COMMERCIAL GREEN BUILDINGS IN MALAYSIA

 

A list of Green Buildings in Malaysia, as published and certified by the Green Building Index. Malaysia’s Green Building Index was incorporated in February 2009, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pertubuhan Arkitek Malaysia and the Association of Consulting Engineers Malaysia (ACEM), to administrate GBI accreditation and training of GBI Facilitators and Certifiers.

The GBI Non-Residential Rating tool is a system that assesses the sustainable features of buildings that are commercial, institutional and industrial in nature, which encompasses industrial facilities, factories, offices and business venues, hospitals and medical facilities, schools, colleges, universities, hotels and shopping complexes.

Of the six criteria that make up the GBI rating, stress is put on energy efficiency and indoor natural environment quality as these have the greatest effect towards energy utilization as well as the well-being of the tenants and clients of the building.

By enhancing the effectiveness of active (mechanical and electrical) systems and additionally by incorporating good passive designs and legitimate and practical upkeep and maintenance routines, large reductions in energy consumption might be realized, which will inexorably lead to a diminished carbon footprint and therefore offer significant long-term savings for the building owners and operators.

Below is a list of buildings in Malaysia certified by the Green Building Index under the GBI Rating system.

 

NEW COMMERCIAL GREEN BUILDINGS IN MALAYSIA

 

NON-RESIDENTIAL CERTIFIED BUILDINGS (CVA)

 

PTM GEO BUILDING

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]Pusat Tenaga Malaysia (PTM) Green Energy Office (GEO) Building, formerly known as Zero Energy Office (ZEO) Building, is Malaysia’s first green-rated building, planned in 2005. Constructed in less than two years between 2006 and 2007 and costing 20% to 30% more than conventional Malaysian office buildings, the Pusat Tenaga Malaysia Zero Energy Office Building (ZEO Building) was built a prototype of an achievable example of a carbon neutral, zero net energy commercial-scale office building.  Following an extensive two-year monitoring and fine-tuning program, data and information from the process has been made available throughout Malaysia for the purpose of improving energy efficiency in building design and uses. The Building has a Building Energy Intensity of 35 kWh/m2/year.[/su_tab]

BANGUNAN BERLIAN SURUHANJAYA TENAGA – THE ENERGY COMMISSION DIAMOND BUILDING

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]The Diamond Building is the headquarters of Malaysia’s Energy Commission situated in Precinct 2, Putrajaya beside a public park, Taman Pancarona. The Diamond Building was built to emphasis the environmental aspects of energy efficiency, water efficiency and environmental quality.

The building was designed to operate at a capacity of 85kW/m². Typical office buildings in Malaysia have an average energy index of 210kW/m².

Water effciency is achieved through rainwater harvesting for toilet flushing, efficient water fittings such as dual-flush toilets, waterless urinals and aerated faucets contribute to a claimed 65% reduction in potable water consumption.

Waste water from wash basins is used to irrigate the gardens and wetlands built as part of the building’s outdoor environment. A sunken garden directly outside the building and landscaping of the building’s surroundings have helped to produce lower ambient temperatures through shading from foliage, which has contributed to lower cooling costs.

1 FIRST AVENUE

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]1 First Avenue is a commercial office tower connected to 1 Utama Shopping Center and One World Hotel. This building implemented green practices before the Green Building Index came into existence and was awarded Gold rating upon conception of the Index.

1 First Avenue harvests rainwater to minimize dependance upon chlorinated water, and employs a more efficient chilled-water HVAC system for cooling the building. Idle electricity supply during off-peak hours is utilized to cool the tanks to reduce consumption during peak hours by a claimed 35%. The building has outdoor atriums planted with shrubbery on every floor which sometimes double as smoking areas for office tenants.[/su_tab] [su_tab title=”Pictures”]1 First Avenue

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]The building is a Data Centre with ancillary facilities: Administration Offices, a Reception Lobby, Telco Tower and Service Management Centre (Command Centre) for Digi Telecommunications Sdn. Bhd. The objective was to design and erect a Tier III Data Centre based on Uptime Institute’s standards with possibility to scale-up to Tier IV security, and with ecological features. The building was designed with effective drainage and waterproofing, enclosed walls to reduce heat absorption into the data centre and with tight security measures. The façades of the Data Centre are designed with vertical green walls that act as living walls and as a means of filtering and improving the building’s indoor air quality.[/su_tab]

HOTEL PENAGA

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]Hotel Penaga was recently restored and redeveloped from a lot of shophouses and terraced houses.

The building was reconstructed from recycled materials, with roof tiles salvaged from demolished buildings and timber from demolished colonial houses throughout the country. A lot of new material is handmade from cottage industries and promote localization of industry and a more sustainable supply chain. The kitchen employs trash separation for composting of biodegradable materials.

Greenery is built into as much space as the building could accommodate, with a garden that is watered from rainwater harvesting. The swimming pool uses saltwater to reduce chemical usage. Water for tenants is heated via hybrid solar panel heat exchangers. Solar panels are also used to generate 20kW of energy, which is sold to the national grid. LED bulbs and motion detectors help reduce power consumption. Rooms are cooled with either a ceiling fan or inverter air-conditioners. Guests to the hotel have an option to choose.

Hotel Penaga is the first heritage restoration project in Malaysia to receive a Gold award by the Green Building Index. [/su_tab] [su_tab title=”Pictures”]

BANGUNAN PERDANA PUTRA

[su_tabs vertical=”yes”][su_tab title=”Description”]The Perdana Putra Building is the office of the Prime Minister of Malaysia in Putrajaya. The building was retrofitted to achieve green building status and has succeeded in reducing energy consumption by a third since earning accreditation.

The building emphasizes on energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, site planning & management, material & resources management, water efficiency and innovation in its green efforts.

Smart building management systems, more intelligent and on-demand HVAC systems, as well as the employ of more efficient lighting systems help achieve energy efficiency.

Refrigerant in cooling systems is more eco-friendly and has minimal impact to ozone layer.

Daylight sensors turn off indoor LED lighting if sufficient natural light is available. Blinds reduced glare from external sunlight and allow for more comfortable working conditions.

Drivers of green vehicles are given incentives (better parking) and a green roof is installed to combat building heat absorption.

Recycling bins are situated throughout the building to help promote sustainable office practices.

Rainwater harvesting and aerated faucets help reduce water consumption and wastage.

Proposals have been put forth to install a 140kW solar power plant to be utilized by the building. [/su_tab] [su_tab title=”Pictures”][/su_tab] [su_tab title=”Location”][/su_tab][/su_tabs]
