“Air Quality Challenge” by Covivio & EDF
To identify and test innovative solutions for improving indoor air quality while cutting energy consumption, in 2020 Covivio and EDF R&D launched the European “Air Quality Challenge” call for projects. To date, some ten buildings in the Bureaux France portfolio have been fitted with sensors to measure and monitor indoor air quality, both in common areas and in certain private zones. This initiative is being carried out with the support of Impulse Partners, already a partner of the two operators.

Integrating start-ups into the day-to-day running of our businesses as part of a permanent sourcing process, and setting up tools to gather ideas on various themes: we deploy initiatives to mobilize employees around Covivio’s innovation strategy. The result: innovative ideas and concepts.
