Green Mark Certification: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how buildings in Singapore can earn energy efficiency ratings and become eligible for sustainability grants.

Green Mark Certification is a system used to rate buildings based on how energy efficient they are.

Who it's for

This scheme is for buildings that want to achieve specific energy efficiency ratings.

What you get

By participating, you receive official recognition for your building's environmental performance. This status may also make you eligible to apply for various government sustainability grants.

What it costs you

There is no direct cost mentioned for the certification itself, but you will need to pay for professional consultancy fees and the costs of conducting energy audits to meet the standards.

The catch to know

Getting the rating is not a one-time event. To keep your certification valid, you must commit to ongoing energy data reporting to show your building remains efficient.

How to apply

  1. Determine if your building meets the criteria for an energy rating.
  2. Hire consultants to help manage the process and conduct necessary audits.
  3. Submit your application and documentation to the relevant authority.
  4. Maintain regular energy reporting to keep your certification active.
