Over 71 percent of Catena's property portfolio meets EU taxonomy requirements

At the end of 2024, over 71 percent of Catena's property portfolio met the EU taxonomy requirements. Through investments in energy efficiency and climate risk analyses, we strive to combine sustainability with long-term profitability.

The EU taxonomy is a framework for sustainable finance aimed at classifying which economic activities are environmentally sustainable. By establishing common criteria, it facilitates comparisons of investment sustainability and helps prevent greenwashing.

For a building to be classified as green under the EU taxonomy, it must have an energy rating of A or be among the top 15 percent most energy-efficient properties according to the guidelines of Fastighetsägarna (the Swedish Property Federation). Additionally, a climate risk analysis must be conducted, and the entire company’s operations must comply with social minimum safeguards.

Amanda Thynell, Head of Sustainability at Catena

Amanda Thynell, Catena’s Head of Sustainability, explains the key figures and Catena’s results:

"By the end of 2024, more than 71 percent of our property portfolio met the taxonomy alignment requirements in terms of revenue."

"93 percent of capital expenditures (CAPEX) were aligned with the taxonomy, a figure that may fluctuate over time depending on the nature of assets at the time of acquisition. During 2024, we acquired several properties with an energy rating of A, low or no climate risk, and which are further assessed to align with the Do No Significant Harm (DNSH) requirements and meet the minimum safeguards."

Catena’s costs related to direct expenditures for property management, repairs, and maintenance (OPEX) for properties aligned with the taxonomy amount to 61 percent.

Catena’s high proportion of taxonomy-aligned properties is a clear sign of strength. It demonstrates that we can combine sustainability with profitability and are well-prepared for the future—while also meeting our customers’ needs for modern and energy-efficient logistics solutions.
