FAQ
The BCA Green Mark certification scheme was launched in 2005, and is a green building rating system designed to evaluate a building’s environmental impact and performance from design to operational stage. The scheme is refreshed every few years to stay relevant with the latest being the BCA Green Mark 2021 (GM: 2021) certification scheme. The refreshed scheme encourages the industry and professionals to collaborate and develop green building solutions to raise energy efficiency and attain standards to achieve sustainability outcomes outlined in the Singapore Green Building Masterplan (SGBMP). One of the targets under SGBMP is to have at least 80% of buildings in Singapore (by Gross Floor Area) to be green by 2030.
