GOALS OF GREEN BUILDING
Sustainability isALWAYS local (context specific).The
minute we start importing designs, technologies, products or
materials, the environmental impact increases multi-fold,
defeating the very purpose of designing a green building
5. BENEFITS OF GREEN BUILDING
Environmental Benefits:
• Reduce wastage of water
• Conserve natural resources
• Improve air and water quality
• Protect biodiversity and ecosystems
Social Benefits:
• Improve quality of life
• Minimize strain on local infrastructure
• Improve occupant health and comfort
Economic Benefits:
• Reduce operating costs
• Improve occupant productivity
• Create market for green product and
services
6. GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment)
GRIHA - Sanskrit word meaning – ‘Abode’
• An innovative tool for sustainable development by the United
Nations.
• A tool for implementing renewable energy in the building sector by ‘The
Climate Reality project’- an organization founded by Mr. Al Gore; and
UNEP-SBCI has developed the “Common Carbon Metric” (kWhr/sq
m/annum), for international building energy data collection -based on
inputs from GRIHA (among others)
NAME: GRIHA
COUNTRY: INDIA
ESTABLISHED: 2007
7. OBJECTIVES OF GRIHA :
• minimize a building’s resource consumption, waste generation, and
overall ecological impact
• evaluates the environmental performance of a building holistically over
its entire life cycle, thereby providing a definitive standard for what
constitutes a ‘green building’
• based on accepted energy and environmental principles, seeks to strike
a balance between the established practices and emerging concepts
• Reduced energy consumption without sacrificing the comfort levels
• Reduced destruction of natural areas, habitats, and biodiversity, and
reduced soil loss from erosion etc.
8. WHY CHOOSE GRIHA ?
• To lower operating costs
• For higher return on investment
• For greater tenant attraction
• For enhanced marketability
• For productivity benefits
• To reduce liability and risk
• To build healthier places to live and work
• For demonstration of Corporate Social Responsibility
• For future-proofed assets
• To gain competitive advantage
9. GRIHA PROCEDURE:
• GRIHA assesses a building out of 34 criteria
• Awards points on a scale of 100
• To qualify for GRIHA certification, a project must achieve at least 50 points
Eligibility
• Except for industrial complexes, all buildings – offices, retail malls, institutions,
hotels, hospitals, health-care facilities, residences, and multi-family high-rise
buildings – in the pre-design/design stage are eligible for certification under GRIHA
• ADaRSH (Association for Development and Research of Sustainable Habitats)
examine project documents to help project eligible for GRIHA rating and render
requisite assistance for registration
10. GRIHA PROCEDURE:
Registration Process :
• Building project may register through the GRIHA website
(http://www.grihaindia.org)
•For ease of adoption, registration should be completed at the onset of the project
cycle
•The registration process allows for access to essential information such as
o Application forms
o List of required submissions
o Score points
oThe weightage system and
o Online documentation
11. GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment)
Evaluation Process :
1. Pre documentation stage –
A team from ADaRSH along with the client’s Integrated Design Team meet and
determine the points being targeted by the project
2. Post documentation stage –
• All necessary proof through documents for the points targeted under various
criteria is submitted
• Evaluation by third party regional evaluators
• To determine final rating that shall be awarded to the project
12. GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment)
The preliminary evaluation is done by a team of experts from ADARSH
o Reviewing of the mandatory points and checking for compliance. The project is
rejected if mandatory criteria are not complied with
o Evaluation of the optional criteria and estimation of the total number of
achievable points
o All compliance documents are vetted through the appraisal process as outlined by
GRIHA
After the necessary documentation is uploaded, and systems commissioned on site, the
building is evaluated and rated in a three-tier process
• Evaluation report given to members of an evaluation committee : external
experts in building and landscape design, lighting and HVAC design, renewable
energy, water and waste management, and building materials
• The members independently review and award points, a provisional
GRIHA rating is awarded after evaluation of documents submitted

south side creating a strong agenda
for the future for urban buildings
on limited site areas
25. Towards Energy positive Approach
• an initiative to mainstream Solar
energy in urban areas as against coal
and other non-renewables
• first “Energy-Positive” - Urban -
govt. building
26. Towards Energy positive Approach
•More than 50% area
outside the building is
soft with plantation and
grassing
•circulation roads and
pathways soft with
grass paver blocks to
enable ground water
recharge
Polymer plastic grids turn the usual asphalt
fire tender road into a soft paved space Preservation of existing
foliage by increasing the front
setback
27. Towards Energy positive Approach

31. Site and Water Management
To Reduce landscape water
requirement :
•Drip irrigation
•Use of native species of shrubs and
trees having low water demand in
landscaping
•Low lawn area so as to reduce water
demand
•Reuse of treated water for irrigation
Reduce water use in the building :
•Low discharge fixtures
•Dual Flushing cistern
•Waste water treatment
•Reuse of treated water for irrigation and cooling
towers for HVAC
•Rain water harvesting
Efficient water use during construction
•Use of curing compound
33. Energy Conservation Measures
Energy performance of building within specified comfort limits :
• Reducing energy consumption (compared to GRIHA benchmarks) while maintaining occupant
comfort
• For achieving visual comfort :
o Direct line of sight to the outdoor environment to envision glazing for building occupants
for more than 90% of the occupied spaces
o Avoiding Deep floor plates to create maximum day lighted spaces
o Landscaping planned with native species and water body features in central
court and all around the building
34. Energy Conservation Measures
For achieving Thermal comfort :
o All circulation spaces or passages were naturally ventilated / shaded / hot air Conditioned
o Energy Efficient Chilled heat based Cooling system proposed together with
condenser water cooling through ground pipes
o Operable windows were proposed in conditioned areas to be able to utilize favorable
outdoor conditions
o Insulated Walls through using an integrated AAC + Rockwool combination
together with high efficiency DGU’s and UPVC frames for the windows
35. Usage of Materials with Low Embodied energy
Cool Roofs with high SRI tiles- high strength, hard
wearing
• AAC Blocks with fly ash for recycling and
insulation
• Fly ash based Plaster & Mortar
• Stone and Ferro cement Jalis
• Local Stone Flooring
• Bamboo Jute Composite Doors and frames &
flooring
• High Efficiency Glass, high VLT, low SHGC &
Low U-value, Optimized by shading
• Light Shelves for bringing in diffused sunlight
Terrazzo Flooring
37. Annual Energy Production & Consumption (MWh)
• Extra Efficient (imported) Solar photo voltaic (SPV) Proposed (Terrace &
Projections) : 800 kW
• Energy produced by above : 14,91,000 kWh SPV Panels per year
• Energy consumption for bldg. / year : 14,21,000 kWh
Energy Positive Building
38. Performance Parameter
Geothermal Cooling
• Condenser water heat shall be rejected to earth by boring at
suitable depth & sending hot water at 100°F (37.8° C) &
back at 900 F (32.2° C)
• Enormous water saving since no make up water is required
• Make up water pumping & treatment cost get eliminated
• Saves cooling tower fan energy.
39. Active Chilled Beams
Working Principle
Supply air flows through nozzles in small air jets which induce room air
to flow around the coil & air gets cooled
Design / Constructional / operational Advantages
• Reduces power consumption
• Easy Installation
• No noise as no moving parts
• Easy Air balancing activity
• No filters maintenance
• Save architectural space height
40. Net Zero Design
IPB reduces energy requirement by 70% overall vis-à-vis conventional
N-S Orientation – Limiting WWR – Insulation on wall & roof– Extensive
Greenery to reduce heat load
Maximizing Day lighting to reduce lighting loads
Extremely Low Lighting Power Density – 5w/sqm
Planning to Minimize AC loads (Keeping open atrium for cross
ventilation, Non conditioned lobbies)
Efficient HVAC with Screw Chillers, VFD’s, Chilled Beams
Ground based heat exchange for Condenser Water
Remote Computing - thin client servers
Energy efficient appliances (5 star BEE)
…. SPV’s for the remaining load
