Acuity’s Atrius Recognized as Top Sustainability Technology Provider

ATLANTA – Atrius, part of Acuity Brands, Inc., announced it has received two awards recognizing the brand as a top technology provider in the commercial real estate (CRE) sector from award programs hosted by industry publications Commercial Property Executive (CPE) and CREtech. These awards join previous wins from organizations such as Juniper Research and Environment+Energy Leader recognizing the brand’s commitment to creating sustainable, efficient buildings in the CRE, airport, manufacturing and other industries.

CPE named Atrius the Most Innovative Technology silver winner at its annual Influence Awards, announced today during CPE’s virtual celebration. The program recognizes excellence across the CRE industry including technology, property design and individuals’ accomplishments. In addition, CREtech selected Atrius as one of three finalists in its Real Estate Tech Awards (RETAs) in the Mature Growth category in October. The RETAs honor up to 12 technology vendors a year, from startups to public companies, that are advancing solutions for commercial buildings. Both programs recognized Atrius for its energy management platform, Atrius Energy and its carbon accounting and reporting software, Atrius Sustainability. CPE also recognized Atrius Wayfinder, the brand’s indoor mapping solution for its insights on occupant movement within a space.

“Our work within the CRE space is helping building operators save on energy costs, reduce their properties’ carbon emissions and create awareness of how these initiatives positively impact their tenants’ operations,” said Sandeep Modhvadia, Vice President, Product Management, Atrius, Acuity Brands. “The Atrius suite of products provides unparalleled insights into portfolios to maximize building performance, improve tenants’ experiences and support ESG commitments to fight climate change. We’re honored to receive this back-to-back industry recognition.”

“With buildings generating nearly 40% of the world’s annual carbon emissions, we recognize Cushman & Wakefield plays a vital role in shaping a sustainable future for real estate. The ability to track, monitor, and report the sustainability performance of buildings under management is critical to meeting our goal of net zero value chain emissions by 2050,” said Jessica Francisco, Global Head of Sustainability for Global Occupier Services at Cushman and Wakefield. “Through our partnership with Atrius, we deliver data-driven sustainability solutions that unlock valuable insights for our clients.
