GREEN PARTNERS; REITWeek DAY ONE
June 8, 2011
Sustainability continues to surge as both tenants and landlords recognize the inherent value it can play within business, says SL Green director of sustainability Jay Black; he'll be speaking atBisnow’s NY Sustainability Summit on June 17. |
Power will continue to dominate this as prices rise and all sides look for ways to help the bottom line—landlords are focusing on core retrofits, while tenants look for easy ways to reduce use. The No. 1 technology to emerge from this is LED lighting, and those seeking a mid-term strategy for savings are sure to buy in, Jay says. Green leases will also be pushed to the forefront, focusing on the interaction, obligations, and responsibilities between landlords and tenants in sustainability, driving new lease clauses and language.
