Energy Management
Ayala Land actively manages its energy consumption by incorporating energy-efficient designs and technologies and ensuring effective property management practices in all our developments. In adopting innovative technologies and strategies for enhancing energy efficiency throughout the organization, we reduce further our overall energy consumption as we work towards our long-term emissions reduction targets.
Total energy consumption, which encompasses both electricity and fuel consumption, amounted to 1.28 million Megawatt-hour (MWh), representing a 5.8% reduction from 2023. This decrease was attributed to the transition of more properties to energy efficient technologies and renewable energy sources as well as reduction in utilization of generator sets which use diesel fuel
Renewable Energy
The share of renewable energy to total electricity consumption slightly increased from 81% to 82% due to the shift towards renewable energy sources in the company's power purchase agreements.
The company’s main strategy to reduce emissions involves shifting to renewable energy (RE) sources through power purchase agreements from Green Electricity Suppliers with quality RE certificates through the Department of Energy's (DOE) Green Energy Option Program (GEOP).
We have transitioned 96% of the gross leasable area (GLA) of our commercial properties which include offices, malls and hotels to RE sources end of 2024. A total of 101 commercial properties are powered by renewable energy.
Green Building Leadership and Portfolio
Ayala Land's commitment to environmental stewardship has been a cornerstone for any project development, recognizing the importance of integrating green building practices into its real estate products to enhance site resilience, reduce resource consumption, and ensure green spaces for its users.
In 2007, Ayala Land became a founding member of the Philippine Green Building Council (PhilBGC), aiming to promote the adoption of green building standards across the country. Ayala Land continues to be an active member of the PhilGBC.
Our estates developments are currently applying for PhilGBC BERDE District certification.
Furthering our commitment to energy conservation and sustainable design, we've expanded our green building portfolio this 0224 with 24 offices awarded the EDGE Advance and EDGE Zero Carbon certification, bringing our total for green-certified properties within Ayala Land's portfolio to 29 properties, covering 979,629 square meter of gross floor area.
Looking forward, all future projects and developments will be guided by our environmental policies and green building standards with the goal of securing a green building certification.
