A few years ago, there was no one who would think of protecting the environment. Presently, the condition is different. Growing environmental concerns and the need for energy conservation have led to the development of regulations and laws that make it compulsory for buildings to meet the assured standards.
In Singapore, there is the Environment Council of Singapore to evaluate environmental impacts of designs of new buildings from the angle of energy consumption, water use and indoor ambiance as a result of building design, greenhouse gas emissions, wastewater management and associated factors that have a direct bearing on the ecological footprint. This ability awards Green Star ratings to the plan of buildings based on these standards. Having such a rating benefits the builder and the residents alike as all can gain satisfaction from knowing they are doing their bit to save the environment and conserve energy.
Those who want to build a new house would do well to have a capable expert who checks the design for energy ratings and environmental issues. A well qualified Edwin Seah Singapore Environment Council executive director will carry out a complete thermal energy modeling test of the design taking into consideration the overall design, materials used in construction, etc. The new house design should explain a marked reduction in energy use than a reference building design against which the planned design is compared.
A professional Edwin Seah Singapore Environment Council executive director will also carry out in-depth checks for the energy, waste, and water use and management efficiencies in respect of the house or building design and will propose alterations to improve such figures through audits. He will revise the cost savings, methods of implementation, and how they impact the environment, reduction of greenhouse gases, waste management, and related factors.
These are the factors that Edwin Seah Singapore Environment Council executive director will check and give you a report of your project.
