit, and development capital for corporate and institutional investors. The USAA Real Estate portfolio consists of multifamily, industrial, office, and hotel properties as well as e-commerce logistics and distribution centers, media production facilities, and data centers.

As a Better Buildings Challenge (BBC) partner and long-standing leader in energy efficiency and sustainability, USAA Real Estate continues to support improved energy performance in buildings and demonstrate the business case for sustainability. USAA Real Estate is committing 22 million square feet of building space it directly controls to the BBC but will continue energy efficiency efforts within its entire portfolio of approximately 70 million square feet.

For the assets owned each year, in alignment with its goal of reducing energy use by 5% per year, USAA Real Estate will pursue energy-reducing projects, implement performance-enhancing operations within its portfolio, and work with the Better Buildings Challenge to demonstrate the results and successes of these projects.

USAA Real Estate achieved their initial reduction goal in 2020 and set a goal for an additional 20% of savings by 2030 using a 2019 baseline.
