In the last years ESG Verification and the EU Taxonomy have gained importance in the building and real estate sector. As Europe's largest network for sustainable building, the DGNB is pleased to be part of that development. A recent webinar invited listeners on a deep dive into the practical implementation of the EU Taxonomy for existing buildings, featuring insights from industry experts in Ireland and Germany. The session kicked off with an introduction to DGNB and the Irish Green Building Council’s (IGBC) ESG Verification for the EU Taxonomy and IGBC’s pilot phase, followed by a detailed look at four years of taxonomy implementation in Germany and the first learnings from the pilot phase in Ireland. Speakers shared their experiences with the EU Taxonomy for acquisitions, ownership, and reporting, as well as practical implementation. The webinar concluded with a live Q&A session, offering participants a chance to engage with the experts.
