The public sector will lead the way to pursue sustainable


development with the GreenGov.SG initiative.

Launched in 2021, GreenGov.SG is a key enabler of the Singapore Green


Plan 2030. The name “GreenGov.SG” reflects the cross-cutting role of the
Government in supporting the national sustainability agenda.

Under GreenGov.SG, the public sector will strive to attain ambitious


sustainability targets in carbon abatement and resource efficiency, and be a
positive influence and enabler of green efforts.

GreenGov.SG has three pillars:

Excel
Focus Area Target

Greenhouse Gas Net zero emissions around 2045, after peaking emissions

Energy Reduce energy use¹ by 10% from the baseline by 2030

Water Reduce water use² by 10% from the baseline by 2030

Waste Reduce waste disposed of³ by 30% from the baseline by 2030

¹ Represented by the Energy Utilisation Index, which is energy used per


unit area.
² Represented by the Water Efficiency Index, which is water used per

GreenGov.SG Report

The inaugural GreenGov.SG report was published in December 2023. This


report provides a snapshot of the Singapore public sector’s FY2022
environmental sustainability performance. It also documents the public
sector’s key strategies and initiatives to enhance environmental
sustainability and meet our targets.

View the GreenGov.SG Report  here.


The Singapore Public Sector is a member of the Net Zero Government
Initiative. Participating countries commit to achieving net zero emission
from national government operations no later than 2050, and develop a
roadmap that outlines the pathway for achieving the net zero commitment.

The Net Zero Roadmap can be found  here.

As we progress along our sustainability journey, we will continue to learn


from others, and improve our performance and plans.

It will require a whole-of-nation effort to achieve our national environmental


sustainability goals. Together, we can chart our way towards a low-carbon
and sustainable future for Singapore.
