Asia's Most Sustainable MICE Venue Powered by Renewable Energy

We know you care about the environment. So do we. But let's get real - the events industry typically creates a lot of wastage and generate tons of carbon. So, what can we do to be part of the solution?

As Asia’s most sustainable MICE venue powered by renewable energy, we have reimagined what it means to host truly green events. 

For us, it’s not just a case of minimising single-use plastics, turning down the air-conditioning or buying carbon credits, but real structural changes that make a difference.

We’ve developed a framework to ensure that our venue is always run as sustainably as possible. From our expansive array of solar panels and smart buildings to our zero-waste solutions and responsible food practices, our initiatives are aligned with Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to set the gold standard for sustainability within the industry. 

By choosing our venue, you're not just selecting a space – you're making a statement about your commitment to environmental stewardship and positively impacting communities.

Together, we can redefine the future, where every event contributes to a cleaner, greener planet.

Here’s How We Do It at Singapore EXPO

Get a glimpse of how we are consciously reducing our carbon footprint by investing in real structural changes and taking small consistent steps in our daily operations.

Harvesting the Sun

We hold the record for Singapore’s largest single-site solar rooftop installation, with 16,508 panels and a capacity of 9.7MWp, generating clean, renewable energy.

Completed in 2023, our solar panels harvest the sun’s energy to power our operations, including 20 EV chargers at our venue. With the ability to generate 12GWh annually, our system enables us to reduce 5,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide yearly, equivalent to 3100 round trips between Singapore and New York.

Strategic Design & Features

Our BCA Green Mark Platinum and SACEOS MICE Sustainability (Gold) Certified buildings feature sustainable design and smart technologies to reduce water and electricity use.

These include smart sensors that adjust lighting and room temperature based on traffic flow and natural light, and highly efficient and scalable HVAC cooling plants. Our buildings are also designed to reduce reliance on artificial lighting, with strategically placed skylights and large windows for ample natural light.

We also provide electric alternatives for equipment, digitalisation of work processes and SG Green Label cleaning products, enabling your event to achieve a lower carbon footprint without compromising on quality or comfort.

Ethical Eats

Our philosophy is to fill your tummies – not landfills!

To minimise single-use plastics, all our F&B, including bentos and catering, come in eco-friendly packaging whenever possible. To ensure your food comes from sustainable sources, we have three herb gardens within our buildings – see if you can taste our freshly plucked herbs in your meals! 

For food that can't come from our gardens, we work with suppliers and local partners who advocate sustainable farming and care about the environment as much as we do. 

From Trash to Treasure

Our robust recycling programme emphasises reusing, reducing and recycling waste at every opportunity. 

Our powerful food digester processes 365 tonnes of food waste a year, converting it into greywater safe for public sewage. We can collect, weigh and transfer your event’s waste to our food digester and provide you with a post-event waste report. 

We also offer water dispensers in common areas to encourage reusable bottles and adopt digital screens instead of physical advertising and marketing materials to reduce waste.

From our onsite waste separation and sorting centre to clear labels on recycling bins, we make zero-waste easy for everyone.
