The document describes the Indira Paryavaran Bhawan building project in New Delhi, which aims to be a net zero energy green building. Some key points: - The building has a 930kWp solar PV system, the largest rooftop system on a multi-story building in India, which meets the building's total energy demand. - Energy efficiency measures like chilled beams, geothermal heat exchange via 180 deep boreholes, and high performance glass optimize energy performance and reduce cooling loads. - Sustainable materials like fly ash concrete, AAC blocks, and jute-bamboo composites are used to reduce embodied energy. - Water conservation strategies like rainwater harvesting and

• Wider Front Setback (22m) to protect front tree line
• Preserve the integrity of the green street
• Preservation of the local ecology, Tree Cutting approvals for 46, but only 19
cut
• - 11 Trees Transplanted
• - Excavated Soil reutilized at other construction sites and the Zoo
•The IPB office building for the ministry of
environment and forests has been planned in 2
parallel blocks facing the
•north south direction, with a large linear
open court in the centre.The Building blocks
create a porous block form to optimize
•air movement throughout the site and the N-
S orientation allows for optimum solar access
and shading.

9. • EFFECTIVE VENTILATION BY ORIENTATING THE BUILDING E-W AND BY OPTIMUM
INTEGRATION WITH NATURE BY SEPARATING OUT DIFFERENT BLOCKS WITH CONNECTING
CORRIDORS AND A HUGE CENTRAL COURT YARD.

12. BUILDING PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION MEASURES
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

13. Site and Water Mgmt Strategies
Appropriate Shading from Summer Sun, while allowing in winter sun

14. Optimize building design to reduce conventional energy demand.-
• ENERGY EFFICIENT LIGHT FITTINGS TO REDUCE ENERGY DEMAND
• PART CONDENSER WATER HEAT REJECTION BY GEOTHERMAL MECHANISM. THIS WILL ALSO
HELP IN WATER CONSERVATION IN COOLING TOWERS FOR HVAC SYSTEM
• VARIABLE CHILLED WATER PUMPING SYSTEM THROUGH VFD.VFD ON COOLING TOWERS
FANS AND AHU.

24. GEOTHERMAL HEAT EXCHANGE
AT SITE:• There are 180 vertical bores at the
Depth of 80 meter all along the
Building Premises. Minimum 3
meter distance is maintained
between any two bores.
• Each bore is lowered with HDPE
pipe U-loop (32mm outer Dia.) and
grouted with Bentonite Slurry.
• Each U-Loop is connected to MS
Header Pipe(100mm Dia.)which
finally joins the Condenser Water
Line in Plant Room.
• Condenser hot water is sent at
100°F (37.8° C) & back at 900 F
(32.2° C).
• One U-Loop has 0.9 TR Heat
Rejection capacity, so all together
160 TR of Heat rejection is obtained
without using a cooling tower.
• Enormous water saving since no
make up water is required.
• • Make up water pumping &
treatment cost get eliminated.
• • Saves cooling tower fan energy.

25. MATERIALS
•Stone available in nearby area for flooring
•Terrazzo flooring with locally available stone
materials.
•Fly ash brick.
•AAC blocks.
