Property
To make space for greatness, Goodman focuses on securing key sites for properties that will stand the test of time. We know that well-located, designed and managed properties are better prepared for the challenges of tomorrow. They are more flexible to meet customer needs, support their ongoing health and well-being, and are more resilient to climate impacts and generally experience higher occupancy rates. This maximises their asset value and is a sign that the properties are being used efficiently.
While our target is to use 100% renewable energy by 2025, this will be influenced by regional policies and energy markets. Our increasing proportion of rooftop solar, lighting upgrades and a raft of other energy efficiency measures will all contribute to our projected carbon neutral status.

- Sustainable design and management
- Strategic locations
- Customer attraction and retention
- Climate risk and resilience
- Carbon reduction strategies
- Smart energy solutions
- Flexible and adaptable properties.
Target
100% renewable energy use within our operations by 2025
Progress
Increased use of renewable energy globally, primarily in rooftop solar investments and installations
Commenced programme to purchase offset renewable energy
Target
100MW of solar PV in operation by 2025
Progress
Approximately 40MW of solar PV installed on Goodman’s rooftops globally
This includes 4MW of solar PV installed in Japan and Continental Europe this year
Design underway for further solar installations in all regions
Target
Carbon neutral operations by 2025
Progress
Continued investment in on-site and off-site solar energy and other efficiency projects
Continued roll out of energy efficiency measures including energy tracking, LED lighting upgrades, translucent roof sheeting and sub-metering
Investigating offsetting to achieve carbon neutral day-to-day operations (excluding development activities)
Target
Maintain >95% overall occupancy rate
Progress
Assessed average occupancy rate at 98% (target set at >95% in acknowledgement that external factors cause occupancy rates to fluctuate).
