Mapletree’s IQ Building has signed renewable energy leader, Flotation Energy, to its city centre offices. Headquartered in Edinburgh, the move sees the international firm take 3,812 sq ft of newly refurbished offices on the ground floor of the building.

Flotation Energy delivers clean, green, and renewable energy by using its expertise in floating and fixed offshore wind to support the energy transition and carbon-neutral commitments. It joins a cluster of energy and renewables businesses already located in the building.

In addition to its bespoke open-plan offices, Flotation Energy will have access to the IQ Building’s newly refurbished common areas, including a new reception, business lounge and revitalised atrium break-out area designed to support collaborative working. The Grade A building has also achieved a BREEAM certification of ‘Very Good’ and an ActiveScore rating of ‘Gold’.

Fiona Lyons, Director, Asset Management, UK at Mapletree Investments said, “The IQ Building offers exceptional best- in- class office space. Significant investment has been made to refurbish the asset so that we can offer tenants like Flotation Energy an excellent and conducive place to work, grow and ensure their people thrive.”

Matthew Park, Partner at Knight Frank, commented, “We’re delighted to welcome Flotation Energy to the IQ Building. Aberdeen continues to maintain its position as a global energy hub with more companies relocating to the city centre.  With the amenities that the IQ building offers, together with its ESG credentials, we’re confident occupiers will be happy here.”

Dan Wright, General Counsel at Flotation Energy added, “We were looking for an innovative environment, aligned sustainability credentials and a thriving community for our team to be part of. The IQ Building offers all of these, and we look forward to getting to know our colleagues and neighbours here.”

The IQ Building now has just one remaining suite available on the ground floor.
