STEPS

The global push to meet aggressive decarbonization goals and achieve netzero emissions by 2050 is intensifying , and commercial buildings are at the forefront of this movement . As the built environment accounts for a substantial portion of global carbon emissions , there is a growing recognition that energy efficiency is the cornerstone of any effective decarbonization strategy . While advanced technologies like renewable energy , hydrogen , and carbon capture grab the spotlight , energy efficiency remains mostly as an unsung hero - a low-hanging fruit that not only reduces emissions but also slashes operational costs , paving the way for deeper decarbonization .
