Distributed early this month, the report from the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the World Bank Group's financing arm, shows that Indonesia has made critical headways in green advancement through different administrative endeavors.

Reclaim Your Global Standard Infrastructure With Our LEED Certification In Indonesia!

Did you know that among the many ways we can adopt for improving the global sustainability is through building Infrastructure which allows for a sustainable design solution and is built using standard materials that offer more energy savings rather than consumption. So once you take a step in that direction, your designing impulse compels you to design an infrastructure which is quite unfettering and conspicuous. Such concepts are called as environmentally sustainable buildings or simply a Green Building, and in order to be globally recognised, such buildings need to undergo verification metrics to obtain a Certification qualifying it as a Green Building.

Which is why, we at GreenA Consultants are here to help you get your infrastructure certified as a Green building through our one of the most prominent certification, the LEED Certification in Indonesia!

At GreenA Consultants, you are sure to get the best Green reporting and certification Advisory, as here, we are a team of multi-disciplinary professionals coming from different backgrounds like engineering, sustainability studies, architecture, environmental studies and marketing and communication. 


Now, The LEED Certification we provide for global infrastructures is traditionally a globally renowned certification for sustainable design and development which was initially developed by the US green building council. In this peculiar certification, the buildings have to undergo series of third party verifications across the pivotal metrics such as energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved environmental quality and stewardship of resources. 

To expound it a bit more, the LEED Certification is offered under 8 sub LEED certification categories on the type of the development, meaning, the certification is offered to buildings by dividing them into 8 different types of developments (i.e. commercial, residential etc.), along with four levels of certification which are; Platinum, Gold, silver and certified. 

The first category, BD+C (Building Design and Construction) deals with all the new construction from core & shell to schools, retail, hospitality, warehouses, and healthcare Infrastructure. 

The second category, ID+C (Interior design and Construction), is for complete interior fit-out projects such as Commercial Interiors, retail and Hospitality. 

The third category is O+M (Operations and Management), and is suited for existing buildings that are undergoing improvement work or little to no construction. Examples are: Existing Buildings, Schools etc. 

The fourth category of LEED Certification is ND (Neighbourhood Development) and is for new land development projects or redevelopment projects containing residential uses, non-residential uses, or a mix.

Understanding The Most Recently Developed Zero Energy Building In Singapore

In recent news dating back not more than a year, the National University of Singapore launched its first Zero energy building in Singapore from scratch, on January 30, 2019 at its School of Design and environment.  The basic concept behind the net Zero energy building means that a building labelled as such produces more energy than it actually consumes. 

Now, how does this happen? This happens largely when the builders and the architects use environmentally friendly features such as solar panel roof and a hybrid cooling system while its construction. These features help such type of buildings to have a net-zero energy consumption.

While the need for sustainability has grown significantly in the recent years, the exploitation of natural resources has also been sky rocketing. That is why; someone needs to come up with environmentally sustainable solutions when it comes to building and infrastructure. Which is why, concepts like this Zero energy building have come into existence. 


Let’s get into the details about this revolutionary advancement. For starters, more than 1,200 solar PV panels help inn powering the entire building and as a result, they produce more than 500 Mega Watts (MW) which is more than one could ask for, and is equivalent to the yearly energy consumption of more than a hundred 4-room housing board flats.

Economically speaking, this type of a building saves about $180,000 in energy costs every single year, thus significantly reducing the cost of operations and maintenance. This is indeed a very crucial step for a booming economy like Singapore as buildings like SDE4 (the building that we are talking about) play an important part in tackling climate change. 

As we see this as an example, we also must know that it is very crucial to develop such buildings, specifically in countries like Singapore and many other Asian Countries which are developed and lead in their infrastructure, because nearly a quarter of such  a country’s  carbon emissions come from the Infrastructural sector. 

We at GreenA Consultants also work on something like this. We are into all sorts of green building certification and advisory and like the SDE4 (don’t worry, we did not work on that!), we come up with innovative solutions and design frameworks to give your building the best accreditation for being a sustainable building.

If you are worried about the energy consumption of your building, get it checked and verified by our third party verification, in which we judge according to various metrics such as CO2 Emissions reduction, energy savings, water efficiency, improved indoor environmental quality and stewardship of resources to give you exactly the Eco-friendly building you wished for!

All builders in Singapore call us TODAY and we promise to give you innovative and practical solutions for creating a sustainable environment!

What Does A Green Building Mean To Us?

Let us begin by asking the question: why do we need to talk green? Because when we build, we leave behind all that it takes to make the environment and this world, a safer place to live in. and thus all sprouts up from the concept of sustainability, which involves building and designing a Green building. 

But what does a green building mean to us? Why is it so relevant? Perhaps the answer lies in the fact that a green building is a small factor which adds to the many steps taken in the lieu of sustainability. To maintain a sustainable environment, a sustainable future, a future that generations after us can enjoy and cherish.

So going back, the first and the most reachable aim an objective to take a step further towards creating a sustainable environment involves building settlements in a way that do not harm the environment in general. Of course, this statement can be extended further into many meanings and justifications, but if we talk technicalities, the buildings and big cityscapes in Asia and Africa account for more than 40% of the world’s total CO2 Emissions alone! Now, consider how grave the situation might be.

But this is not to scare is. We at GreenA consultants have taken a pledge to promote the meaning and concept of sustainability and sustainable development to an extent that we have made this our profession. Thus amalgamating both our passion for sustainability and our profession. 


The work we do is quite simple. We provide traditionally recognized certifications which are a symbol of sustainable design solutions and designed and developed by the US green Building Council. Apart from certification, we also provide advisory on sustainable designs which are:

Green Reporting and Certification Advisory, Environmental Sustainability Solutions and Environmentally Sustainable Design. Our Green Reporting certification advisory includes the following certifications:
