Background
In early 2019, a ‘Re-inventing Green Mark’ taskforce was formed under the Singapore Green Building Masterplan to:
- Review the scope of current Green Mark scheme to focus on outcome-based indicators, e.g. energy and carbon to address climate change, and possible add-ons to cover wider sustainability scope, e.g. healthier workplaces and maintainability,
- Streamline the Green Mark certification through digitalisation efforts for a more streamlined and efficient process.
The taskforce has proposed to streamline and consolidate current GM NRB:2015, GM RB:2016 and GM ENRB:2017 into a new all-in-one Green Mark 2021 Framework. Other building typologies such as data centers and rail transit system will be added in subsequent phases of GM: 2021 framework.
