Campus of the future is our focus
Akademiska Hus is one of Sweden’s largest property companies. We develop and manage facilities for universities and colleges, creating the conditions for world-class education and research. By providing labs and offices for businesses, our campuses become more innovative and sustainable environments that encourage collaboration, knowledge development, and creativity.
Our path to net-Zero 240
As a major player in an industry with a high climate impact, we can make a difference. Reduced new construction and more circular processes are an important piece of the puzzle. Our goal is clear and encompasses our entire operations. We aim to reach Net-Zero emissions by 2040, and we are happy to share more about what that means and how we plan to achieve it.

We take climate responsibility
Net-Zero by 2040
Our climate targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), Net-Zero Standard and are in line with the Paris Agreement and what research requires to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.
By 2040 we will have achieved a 90 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 2019. The remaining ten per cent we neutralise through negative emissions.
Sustainable campuses
Campuses are environments that inspire
Knowledge environments at universities and colleges should be teeming with life, movement and faith in the future. These are dynamic places with a focus on education and research where there is room for the whole person and where meetings between disciplines and with society in general take place easily and feel natural.
On our website, you can read more about how we work to develop sustainable campuses that provide the right conditions for the universities' academic excellence. You can also find specific information about the campuses we own properties at.
We are shifting focus to reuse
The construction and real estate industry must change fundamentally if we are to take our responsibility seriously in the green transition. For us, it is specifically about reducing the proportion of new construction in our property portfolio. We need to find new models where we convert existing buildings more often than build new.
Here you will find more information about how we think about our role as a property owner in the green transition and examples of how we take our responsibility.
Inspiration
Aha - Inspiration and dialogue about campus development
