The Rise of Green Certification
The LOTUS Green Building Rating System has seen a 40% increase in registrations over the past two years.
Key Drivers of Change

- Tenant demand — Multinational corporations increasingly require certification
- Cost savings — 20-30% lower operational costs
Implications for Cost Management
