MILANO (ITALPRESS) – Fabrizio Capaccioli was confirmed President of Green Building Council Italy for the three-year period 2026-2029. The appointment took place during the first meeting of the new Board of Address, elected by the Shareholders’ Meeting and called to lead the association in a decisive phase for the future of sustainable building in Italy.
“The sustainability of the built environment is no longer a specialist theme or a choice reserved for major real estate interventions, but a central lever for the quality of living, the health of people, the competitiveness of enterprises and the ability of the territories to face the ecological transition,” said Capaccioli, whose reconfirm comes in a particularly significant passage for the association, which in 2026 celebrated the 18 years from its birth and is preparing to face a new phase of work.
The new governance structure continues the path initiated with the recent updating of the Statute, designed to make the association more solid, open and able to respond to the transformations of a sector called to confront with increasingly stringent objectives, from decarbonization to circularity, from the quality of living to the measurement of environmental performance. The implementation of the EPBD4 Directive, the comparison on the Home Plan, the evolution of ESG criteria and European taxonomy make the role of the environment built in the ecological transition even more central and confirm the need for a structured dialogue between the parties, of which the association promotes and guarantees.
“Among the priorities of the new mandate there will be the existing building heritage, where a decisive part of the transformation of the country will be played,” continued Capaccioli. “The challenge, for the Green Building Council Italy, will help to make sustainability a concrete, measurable and widespread practice, able to arrive not only to large projects, but also to small municipalities, local administrations and communities that most need operational tools to redevelop buildings, public spaces and services. Next to this, we will work to strengthen the integration between environmental sustainability, health, quality of work and governance, promoting approaches that measure the overall impact of the built environment.” “In this perspective, an increasingly important role will be entrusted to data, transparency of performance and dialogue with the world of finance and insurance, so that the quality and sustainability of buildings become parameters recognised in investment decisions, risk assessment models and real estate enhancement processes,” reads in a note.
