SFV focuses on investing in high-growth companies with commercial revenues and validated product-market fit that are looking to scale. While the fund is independent and focused on generating returns, its strategic relationship with PATRIZIA gives us unique insights and perspective on this opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>One such insight has been the massive challenge around retrofitting our existing stock of buildings in order to achieve a lower carbon footprint. The reality is that retrofitting a building can cost more money than the energy savings can justify or that investors and tenants are prepared to pay. There are some old buildings that we can\u2019t entirely retrofit. Moreover, the carbon emissions associated with new buildings aren\u2019t going anywhere soon. In other words, as things stand, real estate companies will struggle to reach their carbon goals this decade.<\/p>\n<p>At SFV, we found two opportunities to address this problem with transformative technologies:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-fzms7h-91b13b853147d521a4d7831a445377a1\">\n#top .flex_column.av-fzms7h-91b13b853147d521a4d7831a445377a1{\nmargin-top:30px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_column.av-fzms7h-91b13b853147d521a4d7831a445377a1{\nmargin-top:30px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-fzms7h-91b13b853147d521a4d7831a445377a1 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_two_third  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ehvjzx-aac17e00c887db6ed5a4708ffc78aca2 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Gradient \u2013 Window heat pump<\/h2>\n<p>Heating and cooling are responsible for as many as 5 gigatonnes (Gt) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO\u2082e) emissions. As bad as this sounds, the more significant issue is that it is getting worse as rising temperatures, populations, and income levels will lead to many more air conditioners &#8211; and another 1 Gt in CO\u2082e emissions by 2050. Fossil-fuel heating systems continue to be installed faster than heat pumps. This is increasing global heating emissions and expanding the pool of buildings that will eventually need to be retrofitted. A big reason that heating and cooling emissions are trending in the wrong direction is that there is a lack of climate-friendly and easy-to-deploy solutions on the market.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ltfmjzn2-21ab233a7712e0db9a97545b0920d7cf\">\n#top .flex_column.av-ltfmjzn2-21ab233a7712e0db9a97545b0920d7cf{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_column.av-ltfmjzn2-21ab233a7712e0db9a97545b0920d7cf{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-ltfmjzn2-21ab233a7712e0db9a97545b0920d7cf av_two_third  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_third  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-i1qe5p-d417408c83de0c4af5c879114ac699bb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Enter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gradientcomfort.com\/\">Gradient<\/a>, which has created a heat pump that is as easy to install as a window air conditioning (AC) unit. The company has taken the two parts of a heat pump \u2014 the outdoor condenser and indoor evaporator \u2014 and combined them into a single piece of equipment that sits in a window without blocking views. The system removes the need for a professional installer or the cost and hassle of making holes in walls or installing an outdoor condenser. The solution is especially well designed for the multi-family residential space, particularly in older buildings in cities like New York, Seattle or London, which often lack an easy path for retrofitting. This challenge is notably acute for social housing, which often lacks air conditioning but are frequently seeing temperatures in excess of 90\u00b0F\/32\u00b0C. The New York City Housing Authority is keen to address this problem and recently awarded a $24M initial purchase order for Gradient\u2019s units. Several other US cities are watching this deployment closely. SFV invested in Gradient in 2022 to help fund the company as it scales up to meet the demand of what we expect to be a large and fast-growing market.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lteb137h-d2782f591f736dac2e96aaa6c6b3de8f\">\n#top .flex_column.av-lteb137h-d2782f591f736dac2e96aaa6c6b3de8f{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_column.av-lteb137h-d2782f591f736dac2e96aaa6c6b3de8f{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-lteb137h-d2782f591f736dac2e96aaa6c6b3de8f av_one_third  avia-builder-el-20  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_one_full  real_insights-zitat flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><div  class='avia-testimonial-wrapper av-lujjxzz8-40e8511cf4f927577e4653a161c933ae avia-grid-testimonials avia-grid-1-testimonials avia_animate_when_almost_visible av-minimal-grid-style av-boxed-grid-style' >\n<section class=\"avia-testimonial-row\"><div class='avia-testimonial av-lujjxydw-7f46c4cf47073a8411f1cd5d779ad277 avia-testimonial-row-1 avia-first-testimonial flex_column no_margin av_one_full'><div class='avia-testimonial_inner'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia-testimonial-content '><div class='avia-testimonial-markup-entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>\u201cFor investors willing to take a risk and identify transformative technologies, the rewards will be undeniable \u2013 for their returns, the built environment and the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"avia-testimonial-meta\"><div class=\"avia-testimonial-arrow-wrap\"><div class=\"avia-arrow\"><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta-mini'  itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-bvv7kt-2b9dd7a60eecc862e7395dd4c45d3f45 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_hr  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-3xakd-20eb7cb5e5b7b7576da0c1cbed0280d3 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Carbonfuture \u2013 Carbon removal credits<\/h2>\n<p>While real estate companies are focused on removing as much CO2e from their operations as possible, we aren\u2019t likely to achieve a 100% reduction or even the 50% reduction that PATRIZIA targets by 2030 with operational improvements alone. This is particularly true if you include embodied carbon from construction or retrofit processes that require concrete, steel or other building materials. So what are the options for real estate companies that are still keen to achieve their goals? We believe that carbon removal credits are a key piece of the puzzle.<\/p>\n<p>Carbon removal credits are tied to processes that actually pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (note this differs from carbon offsets, which are tied to reducing harmful practices like burning fossil fuels or cutting down trees \u2013 these reduce CO2 emissions but do not actually remove existing CO2). Microsoft, Alphabet and Swiss Re are among the big-name companies committed to using carbon removal credits. Still, we expect the list to grow quickly, particularly as more and more companies focus on removing carbon as opposed to offsetting carbon. Right now, the price per tonne of removed carbon is $100-150 (with much higher prices for technologies like direct air capture). If carbon removal technologies achieve a removal capacity of 500 megatonnes (Mt) by 2030 that implies a market size of $50-75 billion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbonfuture.earth\/\">Carbonfuture<\/a>, based in Freiburg, Germany, is an end-to-end platform for companies who want to participate in removing carbon from the atmosphere \u2013 and it is gaining increasing attention from the industry. The company\u2019s platform monitors carbon removal processes, and reports their impact using its own tracking platform with third-party certifications.
