2.Purpose of measure(1) S$20 million Green Mark Incentive Scheme for New Buildings
Launched in 2006, this is a cash incentive to private developers, building owners and project consultants
whose new developments (gross floor area of at least 2,000m2) achieve Green Mark Gold rating or higher.
The scheme has been fully committed.

grants both new and existing developments that acheive either Green Mark Platinum or GoldPlus ratingwith additional gross floor area over and above the Master Plan Gross Plot Ratio control.

Launched in 2009, the scheme offers cash incentives for the supply and installation of energy efficientequipment and professional services to improve the energy efficiency of existing buildings with gross floorarea of at least 2,000m2. It also co-funds an energy audit of the existing building to determine theefficiency of the air-conditioning plants. The cash incentive under the scheme for the supply andinstallation of energy efficient equipment and professional services has been fully committed. Nonetheless,the scheme is still availabe for co-funding of energy audits for existing buildings.

5.Method to measure effects of measures (reduction in energy consumption and energy cost, etc.)
BCA keeps track of the total number of green buildings certified under the Green Mark scheme and total
gross floor area 'greened'. To-date, there are:
- Total number of Green Buildings: More than 2,500- Total Green GFA: More than 70 million m2- % of total GFA: > 29%
6.Results of measures
Pls see above. Singapore is on track to achieve the key target set by the Inter-Ministerial Committee onSustainable Development (IMCSD) in 2009: to green at least 80% of the buildings in Singapore by 2030.
7.Future tasks
To continually engage, raise awareness and educate developers, building owners and tenants on green
