Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
For four decades, the anthropogenic impact on the environment has been exceeding the yearly supply rate our planet has to provide us with natural resources. The real estate industry and all its market players constitute one of the most relevant economic sectors responsible for both the present climate change and its future development. In this context, sustainability and policies for adapting the impact of the real estate industry on the climate are essential. This Special Issue is dedicated to disseminating knowledge about sustainability across the real estate value chain: construction, life-cycle operational management, refurbishment, and deconstruction of buildings. The papers sought for in this Special Issue can focus on asset-specific empirical research, the application of new technologies and the measurement of policies.
Sustainability impacts the entire value chain of the real estate industry. The papers should not only focus on the quantification of regulatory changes, e.g., EU taxonomy, but also on the value of real estate and on the measurement of the willingness to pay for energy efficiency. This Special Issue also aims to shed light on the usage of new technologies, such as IoT, to measure and adapt the management of real estate. In addition, papers are encouraged to highlight investment strategies as a function of energy efficiency. The impact of externalities in the assessment of cost and benefits associated with real estate decisions builds up a relevant area of investigation. This Special Issue focuses on empirical papers, theoretical approaches, and extensive literature-oriented discussions. Extensive case studies backed with a strong theoretical foundation are accepted.
