The document discusses two examples of net-zero energy buildings: the Suzlon One Earth Global Corporate Headquarters in Pune, India and the University of Dubai campus in the UAE. The Suzlon headquarters uses renewable energy sources like solar panels, photovoltaic cells, and wind turbines to meet its total energy needs. It also utilizes sustainable materials, efficient lighting and HVAC systems, and water recycling. The University of Dubai campus installed a $1.47 million ground-mounted solar system, making it the first net-zero energy building in the region. The system offsets 100% of the campus' electricity usage and saves on carbon emissions and water.
