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. We are also a proud participant of the United Nations Global Compact.
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.

- From Trash to Treasure
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 reduce single-use plastics, all our F&B offerings, from bentos to catering, are served in eco-friendly packaging where possible. We also grow fresh herbs in our onsite gardens – you might spot them in your event meals! For other ingredients, we partner with suppliers and local partners who champion sustainable farming and care for the environment as much as we do.
Sustainability is also brought to life at our Rooftop Urban Farm @ EXPO, developed in partnership with BlueAcres. Located atop Singapore EXPO, it’s home to over 100 varieties of fresh produce and other species, grown using hydroponics, aquaponics, and other smart innovations. Visitors can explore themed zones, plant their own seeds, harvest fresh greens to take home, and engage in hands-on activities. Perfect for team building, learning journeys and more, visit us to explore sustainability in action at our interactive urban farm today.
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.
Track your carbon emissions with our GHG accounting platform
At Singapore EXPO, we are committed to driving sustainability across the MICE ecosystem and we recognise the importance of being aware and calculating greenhouse gas emissions accounting for your organisation. We have partnered with ESGpedia, a cutting-edge GHG accounting tool, to give access to our clients and supply chain a complimentary and seamless tool to measure and track Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions. Sustainability is a journey that each of us can play a part, join us to elevate sustainability across the MICE industry and play our part to realise a more sustainable MICE future.
