CFP Green Buildings joins PCAF Regional Accredited Partner Program
The Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) announced its newest regional Europe & Central Asian Partner undergoing accreditation: CFP Green Buildings. This step reinforces CFP’s commitment to standardised carbon accounting and driving support for the financial sector in scaling sustainable retrofitting.
Supporting over 10 million buildings per year
Evaluating over 10 million buildings each year, CFP Green Buildings supports banks, investors, and property owners in lowering emissions and navigating regulatory changes. Once accredited through its partnership with PCAF, CFP will embed globally recognised GHG accounting methodologies into its Green Buildings Tool and other online tools, ensuring consistent and transparent emissions reporting across real estate portfolios.
A shared commitment to climate impact and transparency
Bart van Lunteren, PCAF Accredited Partner Lead commented: “We are delighted to welcome CFP Green Buildings as our newest Partner undergoing accreditation. We look forward to collaborating with them to advance the adoption of the PCAF Standard and support robust approaches to measuring and managing emissions from financial activities across the real estate industry.”
Nanda Verschoor, Head of International Operations at CFP Green Buildings said: “Our partnership with PCAF strengthens our ability to help clients make retrofitting both financially attractive and compliant with evolving regulations. By integrating PCAF’s carbon accounting standard into our tools, we offer clear insights into the CO2 impact and business case of energy-efficiency measures. This empowers banks and building owners to invest in retrofitting with confidence—combining climate impact, return on investment, and regulatory alignment in one approach.”
What the PCAF accreditation process involves
PCAF’s Accredited Partner program is a cornerstone of its mission to support consistent, comparable, and high-quality disclosures. The accreditation process involves a robust assessment of CFP’s software to ensure alignment with the PCAF Standard. Among other benefits, CFP gains access to the PCAF Database and ongoing support with the practical application of the PCAF Standard.
