What makes Masdar City the
most sustainable city on earth?
The Guinness
Book of World
Records
said so…
and here’s why:
Page 12
Sustainability at Masdar City begins with the
Masterplan
Sustainable master-
planning
• Live, work, play, and
learn in one place
• City Orientation to
catch prevailing
winds
• Narrow streets for
buildings to shade
each other
• Mixed use
communities so all
basic services are in
walking distance

Innovation is a focus for all building design

Building Design
• Estidama 3
Pearl/LEED Gold at
no cost premium
• Focus on Net/Gross
Floor space to
improve returns
• Shaded
windows/atriums to
allow natural light
but reduce heat
consumption
• Efficient façade
systems with
advanced glass and
insulation
• Highly efficient MEP
and BMS systems
Page 14
The materials are chosen to reduce embodied
carbon

Building Materials
• Concrete – onsite
batching plant with
up to 60% GGBS
• Steel – 100%
recycled steel from
CICON
• Aluminum – 32%
recycled aluminum
from Gulf Extrusions
Page 15
This has brought significant impact to the local
supply chain

Along the way we have learned quite a bit
Masdar City’s vision is to develop a sustainable city that incorporates
the highest quality of life with the lowest environmental footprint
Timing
Economics
Integration
• Schedule driven
• Build all at once by 2015
• Build it and they will come
• Sustainable projects took precedence over
economics
• Gated community with private utilities
• An ‘island’ in Abu Dhabi for power and
water – including all onsite generation
Technology • Many pilot projects performed by Masdar
• Integrate bleeding edge wherever possible
2008
• Market driven
• Build neighborhoods
• To be sustainable it must make economic sense
• Main value driver is sustainability at an affordable
premium
• Integrated into Abu Dhabi transport and utilities
• Renewal energy done offsite
• Develop partnerships with leading technology
providers
• Integrate with Masdar Institute

Masdar’s Holistic Approach to Cost Effective
Green Building Design
The Masdar Approach – Low Cost
• Sustainability is the core of Masdar’s DNA – not an
afterthought to hit Estidama targets
• Passive measures (zero or low cost) are given top
priority
• Sustainability KPIs are part of all Masdar projects
• Estidama planning begins at project brief
Typical Approach – High Cost
• Sustainability is an afterthought to hit Estidama
targets
• Passive measures not considered – active (high
cost) measures are required
• No sustainability KPIs were considered before
Estidama ratings became mandatory
• Estidama planning begins late in the design stage
Page 28
Masdar City’s Innovation begins with studying the
way people have lived for thousands of years
Masdar City uses
technology to
adapt to its
environment – not
just overcome it Warning stones – do not build
below this line

Select sustainability features actually reduce
construction cost
Cost Reduction Features
• Increase efficiency of Net Internal Area vs. Gross
Floor Area.
• Decrease the building envelope area (roof and
façade) for a given floor area.
• Decrease window area while maintaining optimal
interior light levels
• Reduced mechanical equipment sizes from
reduced cooling load
• Decrease in mechanical plant room area from
reduced mechanical equipment.

Building Design Features That Reduces Cost
• Every kilowatt you save is more sustainable than a kilowatt produced renewably
• Maintenance of your facilities is key
• Match your renewable production with your requirement
• Solar for electricity
• Solar thermal for hot water
• Geothermal for cooling
• Produce renewable in the most efficient way possible
• Scale
• Location
How do we see energy

What do we want to see from the Utility
Image credit/Huffton&Crow
• Alignment of incentives
• Price electricity to encourage
savings
• Demand management
• Decouple utility profits from
increased electricity
consumption
• Invest in renewables
• Use government regulatory
power to make renewables
affordable
• Land
• Environmental regulation
• Financing support
California has avoided constructing 21
power plants since 1973
