Keppel Bay Tower - Singapore's first commercial building fully powered by renewable energy

SINGAPORE - A city-state that has grown to be one of the most powerful yet environmentally responsible economies in the world, what sets Singapore’s urban buildings apart is their commitment to green initiatives. A major part of Singapore’s sustainability initiatives is the greening of its new and existing building stock. A walk through Singapore’s downtown area is a striking evidence of the city-state’s initiative with lush greenery springing from the buildings facade. An exceptional building in one of the most sought after business addresses in the city is Keppel Bay Tower - Singapore’s first commercial building fully powered by renewable energy.

A Grade A office building in the Keppel Bay waterfront precinct in the HarbourFront area, Keppel Bay Tower offers its tenants the best environment to flourish in. It is Singapore’s only waterfront business hub which gives its tenants the opportunity to enjoy amenities way beyond what a traditional business district can offer such as magnificent views, excellent transport connections and high quality leisure and retail facilities. Nestled at Singapore’s prime district four and strategically located near the CBD, Keppel Bay Tower boasts the ease of connectivity as the building is easily accessible via car, train or bus. The nearby megamalls are Harbourfront Centre and VivoCity. Keppel Bay Tower is definitely a one of a kind building with a location that promotes a work and play experience far beyond a conventional business district.

Keppel Bay Tower has an established tenant base and is home to numerous major companies and multinational companies such as Keppel Group, BMW Asia, and Mondelez International. With a total net lettable area of approximately 394,000 square feet, Keppel Bay Tower’s office space is equipped with a raised floor system, provision for greater efficiency in space planning, includes large floor plates of up to 39,000 square feet and core-to-perimeter depth of up to 24 meters, centralised chilled water air-conditioning system, 24hr security with cctv monitoring at all main entrances and exits, and card access system at all passenger lifts. There is a common pantry on every floor.

Keppel Bay Tower is the first commercial development in Singapore to be certified as a Green Mark Platinum (Zero Energy) by BCA. In 2020, Keppel Bay Tower has implemented five state of the art technologies in an attempt to achieve energy savings that is beyond the traditional measures that is already implemented in the building. Another aim is also to drive efficiency even further than the Green Mark Platinum, which is currently the highest building performance that can be attained in Singapore. The implementation has resulted in a reduction of 22.3% in annualised energy consumption of the building thus driving further its aim to gear towards a super low-energy building. With the implementation, the building also earned the distinction of being Singapore’s first commercial development to utilise renewable energy to power all of its operations, including all of the tenant spaces.
