”Although the construction sector is threatened by large price fluctuations, unpredictable legislative changes, raw material shortages, the number and variety of projects contracted for sustainability services in 2022, which will run for the next 2-3 years, shows us that developers will continue with their investment plans in which sustainability has a very important place. It is not only the number of projects that has increased dramatically in recent years, but also developers' ambitions for ever higher level certifications,” said Adrian Pop, general manager of ADP green building.
Last year, ADP green building has provided consultancy services for the 108 BREEAM certifications, which is roughly 60% of all green certifications obtained by developers across Romania.
