We analyze the existing context of a neighborhood and its surroundings, then make recommendations for action to improve its sustainability on both a human and built scale.
We draw up an overall sustainability strategy and concept to guide the development of a new project or the transformation of an existing site.
We study the potential and the effort required to achieve sustainability certification at building or neighborhood level.
We support the entire process leading to a sustainability label for buildings and neighborhoods, from defining objectives to acquiring the final certificate.
We assess and develop ESG measures for your real estate assets, analyzing actions taken and defining a sustainability improvement plan.
Our team is made up of SNBS experts and auditors, and SEED integrators.
The costs of planning and building such a district will generally be 3 to 15% higher than for a standard project (source: Minergie/SNBS FAQs).
If sustainability is built into the DNA of the project from the outset, however, these costs will be offset by appropriate project design within the given budget.
What’s more, these costs need to be considered from a full life-cycle perspective, during which a sustainable project can be more competitive than a standard project in terms of operating costs, not to mention its attractiveness on the real estate market, which can attest to investors – and residents – that high sustainability standards have been met.
Our team can guide you towards the options best suited to your project and objectives.
Enoki focuses on Swiss certifications that take a holistic approach to sustainability, touching on society, the economy and the environment: SNBS Bâtiment et Quartier, SEED, SméO, SSREI, etc…
Integrating such a strategy into the early phases of your construction project (SIA 1) is crucial to fully exploiting the potential for sustainability and minimizing the associated additional costs.
By defining your objectives at an early stage, you can ensure a degree of control over subsequent phases, and provide a framework for designers, technical planners and other stakeholders right through to the operation of your project.
