Green Building and Energy Efficiency


• Green building is the practice of designing and constructing buildings that
are environmentally responsible.
• It focuses on reducing the environmental impact of buildings throughout
their life cycle.
• Green building is a design philosophy that focuses on creating structures
that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout
their life cycle.
• It encompasses a wide range of strategies to minimize the negative impact
on the environment and optimize energy performance.
PRINCIPLES OF SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

Reduce Reuse
Minimizing the use of resources like Incorporating recycled and salvaged
energy, water, and materials during materials into the building design
construction and operation. and construction.

Recycle
Ensuring that materials can be easily
recycled at the end of the building's
life.
Energy-Efficient Building Envelope
1. Insulation
Maximizing thermal resistance to reduce heat loss in winter and heat
gain in summer.

2. Air Sealing
Eliminating air leaks in the building envelope to prevent drafts and
improve energy efficiency.

3. Shading

Strategically placing shading elements to reduce solar heat gain


during the hottest months.
4. High-Performance Windows
Using glazing systems with low U-values and high solar heat
gain coefficients.
Renewable Energy Sources for Homes
Solar Energy
Harnessing sunlight to
generate electricity using
photovoltaic panels or solar
thermal systems.
Wind Energy
Utilizing wind turbines to
convert wind kinetic energy
into electricity, suitable for
areas with consistent wind
speeds.
Geothermal Energy
Tapping into the Earth's heat to
provide heating and cooling
through geothermal heat pump

Proper Ventilation
Ensuring adequate fresh air exchange to dilute indoor pollutants and prevent stagnation.

Indoor Plants
Using plants to naturally purify the air by absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen.

Humidity Control
Maintaining optimal humidity levels to prevent dryness or excessive moisture, which
can contribute to health issues.
Water Conservation and Management

Low-flow fixtures
Reducing water consumption in
showers, faucets, and toilets.
Rainwater harvesting
Collecting rainwater for
irrigation and other non-potable
uses.
Graywater reuse
Recycling wastewater from
showers and sinks for irrigation
or flushing toilets.
Water-efficient landscaping
Utilizing drought-tolerant plants
and reducing lawn areas.
The Future of Green Building
1. Net-Zero Energy Buildings
Buildings that produce as much energy as they consume.

2. Smart Building Technologies


Integrating advanced technology to optimize building performance and
energy efficiency.

3. Sustainable Materials
Using recycled and renewable materials to minimize environmental
impact.
• The future of sustainable construction is driven by innovation and
advancements in technology.

• Emerging trends include the use of biobased materials, smart building


technologies, and integrated energy systems.

• These advancements aim to create buildings that are not only


environmentally responsible but also resilient, efficient, and adaptable to
changing climate conditions.
