Precisely, the study modelled the effects of uncertainty of economy condition, environment development, knowledge improvement, and regional policy on green construction implementation affecting building incentives in the developing country. The study was based on a survey of building stakeholder in constraction phase in the capital city of Indonesia and the model was validated for reliability and validity. The PLS-SEM indicated that sustainable in green construction implementation has significant causal effects on incentives.
