8. IT/ITeS Special Economic Zone, Delhi NCR, India greenspaces
PROJECT VISION
• Buildings account for 40% of all the energy used by humans on the
planet
• Energy demand is set to increase by 30% in the next 10 years
• 60% of human population will be living in cities in the next 15 years
• There is a growing preference for working and living in healthy &
safe air-conditioned spaces
• By reducing the amount of energy used in buildings on the demand
side, and generating & using renewable energy, one can
significantly reduce carbon emissions, and earn carbon credits
• GreenSpaces will be meaningful for society as it will demonstrate
that it is possible to reduce energy footprint from 40% to 10% while
improving productivity & health of occupants
