Westbridge Poland, the Polish branch of the Westbridge Group, has advised TriGranit on the procurement of renewable power for the Bartók Ház in Budapest. The mandate covers the power supply for the 2027 and 2028 supply years, highlighting Westbridge Poland’s increasing involvement in supporting commercial real estate clients across Central and Eastern Europe.
The newly contracted supply covers around 2.22 gigawatt-hours of electricity per year, equivalent to approximately 4.4 gigawatt-hours over the two-year term. The agreement includes two supply points and is based on a fixed-price model, providing greater visibility of costs for ongoing building operations. The power supply is backed by guarantees of origin from national renewable energy sources. In addition to increasing price certainty, the agreement is expected to generate financial savings of more than €53,000 over the two-year contract period compared with the previous procurement model.
The procurement of renewable electricity supported by Guarantees of Origin will also contribute to a reduction of approximately 1,458 tonnes of CO₂ emissions over the contract term by supporting electricity generation from renewable energy sources and reducing the carbon footprint associated with the building’s electricity consumption.
For TriGranit, the agreement supports the sustainable operation of Bartók Ház office building while improving transparency and predictability in energy procurement. The primary objective of the mandate was to ensure the procurement of renewable electricity under commercially viable conditions and to mitigate exposure to market volatility.
“With the renewed power supply for Bartók Ház, we are strengthening the sustainability profile of the asset and creating a reliable basis for energy cost planning. This is an important element of efficient and future-oriented asset management, which we carry out on behalf of the building’s owner, DRFG Investment Group,” said Marta Zawadzka, Head of Leasing & Asset Management at TriGranit.
Anna Nienaltowska, Head of Sales Poland at Westbridge Poland, said: “Across Central and Eastern Europe, commercial real estate owners are increasingly looking for energy solutions that combine renewable power with cost certainty. For TriGranit, we have developed a procurement structure that supports both sustainable building operations and reliable energy cost planning.”
Westbridge Poland managed the procurement process, including market analysis, supplier tendering, commercial evaluation and contract negotiations. Following a competitive process, a power supplier was selected for the property.
Bartók Ház is a high-quality Class A office building with more than 17,600 sqm of leasable space. The building is one of South Buda’s most recognised office destinations, offering modern office spaces, excellent accessibility, and a dynamic business environment. Part of DRFG Investment Group’s portfolio and managed by TriGranit, the property attracts a diverse mix of domestic and international tenants from a wide range of industries. The building holds a BREEAM environmental certification at the “Very Good” level, as well as an Access4you certificate. The property also offers, among other features, an above-standard number of parking spaces.
