SGBC wrapped up an insightful, full-house morning at Capital Tower on 3 June 2026 for the ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฏ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐๐ฆ๐ด๐ด๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ: ๐๐ฏ ๐๐ฏ๐ต๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ค๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐๐๐๐ช ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ถ๐ช๐ญ๐ต ๐๐ฏ๐ท๐ช๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต. As Singapore accelerates toward its commitment of net-zero emissions by 2050, global capital flows are increasingly demanding credible, science-based decarbonisation pathways. Today’s session showed that the local built environment sector is ready to move past uncertainty and embrace informed, measurable action.
A huge thank you to the speaker, Ms Amanda Skeldon (Built Environment Engagement Specialist at the Science Based Targets initiative), for sharing her invaluable global expertise. Amanda expertly guided our attendees through:
- The foundational principles of the SBTi Corporate Net Zero Standard and the dedicated SME route.
- A deep dive into the SBTi Buildings Criteria, specifically breaking down Upfront Embodied Emissions and In-Use Operational Emissions targets.
- Practical navigation of the target validation process, common implementation challenges, and how to leverage complementary frameworks.
An interactive panel discussion and live Q&A session with Amanda, Ms Foo Peng Er from CapitaLand Investment, Ms Angela Pang from Climate Asia Pte Ltd Asia and Mr. Kew Yuan Chun from Frasers Property Singapore also highlighted a collective industry determination to tackle common target-setting hurdles head-on.
We would like to extend our gratitude to SGBC Founding Member, CapitaLand Investment, for their strong support to todayโs information session as well as their commitment to driving corporate climate action alongside the Singapore Green Building Council.
