A green building is one that uses less water and energy resources, generates less waste, and provides a healthier space for occupants. The document discusses green building types like commercial, institutional, and residential buildings. It describes the Indian Green Building Council which promotes sustainable built environments in India. Key aspects of green buildings covered include efficient water and energy systems, building materials, indoor air quality, and innovation.

2. INTRODUCTION TO GREEN BUILDING
o A GREEN BUILDING IS ONE
• WHICH USES LESS WATER,
• OPTIMIZES ENERGY EFFICIENTLY,
• CONSERVES NATURAL RESOURCES,
• GENERATES LESS WASTE
• PROVIDES HEALTHIER SPACE FOR OCCUPANTS.

3. • GREEN BUILDING CAN BE USED FOR THE FOLLOWING BUILDING
TYPES:
1. COMMERCIAL
HOTEL, OFFICE, RETAIL, RESTAURANT, WAREHOUSE, COMMERCIAL RECREATION AND
INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES
2. INSTITUTIONAL
HOSPITALS, CLINICS, SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, GOVERNMENT FACILITIES AND OTHER
PUBLIC BUILDINGS
3. HIGH RISE RESIDENTIAL
APARTMENT AND CONDOMINIUM DWELLINGS THAT FALL UNDER PART 3 OF THE
PROVINCIAL BUILDING CODE, TYPICALLY 5 OR MORE STORIES.

4. INDIAN GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL (IGBC)
• THE INDIAN GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL (IGBC), PART OF THE
CONFEDERATION OF INDIAN INDUSTRY (CII) WAS FORMED IN
THE YEAR 2001.
• THE VISION OF THE COUNCIL IS, "TO ENABLE A SUSTAINABLE
BUILT ENVIRONMENT FOR ALL AND FACILITATE INDIA TO BE
ONE OF THE GLOBAL LEADERS IN THE SUSTAINABLE BUILT
ENVIRONMENT BY 2025".

5. IGBC RATING SYSTEM
IGBC’S NEW GREEN BUILDING RATING SYSTEM® ADDRESSES GREEN
FEATURES UNDER THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES:
• SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN
• SITE SELECTION AND PLANNING
• WATER CONSERVATION
• ENERGY EFFICIENCY
• BUILDING MATERIALS AND RESOURCES
• INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
• INNOVATION AND DEVELOPMENT

6. GREYWATER SYSTEM
• GREYWATER
GREYWATER REFERS TO THE WASTEWATER GENERATED FROM
KITCHENS, LAUNDRIES AND BATHROOMS, WHICH IS WASTE
CONTAINING HUMAN EXCREMENT.
• BLACKWATER
BLACKWATER IS WATER THAT HAS BEEN MIXED WITH WASTE FROM THE
TOILET. BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL FOR CONTAMINATION BY
PATHOGENS

7. CONSUMPTION OF WATER
Wastewater type Wastewater source Litre/capita/day
Black water Toilet 15
Water closet 30
Grey water Bathing 75
Washing of clothes 25
Washing of utensils 15
Cleaning of house 15
Total waste water 130+45= 175
Total grey water 130

8. FILTRATION SYSTEM

9. REED BED TREATMENT SYSTEM
• THE PRINCIPLE OF THIS TECHNOLOGY IS TO ACTIVATE MICROBIAL
PROCESSES THAT STIMULATE THE NATURAL BREAKDOWN OF
POLLUTING COMPOUNDS IN A SPECIFIC WASTE WATER SITUATION.
• A REED BED IS ESSENTIALLY A CHANNEL, LINED WITH AN
IMPERMEABLE MEMBRANE, THAT IS FILLED WITH GRAVEL AND
PLANTED WITH MACROPHYTES i.e. REEDS, USED TO TREAT
WASTEWATER.

10. • THE REEDS HELP THE PROCESS IN TWO MAIN WAYS :-
I. THE STEM TRANSFERS OXYGEN TO THE ACTIVE LAYER AROUND THE ROOT
STRUCTURE, WHICH KEEPS THE AREA AEROBIC.
II. THE ROOTS MAINTAIN THE SPACES BETWEEN THE GRAVEL PIECES TO
MAINTAIN A PATHWAY (HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY) FOR THE WATER.

12. SITE ORIENTATION AND VENTILATION
• MAXIMIZING THE AMOUNT OF SPACE TO BE NATURALLY VENTILATED IS ANOTHER
STRATEGY TOWARDS REDUCING ENERGY DEMAND ON A PROJECT SINCE NATURAL
VENTILATION REQUIRES LITTLE ENERGY USE AS COMPARED TO AIR-CONDITIONING.
• ESTABLISHING AND UNDERSTANDING PREVAILING WIND DIRECTIONS AND HOW
THEY WORK ON OUR SPECIfiC SITE WILL AFFECT MASSING AND ORIENTATION
DECISIONS.
• ALLOWING FOR NATURAL AND MECHANICAL VENTILATION ALONG WITH AIR-
CONDITIONING CAN SIGNIfiCANTLY REDUCE ENERGY USE.

17. SOLAR PANEL
• SOLAR ELECTRIC SYSTEMS, WHICH ARE ALSO CALLED PHOTOVOLTAIC OR PV
SYSTEMS, ARE RELIABLE AND POLLUTION-FREE. THEY MAKE USE OF A RENEWABLE
SOURCE OF ENERGY—THE SUN.
• PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) SYSTEMS CONVERT SUNLIGHT DIRECTLY TO ELECTRICITY. THEY
WORK ANY TIME THE SUN IS SHINING, BUT MORE ELECTRICITY IS PRODUCED WHEN THE
SUNLIGHT IS MORE INTENSE AND STRIKES THE PV MODULES DIRECTLY
• PV ALLOWS YOU TO PRODUCE ELECTRICITY- WITHOUT NOISE OR AIR POLLUTION-FROM A
CLEAN, RENEWABLE RESOURCE. A PV SYSTEM NEVER RUNS OUT OF FUEL, AND IT WON'T
INCREASE.

18. COMPONENTS OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL
• PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL — THIN SQUARES, DISCS, OR FILMS OF
SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIAL THAT GENERATE VOLTAGE AND CURRENT
WHEN EXPOSED TO SUNLIGHT.
• MODULE — PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS WIRED TOGETHER AND LAMINATED
BETWEEN A CLEAR SUPERSTRATE (GLAZING) AND ENCAPSULATING
SUBSTRATE.
• ARRAY — ONE OR MORE MODULES WITH MOUNTING HARDWARE AND
WIRED TOGETHER AT SPECIFIC VOLTAGE.

19. • CHARGE CONTROLLER — POWER-CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT TO
REGULATE BATTERY VOLTAGE.
• BATTERY STORAGE — A MEDIUM THAT STORES DIRECT CURRENT (DC)
ELECTRICAL ENERGY.
• INVERTER — AN ELECTRICAL DEVICE THAT CHANGES DIRECT CURRENT TO
ALTERNATING CURRENT (AC) TO OPERATE LOADS THAT REQUIRE
ALTERNATING CURRENT.
• DC LOADS — APPLIANCES, MOTORS AND EQUIPMENT POWERED BY DIRECT
CURRENT.

23. EVALUATING A SITE FOR SOLAR PV SYSTEM
• FACTORS
1. MOUNTING LOCATION
2. SHADING
3. ORIENTATION
4. TILT
