2026’s first run of the SGBC Hands‑On Training for the Mechanical & Electrical Carbon Calculator (MECC) was conducted today by Ms Yong Hui Yi from the SGBC Sustainability Certification team, supplemented by Ms Natalie Phoon from SGBC Member CPG Corporation who provided attendees with real-world usage examples of the MECC.
During the Industry Course, attendees gained practical experience in using the Mechanical & Electrical Carbon Calculator to quantify embodied carbon across M&E systems, identifying key carbon hotspots within mechanical and electrical components, applying lifecycle‑based carbon insights to support informed system design and specification decisions as well as strengthening project‑level carbon documentation for sustainability assessments and reporting.
It was encouraging to see professionals from across the built environment actively engaging with M&E embodied carbon considerations—an increasingly critical component of whole‑life carbon performance and low‑carbon building delivery.
The next intake for the Hands-On Training for the MECC will be on the 14th of August 2026. Click here to register.
