Catalyze announced a strategic partnership with Cushman & Wakefield. The partnership aims to expand the adoption of solar and storage technologies across commercial and industrial (C&I) real estate in the United States, increasing operating income, reducing utility costs, reaching ESG goals, and alleviating stress on the power grid. Through this partnership, a Cushman & Wakefield team led by Nick Zarnin, Jonathan Serko, Gary Greenspan and Gene Slageter will work closely with Catalyze's team led by Mike Williams, Bob Stickney and Jimmy Joe Granito to identify and secure new opportunities for renewable energy installations.

Leveraging Cushman & Wakefield's extensive network, industry expertise and strategic insights, Catalyze seeks to broaden its reach and make sustainable energy solutions more accessible to businesses across a range of diverse industries. The real estate sector accounts for approximately 40% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions globally.Cushman & Wakefield set ambitious emissions reduction targets to not only reduce absolute GHG emissions from its corporate operations, but also in the facilities the firm manages on behalf of its clients, which are some of the world's largest commercial real estate owners and occupiers. This partnership aligns with the company's commitment to provide a unique suite of integrated sustainability solutions that help clients achieve their net-zero ambitions, reduce operational costs and add value to real estate assets.

This partnership builds on Catalyze's momentum in the C&I sector, having recently announced the operation of a solar and storage project installed at 66 Galen, a purpose-built life science building in Watertown, Massachusetts.
