This is the first Malaysian common carbon metric study based on UNEP Sustainable Building & Climate Initiative (SBCI) CCM Protocol. This study was made by Steve Lojuntin and Dr Faridah Shafii under the Putrajaya Green Township Programme. Later the output used as input to the development of the Green Performance Assessment System (GreenPASS) by CIDB, a government low carbon green building tool based on carbon assessment.

2. OBJECTIVES
(i) To investigate the performance baselines for buildings
typologies in Putrajaya using Common Carbon Metric
(CCM).
(ii) To establish performance benchmarks for building
typologies in Putrajaya.
(iii) To support the National Low Carbon Cities Programme, a
government project under the Ministry of Energy, Green
Technology & Water, MALAYSIA and Malaysian Green
Technology Corp. Currently, Putrajaya and Cyberjaya
cities was selected to pioneer the green cities programme
/ demonstration.
