This presentation deals with green building and the design of green buildings . Green buildings in India. Benefits of Green Buildings. Green Building Rating in India.
6. • “A green building is one which uses
less water, optimizes energy
conservesefficiency,
resources, generates less
natural
waste
and provides healthier spaces for
aoccupants, as compared to
conventional building"
WHAT IS GREEN
BUILDING?
7. Why is Green Building Important?
8000kg of waste are typically thrown into a
landfill during the construction of a 2000sqft
home.
The buildings in the India consume more than
twice as much energy as all the cars in the India
Buildings account for 68% of total electricity
consumption in the India
Buildings use 80% of total drinking water
consumption in the India
Indoor levels of pollution are commonly 2 to 5
times higher than outdoor pollution levels
8. New Project Planning
Construction – Reduce the amount of waste
generated at a construction site
Design – Building design details will help
to reduce construction materials, and
energy/water requirements when
completed
Material Selection – Careful selection of
construction materials will leave less of an
environmental impact
9. Construction
Construction waste accounts for 10 to as much as
30% of municipal waste stream
Goal: Reduce / Reuse / Recycle
Building design based on standard sizes of materials
Buy higher quality to reduce rejects
Recycle (use scraps)
Train crew
Renovate an existing building
10. Building Design
Goal: To design the building so that it requires less
energy/water and is healthier for inhabitants when
it is complete and in use
Air ducts for an efficient and healthy air flow
Insulation
Windows designed for maximum daylight
Passive Solar Control
Solar Cells
Heat Exchanger for climate control system
Location
11. Materials
Goal: Choose materials that have low environmental
costs and do not contribute to indoor air pollution
Engineered Lumber (recycled and reclaimed
material)
Doors and Windows (energy and placement)
Floor Coverings (recycled with no off-gassing)
Roof Materials (Reflective and light)
Energy Efficient Appliances
12. Obstacles
93% of consumers worry about their
home’s environmental performance.
However, only 18% are willing to pay
more to reduce the impact.
There are higher initial costs for Green
Building
Customers are concerned they would be
sacrificing comfort
13. • Recognition for commitment to green
• Water savings : 40 – 50 %
• Energy savings: 20 – 30 %
• Third party verification of design
• Priority in Environmental clearance from MOEF for
projects above 20,000 sqm. of built-up area
• Upto 5% extra FAR for green buildings in Noida and Punjab
• Financial assistance from SIDBI for SMEs (lower interest
rate)
• Marketing exposure through listing on IGBC/ USGBC website
BENEFITS
14. INDIAN GREEN RATINGINDIAN GREEN RATING
• GRIHA is a rating tool that helps people assesses
the performance of their building against certain
nationally acceptable benchmarks. It evaluates
the environmental performance of a building
holistically over its entire life cycle, thereby
providing a definitive standard for what
constitutes a ‘green building’. The rating system,
based on accepted energy and environmental
principles, will seek to strike a balance between
the established practices and emerging
concepts, both national and international.
