A Beijing business owner wants to build a new office and dispatch center that meets budget and minimizes life cycle costs through sustainable design. The building envelope and construction were designed to optimize insulation and solar heat gain to offset winter heating demands. An analysis of the design found it would reduce annual energy consumption from over 900,000 kWh to under 400,000 kWh and achieve net zero energy through the use of geothermal heating/cooling, LED lighting controls, and an oversized solar array.
Infosys EC-53 (M & C Building), Bangalore – Making Energy Conservation a HabitDanfoss India
EC-53 building of Infosys in Bangalore is the first building in India to implement a radiant panel based cooling, developed in-house, leading to sensible cooling. EC-53 building of Infosys in Bangalore boasts of achieving the target of 50% reduction in per capita electricity and 42% water consumption.
For its commitment to develop a green infrastructure through various energy efficiency measures and sustainable practices, Infosys was inducted in to the ACREX Hall of Fame on February 24th, 2017 at ACREX 2017.
Active style of architecture.
Based on the renewable energy resources such as wind mill, solar energy based ac systems, zero discharge site, etc.
Designed as per climatology and geographical location of site.
What cost-effective options are available for building owners interested in reducing their building’s energy use? CEE's Director of Engineering Services, Mark Hancock, P.E., will discuss rooftop unit retrofits as a scalable energy-saving approach and recommend next steps.

Challenges implementing Green Initiatives in Tall BuildingsTejwant Navalkar
We take a look at challenges in implementing Renewable Energy to meet Green Building Requirements in Tall buildings. This paper also suggests possible solutions to meet these challenges through a case study and makes a case to review the existing Green Building guidelines with respect to Renewable Energy to make to effective and socially relevant.
Barangaroo South District Cooling Plant (DCP) Fact SheetDeanDallwitz
Something I'm pretty proud of. Heat load still growing as the precinct gets built out, but already hitting CoP's HVAC Engineers only dream about. This is a major contributor to the Carbon Neutral, Zero Waste and Water Positive commitments for the Barangaroo South District and a bespoke project I led with some very talented Lendlease engineers. Yes designed by Lendlease and built by Lendlease. This is the only one like it in the world!

Small Council, Big Vision, Bigger Savings - AIRAH Pre-loved Buildings 2014Yale Carden
Presentation showing the incredible energy savings potential of geoexchange / ground source heat pumps for heating and cooling commercial buildings. This presentation was delivered at the AIRAH Pre-loved Buildings Conference in Brisbane, Australia in October 2014.
Titled Small Council, Big Vision, Bigger Savings, it takes the audience on the journey of this project from initial concept through to completion. It discussed both the incredible energy and dollar savings while also addresses the importance of the project team and their importance in delivering what was a truly great project.
Property Developers, after a slow start, acknowledged the concept of development lifetime costing and swiftly realized the need to review their project, its components to accommodate sustainability as a driver of the engineering systems. The presentation sheds light on most Engineering systems explored including Energy and water Efficiencies through both Passive Design and Active Designs, District Cooling , Alternative Energy like Cogeneration, Solar Harvesting and Geothermal Energy with some highlights on Transportation, Parking, Foundations and Geotechnical Investigation
Tipperary Energy Agency has launched a pilot funding project that aims to deliver a deep retrofit for homes funded with a repayable loan and significant capital discounts. The project aims to move away from shallow retrofit and test applications of whole house retrofit focusing on cost effective solutions. This type of retrofit is designed to significantly decrease Ireland’s carbon emissions from the domestic sector and is critical to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases.
