To chart the path for Singapore’s next set of ambitious decarbonisation goals beyond 2030, the development of an updated Built Environment Decarbonisation Technology roadmap was announced during the SGBC Gala Dinner 2025 on 11 July 2025, outlining key emerging technologies and areas for research development to improve energy efficiency in Singapore’s built environment.
Building upon the foundations of the SLE Building Technology Roadmap launched in 2018, this latest development will identify crucial technologies and implementation timelines that will enable the sector to meet its sustainability goals. It will undergo public consultation to gather insights from industry stakeholders and members of the public before it is launched.
Complementing the roadmap, BCA has also launched a new technical reference for hybrid cooling, which aims to accelerate the deployment of hybrid cooling systems by providing comprehensive guidelines for the implementation of energy-efficient cooling systems in buildings. This reference will help building owners and developers adopt more sustainable cooling solutions, especially in the context of Singapore’s tropical climate
