IMPLEMENTATION OF GREEN BUILDING IN BALI: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES IN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstrak

The effects of global warming are now a concern for all parties and its implementation has begun to expand in almost all aspects and fields of human life, one of which is in the field of architecture and building construction. In the last decade, green building has become a hot topic that is often discussed by experts and has begun to be implemented in commercial and government-owned buildings and public housing. Although the application of green buildings can reduce environmental damage, not all new buildings are designed and built by applying the concept of green buildings. This is because the application of the green building concept is not easy, and besides that there are challenges and benefits of implementing the concept of green building in sustainable development. This study tries to describe the challenges that occur in the application of green building buildings and the benefits obtained in sustainable development. Data was obtained from field studies in the form of interviews with contractors, consultants, and owners. From the results of the interview, the challenges in realizing green building buildings are the lack of funding in building green buildings, lack of public attention to green buildings, and lack of commitment from administrative leaders to protect the environment. Meanwhile, the benefits according to the interview results are that Green Building can increase the value of building assets, reduce building operational costs, and improve the comfort and health of building users.
