\nCDL pledges to achieve net zero carbon operations by 2030City Developments Limited (CDL) is the\u00a0first property developer in Singapore and the first real estate conglomerate within Southeast Asia to sign the\u00a0WorldGBC\u2019s Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment.
\nCity Developments Limited (CDL) has pledged to reach net zero carbon operations for buildings under its direct control by 2030.
\nThis comes after it signed the WorldGBC\u2019s Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment, making it the first property developer in Singapore and the first real estate conglomerate within Southeast Asia to do so.
\nThe commitment will also see CDL advocating for all building to be net zero carbon in operation by 2050.
\nA net zero carbon building is one that is highly energy-efficient and powered from on-site and\/or off-site renewable energy sources and offsets.

\nPledging to the commitment means CDL will disclose, reduce and verify operating emissions of its managed buildings.
\nCDL has mapped out ways to achieve its 2030 target, such as leveraging smart technologies and innovations to maximise the energy performance of buildings; achieving 100% renewable energy; phasing out diesel across all operations; developing a low-carbon investment roadmap; and educating building users to change mindset and action.
\nCDL also developed a Smart, Sustainable and Super Low Energy (3S) Green Building Framework, which is aligned with the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Super Low Energy (SLE) buildings requirements and international standards to advance health and wellbeing within buildings.

\nIn fact, plans are underway to introduce BCA SLE certified buildings within its portfolio.
\n\u201cCDL recognises that decarbonisation is a critical step towards global climate action and this is especially relevant to the building and construction sector which accounts for a significant amount of carbon emissions,\u201d said CDL Group Chief Executive Officer Sherman Kwek,.
\n\u201cOur pledge to the WorldGBC\u2019s Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment marks a key milestone in our sustainability journey as we take affirmative action to support the global agenda towards net zero by 2050. Taking this bold step forward reinforces our climate mitigation and adaptation efforts to build a more sustainable future in Singapore and abroad,\u201d he added.
