What Is Green Building?

Green Building is the

construction and

renovation of buildings toreduce their impact on the

environment.

These buildings are built

to be more energyefficient, use fewer

natural resources, and

reduce waste and

pollution.

Need Of Green Buildings !

We live in a energy crisis and environmental

pollution affected country! INDIA

Basic amenities like water supply & electricity is

compromised!

Resources like coal, petroleum will get distinct.

Change in culture has impacted the consumption of

energy, water and sources. Needs to ensure the unsustainable use of energy,

water and renewable sources of energy.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Wind Turbines

Wind Turbines can be set up

on roof to generate power!

Solar Panels

Solar Panels can be set up

on roof to generate power

as well as heat bath water!

GREEN ROOFS

Green Roofs reduce energy

use and cost.

Roofs are partially or

completely covered with

vegetation.

Vegetation helps minimize

heating and cooling costs.

Also prevent storm-water

runoff & filter pollutants!

WATER CONSERVATION

Rainwater Harvesting Systems can be installed on rooftops of

buildings to collect the rain water.

Collected water can later be channeled into the water butts.

Through water butts, it can be used to wash cars, watering

plants & other cleaning purposes.

Use gray water from bath sinks, kitchens & washing machines

to flush lavatories.

EFFICIENT APPLIANCES & RECYCLE METHODS

Use Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs which use 20% less

energy than normal bulbs.

Motion Detectors can be used to switch off the lights if there

is no one in the room!

Non-toxic paints should be used on the walls as they use

water rather than petroleum based solvents and do not emit

hazardous pollutants.

Use compositing to reduce waste and help the plantation at

the same time. Food scraps and biodegradable materials

produce nutrient rich fertilizer.

High Efficiency insulated glass windows reduce energy use.

Central Dehumidifier

System

This system is installed in

the buildings to reduce the

level of humidity in air,

usually for health or

comfort reasons & to

eliminate the must.

Uses thermal condensation

process.

Humidistat is used to

control the dehumidifier.

Condensate pump collectswater and move it to

disposal location through

hose which can be used as

grey water!

Central Vacuum

Cleaner

This appliance is

installed into the

buildings & designed to

remove dust particles &

debris from homes,corridor of the building.

Remotely Send dust

particles through line

pipes installed inside a

wall. Used for health related

issues, fight allergies

and keep the interior air

clean!

Benefits of Green Building !

Its not about what we will get in return! Its about what we

are giving to environment !

LONGTERMBenefit: Green Buildings costs 15-20% more

than regular buildings, but cost can be recovered in 2-3 yearfrom energy and water saving !

Green Buildings are energy efficient, water efficient &

material efficient!

Green Buildings are maintenance free as they use renewableresources! (sunlight, plantation, rainwater)

Green Buildings have higher property value than

conventional buildings. Create more energy than they need!

Green Buildings in India

Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) formed in 2001 by Confederation of

Indian Industry.

IGBC has licensed the LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design)

green building standard from U.S. Green Building Council.

1,724 projects have been registered under IGBC Rating Programs. These developments includes: corporate offices, townships, schools,

universities, airports, hospitals, hotels, IT parks and SEZs.

India have 267 registered green buildings which are fully operational.

The Indian Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) has launched Energy

Conservation Building Code in 2009. The code is set energy efficiencystandards for design and construction with any building.

Other agencies : SGS, GRIHA, SVAGRIHA, TERI.
