Sector applications

Different commercial properties.{' '} Different energy profiles.

Commercial real estate spans very different operating profiles — from single-tenant offices to multi-tenant plazas, mixed-use developments to retail centres, flex industrial to large REIT portfolios. Each calls for a different sequencing of measures.

Not sure which property type best describes your asset?{' '} That’s usually the right place to start a conversation. {' '} A 20-minute call is enough to map your portfolio load profile against the right scope of work.

Our discovery process

Start with a conversation.{' '} Not a commitment.

Most commercial real estate assets already have enough utility and operational data to identify meaningful energy-saving opportunities. The first step is understanding how the asset consumes power across tenant operations, common areas, and base building systems — and where the strongest financial opportunities exist.

{/* Step 01 */}
STEP 01

Quick 20-minute discovery call.

We review your asset type, portfolio profile, BEPS exposure, lease structure, and current energy concerns. No commitment required.

{/* Step 02 */}
STEP 02

12 months of utility bills.

Interval and utility billing data — covering at least one full cooling season — help identify:

We provide high-level insight into where solar, storage, LED lighting, recommissioning, or energy audits may create NOI and long-term value — alongside applicable incentive and ITC pathways.

The math is mechanical: NOI ÷ cap rate = asset value, so a permanent reduction in electricity expense compounds into the long-term valuation. For a fully owner-operated building, the impact is direct; for net-leased assets, the structure depends on how electricity costs flow through to tenants." }, { q: 'What is BEPS and why does it matter for Ontario commercial real estate?', a: "BEPS — the Building Emissions Performance Standard — sets carbon-intensity limits for large commercial buildings on a defined compliance schedule.\n\nFailing to meet the standard attracts penalties, and increasingly affects financing access and institutional-investor disclosure requirements. On-site solar reduces a building's grid electricity consumption and the associated GHG emissions intensity — the input to BEPS calculations. The energy audit produces the documentation BEPS reporting requires." }, { q: 'How is solar economic for a multi-tenant building where tenants pay their own electricity?', a: "The structure depends on the lease.\n\nWhere the landlord pays for common-area electricity, solar offsets that load directly. Where tenants pay separately, options include sizing solar to common-area load only, on-bill arrangements, or virtual net metering structures where applicable. We model the economics against your specific lease structure during the discovery process — most owners are surprised at how favourable the math is even on net-lease structures." }, { q: 'What payback period should commercial real estate owners expect?', a: "On completed Green Integrations CRE projects, simple payback has typically ranged from 5–8 years before incentives, and 4–7 years after the federal Clean Technology ITC and accelerated CCA depreciation are applied.\n\nThe project IRR is what matters more than payback — and against a 30-year asset financial model, well-structured CRE energy projects typically deliver IRRs that exceed most other capital improvements on the asset." }, { q: 'What incentives apply to commercial real estate energy projects in Canada?', a: "The full federal and provincial stack applies.\n\nHeadline programmes include the federal Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit (up to 30%), Enhanced First-Year CCA (100% accelerated depreciation), provincial saveONenergy / Save on Energy LED retrofit incentives, and IESO Demand Response programmes for assets with battery storage or flexible loads. We screen eligibility during the assessment and manage applications end-to-end alongside the project." }, ]; const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(0); return (

Start your assessment

Plan around your asset. Not against it.

A CRE asset assessment identifies what’s addressable across HVAC, lighting, rooftop solar, EV charging, and recommissioning — and what the combined picture looks like once federal and provincial incentives are applied.
