Real estate giant JLL announced that it was offering decarbonization consulting along with software-as-a-service (SaaS) technology called Carbon Pathfinder, intended to provide "investment planning insights to support carbon reduction goals," according to a company press release.

"Carbon Pathfinder is a dynamic decarbonization planning technology that forecasts climate transition risk for investors and occupiers to plan capital projects and evaluate return on investment," the release said. "Producing insights at both the portfolio and individual building level, Carbon Pathfinder allows companies to assess performance against science-based targets, create actionable decarbonization plans and use data to inform prioritization and capital allocation decisions."

And email for the company said this would be the first time that business leaders and real estate decision makers could have access to portfolio sustainability data down to the individual building level. They would have a comprehensive view of carbon footprints, "with the ability to create actionable decarbonization roadmaps and maximize sustainability investments while minimizing risk."
