Green Street’s private market research and data suite now covers nine sectors in the U.S. and six sectors in Europe.

“Investor perception of data center real estate has transitioned to ‘must have’ in the past few years. With sweeping digitization trends and its secular demand story in full bloom, the data center sector has years of optimism ahead and is arguably the best positioned property type across the globe over the next five years,” said David Guarino, Green Street lead analyst for the Data Center sector. “We’re bolstering our existing research to include several new European and U.S. markets in an effort to arm our clients with top-quality data as they make huge investments into the space.”

Green Street continues to invest in product innovation and its wealth of proprietary data to deliver more actionable insights across a growing number of sectors and markets.

Healthy group bookings and growing international travel are expected to power the next leg of lodging demand growth in major urban cities, despite a secular decline in business transient travel. Longer-term, leisure-oriented markets are positioned for outsized growth and expected returns.”

The post Green Street Expands Private Market Research & Data Solution with New Global Data Center and Lodging Coverage appeared first on Green Street.

Energy policy in Germany may be providing insight into the importance of nuclear power, and energy’s effect in real estate in general. New Green Street data delivers insights on Germany’s 2002 commitment to move away from nuclear power and the quick – and lasting – effects it has in the market. Further explanation of the reasons for (and issues with) these policies that are considered in Green Street’s forecasts will help illuminate the deeper implications of energy’s effects in real estate. 

As of April 15, 2023 Germany has decommissioned all their nuclear reactors. However, the so-called “green” initiative has not only had questionable effects on their energy production but actual green output as well. Beyond this, it will likely lead to serious market fluctuations in traditional German real estate sectors.  

Even though Europe is generally ahead of the U.S. by a decade when it comes to green energy initiatives, Germany is seeing carbon levels equal to that of 2015 (despite its push towards renewable energy sources). One major contributor to this is while other nations have pushed forward into nuclear energy, like France, Germany has essentially pulled out entirely. Instead, it has heavily invested in renewables such as solar, wind, hydro, and biomass. This, however, seems to have its own set of other challenges.  

According to the World Economic Forum, Germany averaged approximately 40% of its energy coming from renewable resources in 2023 (aside from nuclear power) and has now committed to a goal of 80% by 2030. What isn’t being accounted for in these new energy policies, however, is the residual load leftover after renewable sources and the unreliable fluctuations in energy production from renewable energy.  

Another factor that has been overlooked is the effect these energy sources have in real estate, not only the market but in natural land as well. For example, to match France’s current nuclear energy output in TWh output alone, Germany would need 40-120X the land area. This seems to be a bit of a step backwards in terms of the EU’s public stance on returning land to the environment. This new anti-nuclear energy policy places Germany at a serious handicap for industrial production, but also places them at a serious deficit of space and resources, often-unconsidered factors in energy’s effect in real estate. 

In contrast to Germany, France has continued to increase its investment in nuclear energy and has seen continued returns as it optimizes its power grid and maximizes energy production with minimal space. Germany’s backout will likely have compounded effects in real estate not only in the industrial sector, but the computing, residential, and raw land sectors as well. In general, the secondary effects of Germany’s policies have questionable ESG implications that seem to have been overlooked. ESG is a term used as an alternative for sustainability and socially responsible investing – aka: the consideration of environmental, social, and governance factors. Many brands even have a unique position on how to consider ESG factors in investment decisions. 

What seems to be missed here in both Germany’s energy policies and economists’ forecasts is that even though Germany has made a grand gesture in terms of nuclear safety, it hamstrings the country by creating a coal dependency to make up for the deficit while severely limiting their ability to expand industrially. Especially in the AI era where computing is expected to see massive growth, the need for nuclear-powered data centres is responding in suit – and the nation has made it very difficult to keep up. Coal and most other energy sources lose to nuclear in energy production as well as spatial density and cost-effectiveness. These factors contribute to Green Street’s forecasts for Germany’s traditional real estate in the near future. Given the spatial limitations and hampered industrial capabilities, Green Street’s already conservative stance on German real estate sectors will take a definitive shift if energy policies are not changed quickly. But it is safe to assume adjustments in rent forecasts from further exclusive insights. After all:  

“Energy is not an input into the economy, IT IS THE ECONOMY. Humanity organizes its economic activities to ensure a steady growth in the extraction and exploitation of primary energy because energy is life, standards of living are defined by how much energy is available to be exploited, and all humans everywhere are perpetually seeking a higher standard of living.” – Doomberg 

So then, what is likely to come of living standards, availability, and real estate valuation given the above energy policies? Click below for a sample report of Green Street’s deeper insights on the implications of each country’s commitment. You can also sign up for the upcoming ESG Webinar on “Recalibrating and Quantifying the “E” Impact on CRE” to learn more about the different factors considered in Green Street forecasting. It’s time we all start to consider shifting nuclear policies on a deeper level and what serious effects energy has in real estate.

Sector wise, Pan-European industrial experienced a similar fall in real pricing in the GHC (~29%) versus the entirety of the GFC peak-to-trough period (~29%). Given night-and-day better operating fundamentals today than in early ’09, industrial pricing now appears compelling relative to retail, residential or the office sectors, per our latest Commercial Property Outlook published last week. U.K. office, a notable underperformer during the GFC, has corrected as much as U.K. industrial, albeit the real decline of ~34% is still short of the ~41% fall seen during the GFC. Office pricing has the most relative downside of all four sectors.

It is important to remember that Green Street’s CPPI series for each of the four sectors outlined in the charts below track B/B+ quality real estate across each of the 30 metros under coverage in Europe. A-/A quality offices (predominantly the type of office real estate owned by listed REITs) have outperformed B/B+ during the GHC by ~10/15%, unlike in the GFC when office pricing dislocation was much more indiscriminate across both quality and location spectrums.

Some key takeaways from the report include:

• Factoring E into CRE underwriting has emerged as an increasingly important valuation input for both private and public investors.
• Most European property sectors are more E sensitive – or greener – due to more stringent regulations on the continent than in the U.S.
• The Data Center and Tower sectors are the most E-sensitive, while the Self-Storage and Manufactured Home sectors are the least E-sensitive.
• However, E sensitivity doesn’t directly translate to proportionate economic costs to owners as tenants may sometimes bear, directly or indirectly, the brunt of the green capital expenditures.
• REIT portfolios are greener than privately held real estate: REIT assets are 60% less energy intensive than the private market average across all sectors and geographies.

Ranking E Sector Sensitivity

Green Street’s approach to rank E sensitivity is to take a variety of inputs, including regulations and emissions intensity, and compare them across sectors with as little subjective input as possible. The weights represent what we consider the most meaningful E sensitivity factors.

Building Type Matters

The differences in emissions intensity across energy grids play a large role in determining property-level emissions. Differences across property sectors arguably matter at least twice as much as differences within property sectors. Green Street previously mapped energy intensity by property sector in the context of higher energy costs, but new data from Measurabl allows for a comparison of emissions intensity as well. The main takeaway: green concerns should matter more for those sectors in the upper right of the chart than those in the bottom left.

Regulatory Burden | U.S. – 30% Weight

Haircuts Needed: Assessing a sector’s “Green Regulation Score” requires an examination of the severity of the regulatory framework. The regulatory regime in the U.S. is localized at the state and city level. Overall, using the established frameworks in NYC, Boston, and D.C., the push for emissions reduction suggests 30% emission cuts are needed for the average property sector to avoid fines. That said, certain property sectors are facing larger emission reductions: the office sector, strips, and malls require slightly larger cuts than average.

Regulatory Burden | Europe – 30% Weight

A Nearly Zero World: Assessing Europe-wide regulatory burdens is difficult: national standards vary dramatically in timing, and property sector regulations may not be fully defined. That said, “nearly zero-energy buildings” (NZEBs) standards have been in-place for many countries for some time, which provides a useful framework for judging current building stock versus new requirements. Regional differences appear to matter more than residential versus commercial uses.

Underlying Grid “Greenness” – 10% Weight

U.S. Worse Off: Estimated REIT sector rollups were calculated based on average emission intensity of the grid. While energy intensity varies by property sector, diversity by underlying energy grids narrows the differences across property sectors. For example, US Data Centers’ global presence hedges the sector’s energy exposure. German Residential faces a more pollutive grid, driven by coal usage. Note that this data reflects a REIT’s average exposure to market grid emissions intensity and is not reflective of individual REIT’s utility choices and energy usage.

Among other data points, the pages of this report (not included in this blog) drive at the relative positioning of each sector on E sensitivity and especially the economic costs landlords should expect as there isn’t a direct correlation between high emissions intensity and the landlords that will be most negatively impacted economically.
