ESG as the foundation for an integrated asset management approach
ESG is part of NAS Invest's culture, organization and every investment they make. Before investing in real estate, they carefully screen opportunities for their ESG impact, with a clear focus on decarbonization, diversity and good governance, and only invest in assets that have a high transformational potential according to ESG standards.
Water plays an important role in achieving the ESG goals. Collecting water data from the properties was a recurring and time-consuming task, especially for the property managers.
NAS Invest has therefore set itself the goal of streamlining data collection in its buildings and reducing the workload for property managers and facility teams, improving not only the sustainability of their portfolio but also the facility managers work-life balance. Smartvatten was a perfect fit for Nas Invest's requirements.
Prevent water damage and increased work-life balance for employees with real-time technology

With over 20,000 properties and 200,000 apartments monitored by our service, we maximize efficiency, not only saving millions of liters of water and detecting over 50,000 water leaks annually, but also contributing to financial savings through optimized water use and management. Smartvatten enables customers to earn points towards green building certifications such as BREEAM, GRESB, DGNB and LEED. And the fully digitized service gives Nas Invest's property managers more time to focus on proactive maintenance, allowing them to achieve a better work-life balance.
The collaboration with Smartvatten began with a pilot and will shortly be extended to more properties in the portfolio.
