Overview of Gardens by the Bay’s eco-friendly initiatives.

The gardens are a leading example of eco-friendly initiatives in the city-state. Gardens by the Bay developed the 101-hectare garden park to be an urban outdoor space that is beautiful and sustainable.

Thanks to its commitment to sustainability, it has become one of Singapore’s most beloved attractions for tourists and locals alike. 

The garden park includes four main eco-friendly initiatives: energy conservation, water recycling, organic waste management, and biodiversity conservation. To reduce energy usage, Gardens by the Bay uses solar power for lighting systems throughout the park and cooling systems indoors.

A closed-loop water system recycles wastewater from fountains and restrooms back into reservoirs or is reused for irrigation or cleaning. Organic waste from food courts is collected daily to be processed into compost, which is used in landscaping works around the gardens.
