Growing global concern on climate change and widespread awareness towards environmental sustainability and cleaner production are driving organizations worldwide to implement procedures to efficiently manage the elements of organizational sustainability that include emissions, effluent discharge, waste disposal and energy efficiency. Since most of the primary source of energy come from fossil fuels, the rapid increase of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and particularly (CO2), would naturally result from the spike in the energy demand. Al-Amin et al. (2015) in their study reported that energy usage that relates to CO2 emissions is predicted to increase from 188.0 million tons in the year 2010 to 720.5 million tons in the year 2050. It is forecasted to reach 2024.4 million tons in 2105, which is a 10.28 % increment of average growth rate per year. In line with that, Roh et al. (2016) stated that 30% of the carbon emissions come from buildings. Basri et al. (2014) also added that electricity demand for Malaysia has increase from 41,476 ktoe in year 2010 to 46,710 ktoe in the year 2012 as a result of 11.25 % demand increment. Thus, sustainable measures need to be taken to decouple the growth in energy demand intensity from the industrial development.
