Measurabl Achieves PCAF Accreditation

Offering Financed Emissions Reporting Aligned with Leading Industry Standard

We’re excited to announce that Measurabl has joined the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) Accredited Partner Program, earning PCAF accreditation across our ESGx data products. Financial institutions now have a direct path to fulfill their industry commitments and deliver on requests from asset managers for financed emissions reporting across equity, debt, and insurance portfolios.

Over 700 financial institutions representing $100 trillion in AUM have committed to reporting financed carbon emissions in alignment with PCAF. Financed emissions disclosures tripled from 2020 to 2024, often driven by requests from asset managers. The vast majority of financial institutions do not have access to actual carbon emissions data from real estate assets across their financed portfolios. This lack of data and reporting becomes a competitive liability, as 48% of banks now report financed emissions.

Measurabl’s ESGx products now deliver emissions reporting in alignment with PCAF at the building and portfolio levels for U.S. and Canada real estate. By using PCAF-aligned estimates, calculated using Measurabl’s Quantum dataset of 23 billion square feet of real estate across 90 countries, Measurabl’s ESGx products enable consistent, comparable analysis at scale. 

This partnership validates the rigor and transparency of our approach and strengthens trust with financial institutions, investors, and other market participants. It also reinforces Measurabl’s role in supporting consistent, comparable, and decision-grade emissions data for commercial real estate portfolios—particularly in cases where financial institutions lack direct access to measured energy data or operational control of assets.

“As financed emissions and climate risk become central to investment and reporting decisions, alignment with the PCAF Standard is increasingly important for our customers, Our partnership with PCAF reinforces Measurabl’s commitment to delivering trusted, standards-aligned sustainability data that supports consistent, credible, and decision-grade reporting.” – Mike Zatz, SVP, Global Data Ecosystem & Partnerships at Measurabl

Measurabl’s data covers the ~365 publicly traded property companies included in the FTSE EPRA NAREIT Dev Index (listed equity and corporate bonds) and is used in the construction of the FTSE EPRA NAREIT Green and Carbon Target Indices. 

Strengthening Customer Outcomes

The partnership strengthens Measurabl’s ability to support asset owners, asset managers, and financial institutions that are calculating and reporting financed emissions across real asset portfolios.

PCAF accreditation gives customers:

  • Clear proof that Measurabl’s data and methodologies align with a widely adopted global standard.
  • Confidence that financed emissions inputs can be used for reporting and analysis.
  • Trust in Measurabl as a partner committed to methodological rigor, auditability, and ongoing alignment as standards evolve.

This reduces friction for customers, supports consistent reporting, and reinforces Measurabl’s role as a trusted, long-term sustainability data partner. Further, this Measurabl data is available on the ~365 publicly traded property companies included in the FTSE EPRA NAREIT Dev Index (listed equity and corporate bonds) and used in the construction of the FTSE EPRA NAREIT Green and Carbon Target Indices.

Why the Partnership Is Timely

The partnership is particularly timely given the accelerating expectations on financial institutions to measure and disclose financed emissions using consistent, standards-based methodologies. Regulatory scrutiny, investor expectations, and voluntary climate commitments are increasing the need for comparable, decision-grade data across real estate portfolios.

As sustainability data becomes more closely tied to capital allocation and risk management—not just disclosure—alignment with PCAF ensures Measurabl is supporting customers with methodologies that are relevant, current, and widely accepted. 

At the same time, many financial institutions face practical data gaps—especially in commercial real estate—where direct access to measured energy data or operational control of assets is limited. Alignment with PCAF standards helps address these challenges by enabling scalable, PCAF-aligned emissions estimates that can be used today, while supporting a pathway toward improved data quality and greater use of measured data over time.

Building a Connected Sustainability Data Ecosystem

Progress in sustainability reporting depends on customers, investors, policymakers, standards bodies, and solution providers working together around shared, trusted and consistent data. In 2025, Measurabl continued to deepen its ecosystem partnerships with organizations including USGBC California, Green Building Council of Australia, EPRA, NAREIT, INREV, GRESB, and CRREM—strengthening alignment across the global real estate ecosystem.

Measurabl also welcomed Mike Zatz as SVP, Global Data Ecosystem & Partnerships, bringing decades of experience building the most trusted, widely adopted sustainability data system to help guide this work.In addition, Measurabl launched its Free Sustainability Solution, lowering barriers to access for tracking and benchmarking building-level energy, water, waste, and carbon data, and enabling broader participation across the market. To date, more than 14,000 buildings representing over 3 billion square feet across 44 countries have onboarded onto the Free Solution. With every new customer and partner, the Measurabl dataset becomes more complete, more comparable, and more useful—reinforcing its role as a trusted foundation for sustainability data used across reporting, investment, and disclosure workflows.
