    GREEN BUILDINGS: LEED

    CSR
    GROUP 8

    Agenda
    Introduction LEED USGBC Green Buildings in India IGBC GRIHA ECBC

    Need for Green Buildings


    Global warming o Polar ice cap melting o Uncertainity of weather Examples: o Buildings in US contribute 38.1 percent of the nation's total carbon dioxide emissions o Buildings annually consume more than 20% of the electricity used in India

    Solution: Green Buildings


    Definition (IGBC) A green building is one which uses less water, optimises energy efficiency, conserves natural resources, generates less waste and provides healthier spaces for occupants, as compared to a conventional building.

    Implementation
    Prevention of erosion of soil Use of renewable energy Landscapes to reduce heat Reuse of waste water Reduction in use of potable water

    Benefits of Green Buildings


    Environment Benefits:o Improve air and water quality o Reduce waste streams o Conserve and restore natural resources Economic Benefits:o Reduce operating costs o Create and shape markets for green products o Sale price and rental rates o Anticipated tax breaks

    LEED: An Introduction
    Developed by US Green Building Council Internationally recognized green building certification system Provides concise framework to identify and implement practical, measurable green building design, construction, operations maintenance solutions Applicable to commercial and residential buildings

    LEED Project Types


    New commercial construction and major renovation projects (LEED-NC) Existing building operations (LEED-EB) Commercial interiors projects (LEED-CI) Core and shell projects (LEED-CS) Homes (LEED-H) Neighbourhood Development (LEED-ND)

    LEED Levels of Certification


    Certified 40+ points Silver 50+ points Gold 60+ points Platinum 80+ points

    USGBC
    A national nonprofit organization A diverse membership of organizations Consensus-driven

    Committee-based product development

    IGBC Registered Green Hospital Projects in India

    Kohinoor Hospital, Mumbai

    Kohinoor Hospital - Benefits Achieved


    35 % Energy Savings Green Power from Wind Mills Solar hot-water generation Better Indoor Air Quality Regular CO2 monitoring Increased fresh air ventilation No sick building syndrome

    Heat Reclaim System - Higher efficiency than conventional systems Day Lighting - Healing benefits for patients Patient Recovery Faster - Based on research

    Benefits Experienced in LEED Rated Buildings


    3 LEED Platinum Buildings monitored to validate tangible benefits Benefits far exceeding the initial estimates

    Energy consumption depends on Local climate, Density of occupancy, Occupancy schedule, Orientation of the building, Internal loads

    IGBC: Indian Green Building Council


    IGBC is actively involved in promoting the Green Building concept in India. The council is represented by all stakeholders of construction industry The vision of the council is to usher green building revolution and India to become one of the world leaders in green buildings by 2015.

    GRIHA
    Acronym for Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment Rating tool to assess the performance of their building against benchmarks Minimize a buildings resource consumption, waste generation, and overall ecological impact To quantify aspects such as energy consumption, waste generation, renewable energy adoption

    Challenges and Solutions


    Challenges Decentralize people and groups Limited interaction between people and groups Solutions Define and quantify sustainable building practices and their benefits Separate the role of different participants

    Energy Conservation Building Code (2007)


    Developed by BEE with support and guidance from USAID on 28th Jan. 2007 Buildings with electrical load of 500 kW or more Specifies the energy performance requirements for all commercial buildings

    Scope of ECBC
    Building Envelope Interior and Exterior lightening Mechanical Systems (HVAC) Service Water Heating

    Electrical Power and motors

    Implementation Plan
    The code would be implemented in near future The energy conservation awards scheme State and Municipal implementing agencies Design Manuals, Software and provide training Awareness programs for building owners, designers and users
