Responsibility has always been at the heart of our approach to property management. Today, we also talk about ESG – and it creates value.
ESG stands for Environment, Social and Governance, and provides a structured framework for working with environmental impact, social responsibility, and corporate governance. Through our Energy & Environment department, we ensure responsible and efficient property management – from energy optimisation and climate reporting to certifications and strategic advisory.
ESG is an integrated part of our daily operations, and for us, it is first and foremost a natural extension of the responsibility we already take for properties, residents, and the environment.
Emil
ESG Manager, CEJ
In our Energy and Environment department, we turn ESG ambitions into practical actions.
Our goal is to make a complex area clear and value-creating – for boards, property owners, and investors – so that change can be implemented on a secure foundation.
We ask the right questions and deliver solutions tailored to your specific needs, opportunities, and ambitions. With deep expertise and CEJ’s high standards, we ensure responsible, efficient, and future-proof property management.
ESG is just one of many new concepts in modern property management – and it is an area in constant change.
We closely follow both developments and legislation. With solid hands-on experience from working with both Danish and international investors and associations, we implement the change so you can achieve your goals within ESG and responsible property management.
Our services are broad in scope and fully comprehensive – as illustrated by the following key areas.
ESG goals define what you aim to achieve within the area of ESG.
This area is not solely about legislation – it also encompasses the broader ambitions and aspirations that guide your work.
Over the years, we have helped both Danish and international clients develop ESG strategies and targets – always tailored to their specific position and level of ambition.

Certifications open the door to development and dialogue. They provide a comprehensive overview of your property and clarify a roadmap for future improvements. In this way, certifications serve as both a reflection of your current status and a statement of where you want to go.
Services offered:
Legal requirements on one hand, and the desire to document results on the other, create a need for objective climate reporting.
These reports can also serve as valuable guidance and decision-making tools.
Services offered:
When legal requirements meet the desire to document results, the need for objective reporting emerges. At CEJ, we are committed to staying ahead of the curve and have developed a wide range of reports within the fields of climate, energy, and the environment – including climate reports, CREEM/CAR analyses, and ROSI reports.
At CEJ, we take responsibility towards our clients, employees, suppliers, and the wider community.
Our approach, focus areas, and results are outlined in our Responsibility Report, which also provides an overview of the specific initiatives taken throughout the year across the E, S, and G area.
Solar panels are a major topic we are frequently asked about. At CEJ, we are passionate about solutions where responsibility, sound economics, and aesthetics go hand in hand. That’s why we also work with the latest innovative technologies – such as roof tiles with integrated solar panels.

At CEJ, we view energy optimisation as a holistic effort – not only focusing on reducing energy consumption but also ensuring a healthy and comfortable indoor environment for residents.
Effective insulation and airtightness are key components of energy optimisation, but they must never come at the expense of indoor climate.
Factors such as ventilation, air quality, humidity, and the risk of mould must therefore be carefully considered. At CEJ, this balance is a natural part of our approach, and we consistently integrate it into every project we carry out.
