Environmental sustainability
Molto is committed to creating properties that deliver long-term value while reducing environmental impact. Across our portfolio, we integrate efficient systems, renewable energy strategies, and utility-backed programs that strengthen performance for our tenants and investors.
LEED certification
Molto pursues LEED certification on select developments to achieve verifiable environmental performance. These efforts focus on reducing water use and energy consumption, improving indoor air quality, and incorporating recycled and sustainable building materials to meet recognized sustainability standards and deliver measurable benefits.
Impact:
- Reduced energy use, water consumption, and waste by more than 20%, resulting in lower utility costs
- Increased property value, with certified buildings often achieving a significant sale premium
- Healthier indoor environments that support well-being and productivity
- Water-efficient landscaping and plumbing systems that reduce potable water demand
- Energy-efficient building practices, including commissioning and performance-focused building systems
- Improved indoor air quality through ventilation standards and construction-phase air quality management
- Responsible material and waste practices, including recycling infrastructure and waste reduction strategies
EV charging stations
Molto continues to incorporate EV charging infrastructure across new developments to meet growing tenant needs and evolving market expectations. In California, EV charging is integrated early in the planning process to support long-term functionality and sustainability goals.
Impact:
- Lower operating and maintenance costs
- Access to meaningful incentives
- Support for environmental compliance
- Improved employee satisfaction and retention
- Improved air quality and reduced greenhouse gas emissions
ComEd Energy Efficiency Program
Molto participates in the ComEd Energy Efficiency Program to improve building performance and reduce long-term energy consumption. The program provides technical guidance and incentives for new construction and renovation projects that improve comfort and reduce energy use in warehouse and industrial developments. Molto has also expanded these efforts in Texas by working with Oncor to optimize utility efficiency and reduce costs.
Tenant Benefits:
- Reduced electricity costs
- Improved HVAC performance and comfort
- Added operational value without increased rent
- Support for company sustainability goals
Solar installations
Molto integrates solar solutions where they provide meaningful value or meet local requirements. At Perry Commerce Center, solar installation achieves California’s expanded 2023 mandate for industrial and commercial buildings and contributes to long-term energy efficiency.
