The largest hospital in South America has an emissions intensity that positions it at a Good Practice level according to the NHS standard of the UK. EBP Chile has proposed mitigation measures that will allow it to reduce 8% of its total footprint, potentially achieving an Exemplary Performance level under the same standard.The largest hospital in South America has an emissions intensity that positions it at a Good Practice level according to the NHS standard of the UK.

According to the latest report from the Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction, "2022 Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction," part of the UN Environment Programme, 37% of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) originate from the Construction sector. This percentage has grown exponentially over the last 10 years, and efforts to reduce energy consumption during operation are not expected to be sufficient to meet global sectoral goals. Therefore, extending mitigation strategies to embodied carbon in buildings is imperative for decarbonizing the sector. Sacyr has embraced this premise, and in collaboration with EBP Chile, they have developed a comprehensive service that includes an upfront carbon footprint assessment with a lifecycle approach. Using the Replacement of the Dr. Sótero del Río Healthcare Center project as a case study, this approach provides a realistic view of the environmental impact across different stages of the construction and identifies areas for further improvement. Additionally, thanks to the environmental measures already implemented in the project, it is evident that Sacyr's construction practices for this project result in emissions intensity levels below the market standard in Chile and comparable to international best practices for healthcare infrastructure.
