Energy (302-1, 302-3, 302-4, IF-RE-130a.2, IF-RE-130a.3)
In 2022, we launched an ESG data intelligence platform, which measures our energy consumption based directly on our energy receipts, and calculates scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in real time, enhancing the transparency and reliability of our data.
In 2022, the total energy consumption of our organization was 167,735 GJ, broken down as follows:
| Consumption of fossil fuels | |
|---|---|
| Fuel | Consumption (GJ) |
| Diesel | 796 |
| Gasoline | 3 |
| LP Gas | 118 |
| Total | 917 |
| Electricity consumption | |
|---|---|
| Consumption (kWh) | Consumption (GJ) |
| 46,338,389 | 166,818 |
| Energy intensity (GJ/m2) | |
|---|---|
| 2019 base year | 2022 |
| 0.22 | 0.18 |
We have reduced our energy intensity by 18% from our base year (2019).

Water (303-1, 303-3, 303-4, 303-5, IF-RE-140a.2, IF-RE-140a.3, IF-RE-140a.4)
Because most of our developments are located in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA), a water stressed region, we continually monitor and track our impact, and create initiatives to significantly save on our consumption.
In 2022, total water consumption in the organization was 793.8 megaliters (Ml), which breaks down as follows:
| Consumption (Ml) | |
|---|---|
| Municipal water | 449 |
| Tanker trucks | 345 |
| Total | 794 |
Our consumption increased last year because it was our first year of full activity since the pandemic. That is why we are using 2019 as a base year, and compared to that number, we have reduced our water consumption by a significant 27%.
Most of our buildings have wastewater treatment plants and reuse treated water in toilets, green areas and cooling towers. Out of the total amount of water consumed, the wastewater treatment plants in our buildings treated the following amounts:
| Responsible water consumption | |
|---|---|
| Total (Ml) | |
| Treated water | 447 |
| Reused water | 155 |
| Treated water not reused | 292 |
| % of treated water reused | 35% |
The SASB indicator regarding the percentage of tenants who independently meter their water consumption is provided for in our rental contracts. The corresponding clause stipulates that “The amount paid for public water supply including, if applicable, the water outlet corresponding to the retail space, must be paid promptly by the tenant. If the lessor has already paid these amounts, the tenant must pay the amount corresponding to the space within 10 (ten) business days following the date on which the respective payment was requested.”
This measure encourages our tenants to responsibly manage their water consumption, which has benefits for the environment because, as we mentioned, Mexico City is located in a high water-stress region.

| Real expense of consumption | $48,043,314 |
| Recovery of consumption | $41,912,357 |

Waste (306-1, 306-2, 306-3, 306-4, 306-5)
Waste management is one of the key ways we contribute to environmental care because it positively impacts our entire value chain. We have methods for separation and responsible disposal of waste in all our operations. Recyclable materials are transferred to various suppliers, who use them as an input in a number of processes, supporting a circular economy model.
In 2022, we generated a total of 14,805 metric tons of non-recyclable waste. This indicator covers 98.5% of our GLA.
Parque Toreo
In 2022, we sent 1,365 metric tons of waste from our operations to recycling, as indicated in the following table.
| Recycled waste (metric tons) | |
|---|---|
| Hangers | 14.66 |
| Wood pallets | 3 |
| Cardboard | 1,311.27 |
| Aluminum | 1.46 |
| PET | 8.57 |
| Other plastics | 14.59 |
| Scrap | 5.93 |
| Dead files | 8.23 |
| Total weight of recycled waste | 1,364.72 |
| Total waste monetization | $1,968,402 |
The amount of hazardous waste we generate depends directly on the amount of preventive maintenance carried out during the year, as well as the number of collections requested of our specialized supplier. We confine and store hazardous waste until we accumulate enough to make collection viable. According to official standards, this cannot be longer than six months.
| Hazardous waste generated (t) | |
|---|---|
| LED strips | 0.02 |
| Electronic lighting | 1.19 |
| Used light bulbs | 0.10 |
| T5 and T8 lamps | 1.58 |
| Cleaning rags | 0.30 |
| Fluorescent lights | 0.59 |
| Empty containers and buckets | 0.37 |
| Paint buckets | 1.37 |
| Used batteries | 0.085 |
| Contaminated paint thinner | 0.019 |
