Barrier of Green Building Implementation in Construction Projects in Indonesia

The development of a city that including infrastructure support has a massive impact on environmental conditions and climate change. Green buildings are the key solution to environmental problems. However, the implementation of the green buildings are very slow in Indonesia. Most of dominant inhibiting factors for green building implementation are the difficulty of obtaining green materials, a lack of understanding of the importance of green buildings, the additional costs required to build green buildings, and the lack of support from the government. This research is conducted to sort out the factors inhibiting the construction/implementation of green buildings from the angle of contractors and owners. Many questionnaires have been distributed in cities in Indonesia then found that the factors that hindered contractors were lack of research on green building, lack of demand from owners, lack of strict regulation from the government, failures in planning, and longer project duration. From the owner’s side, what is anchoring is the lack of attention and interest, limited research on green building technology, high costs, and lack of cooperation between parties that support the owner delivering a green building.
