By 2025, more than a third of the energy consumed by properties managed by Granit Asset Management will be sourced from renewable energy. The cooperation between Grandum Property Management and Parkl has resulted in the implementation of energy efficiency solutions alongside a smart parking and mobility system for tenants at the Alkotás Point office building.


"Our investment strategy, built on ESG principles, gives a central role to real estate developments that deliver results in energy efficiency, digitalization, and the reduction of environmental burden. It is no coincidence that 35 percent of the energy consumed by the properties we manage is already sourced from renewable resources in 2025," emphasized Álmos Mikesy, Chairman and CEO of Granit Asset Management.

The greening of Grandum Property Management's real estate portfolio is taking place on several levels, highlighting technical modernizations aimed at energy efficiency and digitalization. The PANDA energy management software, which tracks and optimizes energy consumption with real-time data, has been introduced across the office buildings, while Building Management System (BMS) technologies also support operations.

Mechanical systems are being renewed almost everywhere. The conversion of lighting systems to LED technology has been completed in common areas, and several office buildings, such as the Green House and V17 office buildings, already feature solar panel systems. The Tabán, Infopark A, and E office buildings are undergoing complex mechanical modernizations, the introduction of smart building management systems, the installation of electric vehicle charging stations, and the development of cycling infrastructure.

"We are committed to implementing sustainable solutions in every property we manage. Energy efficiency, digital building management, and the introduction of technologies not only protect the environment but also enhance the comfort and cost-effectiveness for our tenants," stated Kornélia Sára Lukács, Managing Director of Grandum Property Management. Beyond energy efficiency, the Parkl smart mobility system has been introduced at the Alkotás Point office building. "Our goal is that by optimizing parking space utilization and electric car charging, everyone wins," said Zsolt Somogyi, Founder and CEO of Parkl.
