Background of Putrajaya & PGC2025
 Putrajaya is the Federal Government Administrative Centre of Malaysia The planning and development of the city based on sustainable development principles has set thesolid groundwork for the city’s transformation towards becoming a sustainable low carbon green cityby 2025.
 Putrajaya Green City 2025 (PGC2025 ) is an action plan for the city towards this target.
 PGC2025 has set an ambitious target to reduce Putrajaya’s citywide GHG emissions by 60% from its
business as usual level in 2025 which corresponds to about 2,400 ktCO2 by implementing thenecessary identified actions.

Putrajaya Building Sector Carbon Emissions
Monitoring & Reporting Programme Putrajaya’s GHG emissions inventory for 2014 indicates that thebuilding sector contributes the highest in terms of city’s GHG
emissions at 67% (1,038 ktCO2eq)
 Huge potential to reduce GHG emissions from this sector has been
identified by focusing on implementing energy conservation andenergy efficiency practices in buildings
 For this purpose PJC will be introducing the Putrajaya Building Sector
Carbon Emissions Monitoring & Reporting Programme specificallytargeted to reduce GHG emissions from the building sector.
 A research team consisted of PJC, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia,
Kyoto University, National Institute for Environmental Studies, Tokyo
Metropolitan Government, Mizuho Information and ResearchInstitute was established to design and develop of the programme forPutrajaya.
 The programme is based on the experience of Tokyo Metropolitan
Government in implementing Carbon Reduction Reporting
Programme in TokyoPutrajaya Building Sector Carbon Emissions
Monitoring & Reporting Programme
Overview of the Programme:
 The scope of the programme covers all non residentialbuildings, categorised into 2 groups, mandatory for large
scale buildings (GFA over 10,001 m2) and voluntary formedium and small scale buildings (GFA below 10,000 m2)
 The total number of buildings covered by the programme
under the mandatory requirement is expected to reach
67%, covering 95% of total planned GFA of buildings.
 The programme will require building owners to reporttheir building’s profile, energy consumption, GHG emission
and action plan to reduce GHG emissions from theirbuilding operations annually to PJC.
 This programme adopts Building Energy Index (BEI) as anindicator and targets a reduction of 28% of average BEI in
2025 (272 kWh/m2) from the current 2014 BEI(381kWh/m2)
 The programme is anticipated to help reduce the GHG
emissions from the building sector by approximately 600
to 700ktCO2 by 2025 resulting in savings of about MYR500
million in terms of reduction of energy use in buildings inPutrajaya.

Putrajaya Building Sector Carbon Emissions
Monitoring & Reporting Programme Implementation in collaboration withvarious ministries and agencies, such as
the Ministry of Federal Territories,
Ministry of Energy, Federal Territory ofPutrajaya Public Works Department,
Sustainable
EnergyDevelopment
Authority and others
 The programme plays a major role inachieving the PGC2025 target & willcontribute towards the achievement of
the national target of 40% reduction incarbon intensity in 2020
 Programme diffusion to other cities inMalaysia through LCCF programme toencourage the development of energy
efficient low carbon green buildings inMalaysia

Transportation & Mobility
Putrajaya Bikeable City : Status Updates
The upgrading of cycling and walking infrastructure The first phase of the programme involves 24km ofexisting cycleways and walkways in the city centre
and part of the residential precincts.
 Operational in early 2016.
 Coverage to be extended in phases to cover themain routes linking other residential precincts tothe city centre and along the promenade of
Putrajaya lake.

Promotion of Putrajaya Cycling Trails
 To promote cycling as leisure & recreational
activity within the city, 9 cycling trails has been
identified and mapped.
 Categorized by their difficulty levels; easy trails,
moderate trails and challenging trails.
 PJC hope that cycling for leisure, health and fitnesswill be encouraged further resulting in a take up inutility and commuter cycling in the long term.

International Demonstration Project for EV Buses withSuper Quick Charging system in Putrajaya A project between PJC & NEDO
 Operational by end of 2016

With the implementation of PGC2025, the city of Putrajaya is a step ahead in theright direction in its transformation into a sustainable low carbon green city by2025
Putrajaya Building Sector Carbon Emissions Monitoring & Reporting Programme
will strengthen efforts to reduce the city’s GHG emissions & contribute towards
the national target of 40% reduction in CO2 intensity by 2020
The programme can be diffused for implementation in other cities in Malaysia
with the strong support of relevant government ministries and other agencies
Efforts to reduce GHG emissions from the transportation sector needs to beintensify via promotional programmes and introduction of public bus service
using EV buses and non motorised transportation mode & mobility
PJC welcomes the support of international organisations & agencies in expediting
the implementation of programmes to reduce Putrajaya’s GHG emissions andpledge to strengthen our efforts towards Putrajaya Green City 2025
