Make Comfort Sustainable
A smarter, more sustainable indoor climate starts at 25°C. Join us in setting the right temperature and adopting optimal cooling practices for comfort and impact.
Why 25°C Matters
In Singapore’s tropical climate, overcooling is common – but it comes at a cost: discomfort, higher energy use and additional utility costs. It also feeds a vicious cycle, worsening climate change, exacerbating the urban heat island effect and increasing our demand for cooling.
The Go 25 movement, co-organised by the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) with the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE), and supported by the National Environment Agency (NEA) as well as the Building and Construction Authority (BCA), promotes optimal cooling practices starting with setting indoor temperatures to 25°C — the sweet spot for comfort and sustainability. It’s more than just a number; it’s a call to action for building owners, facility managers, and businesses to lead the way in creating a smarter, more sustainable Singapore.
To support this transition, the Singapore Green Building Council has launched the Go 25 Industry Guide — providing facilities managers and building managers/operators with the know-how to begin implementation of an indoor air-conditioned temperature that is as close to 25°C as possible.
Support the Shift to 25°C
Join the national movement of industry leaders committed to building a smarter, more sustainable future. The Go 25 pledge is a powerful demonstration of your organisation's dedication to balancing occupant comfort with environmental sustainability.

CDL Elevates Comfort with Go 25
CDL has set 25°C as the indoor temperature standard across its corporate offices, supported by over 100 bladeless Hybrid Cooling Fans that enhance airflow and thermal comfort. To further adapt to warmer settings, CDL introduced a business casual dress code and provides real-time temperature and humidity displays in visible areas across offices. These combined measures ensure staff comfort while reducing reliance on energy-intensive cooling. CDL projects its Go 25 efforts to lower cooling loads by around 20%, cutting an estimated 14,000 kgCO₂e in annual carbon emissions—a tangible step towards sustainable workplace practices.
Smart Comfort at C&W Services HQ
C&W Services HQ enhances workplace sustainability with a suite of Go 25 measures. Real-time temperature displays and zonal controls maintain stable comfort levels while reducing energy use. Solar films on windows mitigate heat gain and glare, protecting interiors from strong sunlight. Flexible seating allows staff to choose workspaces that suit their comfort preferences, further supporting the initiative. By raising indoor temperatures by just 1–1.5°C, the office achieves significant energy savings—around 12–18% in cooling use. These efforts highlight how thoughtful design and occupant empowerment can create comfortable, efficient, and sustainable workplaces.
Driving Green Habits at GF IIFS

Championing Sustainability with Go 25 at Republic Polytechnic
In line with our commitment to maintain indoor temperatures at 25°C, Republic Polytechnic (RP) has taken comprehensive steps to implement optimal cooling practices:
Temperature Optimisation in High-Traffic Zones
RP has adjusted air-conditioning settings in all transient and high-traffic spaces—such as the Agora, RPC (Republic Polytechnic Centre), and TRCC (The Republic Cultural Centre) common areas—to the recommended 25°C.
Pioneering Hybrid Cooling Systems
We are strategically implementing innovative hybrid cooling solutions across classrooms and offices. These systems combine wall-mounted and bladeless ceiling fans with air-conditioning maintained at 25°C. This approach maximizes thermal comfort for our community while minimizing the overall cooling load. This transition is a key part of our ongoing sustainability roadmap.
Fostering Shared Accountability
To fully embody the Go 25 spirit, RP displays real-time temperature readings in key locations to raise awareness and encourage shared responsibility among students and staff.
