EDGE Amsterdam West involved the refurbishment of a 1970s office building in Amsterdam, retaining the existing structure and integrating renewable energy systems and smart building technologies. The project combined circular refurbishment with on-site energy generation and thermal energy storage, resulting in an EPC rating of A++++, WELL Platinum and BREEAM Outstanding certification, and net operational energy use of 0 kWh/m?/year.

Altera adopted the Framework for Climate Adaptive Buildings (FCAB) to establish a consistent approach to assessing physical climate risk across its real estate portfolio.
