THE REVELANCE OF HYBRID WORKING STYLES TO SINGAPORE GREEN PLAN 2030: A FOCUS ON BUILDING SUSTAINABILITY

Abstract

This study aims to determine whether hybrid working methods may improve sustainability and advance the Singapore Green Plan 2030. Buildings accounted for up to 40% of the region's energy use and 11.9% of its CO2 emissions. Whether integrating hybrid working methods can help buildings use less energy and support the Green Plan 2030. There is, however, a paucity of knowledge regarding how switching to hybrid working patterns might lead to higher energy usage overall. This study's main objective is to ascertain how much energy consumption is lowered when hybrid working methods are used. To ascertain whether there is a tendency for energy usage to decline when hybrid working methods are used. It will focus on the US/Eastern region because it has the highest mean temperature of 29 degree Celsisus which is the similar to Singapore as it has highest mean temperature of 29 degree Celsius as compared to other regions. The three stages of the dissertation will be Dataset, Creating Scenarios, and Analysis. The first phase will concentrate on importing datasets and preparing data for use. Based on the rotation of odd and even workweeks, Scenario 5 conserved the most electricity of 20.34% as compared to other 4 scenarios. It is more suitable for industries that do not require everyone to be in Office to adopt it. It is more important to consider which scenario would be better for the organization before implementing it. Every business must contribute to advancing the environmental goals of the Green Plan 2030.
