  • 1 This scope concerns the AuM of the KPI 'CO₂e footprint reduction investments', for a.s.r. asset management.
  • 2 For countries such as the United States, Japan and Australia we were able to assess their emissions profile in line PCAF Global Consultation, unlike last year. The CO₂e is calculated on a 'best effort' basis with the data of Vigeo Eiris, Eurostat en Bloomberg.
  • 3 This figure differs from the figure reported in chapter 2.5.1 (96%) as that figure is the percentage of the carbon footprint calculated of the entire investment portfolio for its own account.

  • 1 This indicator has been part of reasonable assurance.
  • 2 Calculation concern 89% of AuM for own account. Relatively limited data for the asset class retail, due to i.e. privacy issues, lack of agreements with tenants and limited use of smart meters.
    Carbon calculations are based on the total energy consumption in kWh per m² per year of all objects in the portfolio that have been in operation throughout the calendar year.
    Carbon data of funds DCRF, DPRF, DSPF and Other is based on energy consumption in 2020, excluding Archimedeslaan, head office of a.s.r., for which the energy consumption 2021 is known, the head office is included in Other.
    Data resources are smart meters from Fudura, other smart meters and annual energy consumption by the grid operators.
    The total energy consumption in kWh per m² per year of all objects in the portfolio that have been in operation throughout the calendar year, is the sum of the amount of electricity (in kWh), district heating in GJ and gas (in m³) that is converted into kWh. The total energy consumption in kWh per m² per year is converted per type of energy source (www.co2emissiefactoren.nl).
    The figures of DFLF have been determined on the basis of generic calculation rules per soil type and per use.

  • 1 This indicator has been part of reasonable assurance.
  • 2 These calculations are in accordance with PCAF Methodology. Calculation concern 98% of total Mortgage portfolio. No data available of homes under construction, houses that do not (yet) have an energy label and houses of which it is impossible to secure reliable data such al building year and type of dwelling. Data resources are services partner Stater, RVO, Calcasa (label, type of house and year of construction), and CBS (energy consumption). In the calculation for 2021 a Loan to Value (LTV) correction was used, this was also done for the 2020 figures, the 2020 figures are restated compared to the Annual Report 2020. This means that the carbon footprint calculation takes into account the percentage of the mortgage in relation to the value of the home. Only the percentage of the mortgage in relation to the value of the home is allocated to the CO₂e emissions of a.s.r.

  • 1 The figures are based on a.s.r.’s head office (91,912 m2 gross floor area). The offices in Enschede (1,830 m2 gross floor area), Rotterdam (approx.1,000 m2 gross floor area of office space and 3,900 m2 gross floor area of archives) Heerlen (2.815 m2 gross floor area) and Hoorn (3.745 m2 gross floor area) are not included.
