“Can Malaysia build smarter before it’s too late?”

GreenRE is featured in StarProperty’s latest article discussing the urgency of building smarter, greener cities in the face of climate risks and rapid urbanisation.

Our Executive Director, Ir. Ashwin Thurairajah, shared that achieving Malaysia’s net-zero ambition by 2050 requires more than just clean energy solutions. It involves rethinking how we design, construct, and operate our buildings — with sustainability, resilience, and energy efficiency embedded across the entire lifecycle.

He also highlighted key priorities for the built environment:
✅ Modernising our grid infrastructure
✅ Strengthening independent certification and long-term accountability
✅ Driving public-private collaboration
✅ Unlocking the potential of buildings to reduce carbon emissions at scale

At GreenRE, we remain committed to supporting this transition through practical, performance-based certification that helps future-proof developments across Malaysia.
