EU Taxonomy
Implement the EU Taxonomy pragmatically and establish efficient processes
The EU taxonomy aims to establish uniform criteria for the classification of sustainable economic activities and to continuously increase their share of the overall economy through corresponding reporting obligations.
agradblue guides its clients through the complex regulatory requirements and implications of the EU Taxonomy Regulation and supports them in its successful implementation from start to finish.
Our focus is on applying the technical criteria for individual buildings and portfolios, as well as conducting audits to ensure that there is no significant negative impact ("Do No Significant Harm"). We can also provide practical support in complying with the minimum social safeguards. We combine the regulatory requirements with your corporate strategy and develop suitable concepts to set the corresponding value creation levers in motion.
