'The award adds one more jewel to TECOM Investments' crown; we congratulate Ali bin Towaih, Director of Sustainable Energy & Environment Division at TECOM Investments, and his team for their work that brought us this regional recognition', he added.
The recognition for TECOM Investments comes at an opportune time, following the approval of the Dubai Environmental Plan by His Highness Sheikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
The plan includes government's commitment to the concept of green building to be applied to future projects, facilities and government buildings. It aims at reducing carbon footprint, cutting down natural resources consumption, reducing operation cost while enhancing performance and creating a healthy living and working environment.
Ali bin Towaih, Director of Sustainable Energy & Environment Division at TECOM Investments, said: 'We have initiated the green building certification programme, which is designed for rating new and existing commercial, institutional, and high-rise residential structures. It evaluates environmental performance from a 'whole building perspective over a property's life cycle, providing a definitive standard for what constitutes a green building.'
'Our team has developed considerable expertise in implementing sustainable development in this part of the World and we would be happy to share this expertise with interested developers.' Bin Towaih added,
TECOM Investments is one of the largest green building developers in the world, with an existing two million built up area and approximately six million square feet in development.
TECOM Investments is actively supporting the Emirates Green Building Council as a Founder Member and assisting in developing a green building rating system for the UAE through its membership on the Technical & Awards Committee of the Council. |
