In 2014, six energy assessments were carried out by UMG. They involved
UMG’s five main facilities in the United Kingdom and one in Poland. The
assessments on UMG’s four main facilities in the United Kingdom were
conducted by the leading commercial real estate services firm, CBRE (CB
Richard Ellis). These assessments led to a detailed energy diagnostic with
a view to investment during 2015 to reduce the energy imprint of those
buildings.
GVT used an outside provider to conduct an energy assessment to
evaluate possible cost reductions for 41 buildings across the country. The
results will be known in early 2015.
