We will reduce operational and embodied carbon across MEP systems on all projects, targeting zero by 2040, and will report progress annually. We will request low-GWP refrigerants, request EPDs in project specifications for MEP system components, and participate in quarterly MEP 2040 forums and CLF community discussions.

Rushing commits to advocating for emissions reductions and establishing procedures for tracking embodied, operational, and refrigerant emissions in our projects. Given the current state of data on whole-life MEP emissions, the path to total decarbonization is still being discovered. Today, we are taking actions to help establish this path. Tasks in our Company Plan were created to set ourselves up for success in the future when more MEP whole-life emissions data is available and to help usher in this future through advocacy for low-carbon MEP solutions with manufacturers and project owners.
