This paper presents the reviews of studies with regards to the development of Green Building Index- Residential New Construction (GBI-RNC). GBI-RNC is considered since the development of Residential Construction is expected to increase every year since Malaysia is considered as a developing country. The Carbon Emission of Residential Construction is evident thus one of the ways to control and commit to Carbon Emission reduction is by promoting Sustainable Development. Even though GBI-RNC has been introduced to the industry since 2009, participation increased just slightly by the year and to reach a rating more than ‘Certified’ are low. Furthermore, a national green rating system is proposed by JKR, to assist with all residential government projects. Therefore, this paper shall present the suggested modifications that should be made to GBI-RNC to improve its elements and gain more influence to maintain as the most used green rating system for residential construction.
