High performance glazing technologies
2019-08-08 04:00 - 17:00 | Online Live Webinar
Glazing is integral to building design today. While there are known issues associated with energy use and glare due to the abundant use of glass in buildings, it is still evidently a prominent feature of buildings today. Understanding the key properties of glass and its impact on building energy use will empower the designer/decision-maker to make the right choice on the amount of glazing and the way it is used.
This webinar will focus on the high-performance attributes of glass with case studies showing how a balance can be achieved between energy efficiency and daylighting for a high-performance building design. The webinar will also elaborate on cutting edge glazing technologies available today.
About the speaker:
Venugopal.R is a civil engineer by qualification, having experience in glazing industry for the past 5 years. He leads the Design ACE team of Saint Gobain supporting architects, developers, consultants decide on glazing for their buildings based on Simulations and analyses using state of the art technologies and software. He is a certified green building professional, EDGE Auditor and Glass Academy Trainer who is passionate about sustainability

Occupant perspectives | NZEB at CEPT University
2019-07-23 16:00 - 17:00 | Online Live Webinar
The Centre for Advanced Research in Building Science and Energy (CARBSE) in CEPT University, Ahmedabad houses some of the world’s most cutting-edge research in energy-efficient building design. At the same time, it’s a living laboratory in itself, operating as a net-zero energy building. As a result, the building provides invaluable lessons in designing, constructing and operating a net-zero energy facility.
Clocking an EPI of 25.4 kWh/ m2/ year in 2018, the building uses a combination of active and passive strategies to first reduce its energy demand, followed by on-site solar energy generation. One of the highlights of this lab is that the cooling can switch between different modes of operation depending on outdoor conditions. A Smart Building Management System continuously collects and monitors thermal comfort, energy consumption, and environmental data. Using rigorous monitoring, data analysis and integrated controls – the building has been operating at its highest efficiency since the last 5 years.
This webinar brings on board two foremost members of the CARBSE team- the Exective Director, Prof. Rajan Rawal and Technical Head, Dr. Yash Shukla. Prof. Rawal has pioneered energy-efficient building research and policy in the country for over two decades. Dr. Yash, Technical Head at CARBSE, is recognized for his growing body of research in the field. Together, they bring their expert insights and rich experience of designing, occupying and managing an exemplary Net Zero Energy Building in India.

Evaporative Cooling Technologies
2019-07-17 04:00 - 17:00 | Online Live Webinar
Given a predominantly hot climate in India, nearly half of a typical commercial building’s energy demand comes from comfort cooling making it a critical factor in deciding building performance. The type of cooling system plays an important role in the overall energy efficiency, comfort, operational cost of a building and its environmental impact. Modern evaporative cooling systems are a great low energy alternative to conventional refrigerant based systems – they are relatively inexpensive, clean, energy efficient and highly versatile.
Shamkant Mirashi, head of ‘Arka Clean Technology‘, has over a decade’s experience of designing evaporative cooling systems for industrial-scale setups. A serial entrepreneur in energy efficient tech, he has perfected low-energy cooling systems for retrofit as well as greenfield projects, designed and built around an entirely home-grown heat exchanger. In this webinar, he will discuss different types of evaporative cooling technologies and their applications. He will explain how contemporary designs can work across climate types and why he believes indirect evaporative cooling-assisted HVAC is the future of low-energy cooling.
This webinar is part of ‘NZEB Knowledge Series‘ – an initiative supported by USAID’s MAITREE program to accelerate the discussions and catalyse actions on Net Zero Energy Buildings in India. This webinar-series will bring industry experts to share knowledge, expertise, ideas and showcase innovative products/projects/technology that can fuel discussions on building energy efficiency and grow engagement for NZEBs.

Seminar on Housing Energy Efficiency and ECBC in India
2017-02-27 08:00 - 2017-02-28 17:00 | INDIA HABITAT CENTRE, NEW DELHI
The rapid income growth and vast urbanization in India today have led the buildings sector to unprecedented development. Given that buildings account for one third of India’s total final energy consumption, there is great potential to save energy and enhance energy security by constructing more energy-efficient buildings. Projections show residential energy consumption may rise by 8 times by 2050, but appropriate policies and efforts could help reduce the increase by up to 63 percent. Commercial buildings are also expected to grow fast, and two thirds of India’s commercial building stock in 2030 is yet to be built. Launched by the Ministry of Power in 2007 with an initial focus on the commercial sector, the Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) could help reduce energy use in commercial buildings by 25 to 40 percent compared with typical Indian buildings without code implementation.

States and cities are taking actions to improve building energy efficiency, including building more efficient housing and adopting ECBC. What strategies and policies are they taking and how do these strategies work out? What are the best options for successful implementation of these strategies? What kinds of technologies are available for deeper energy savings? How do housing energy efficiency programs and ECBC synergize with other energy efficiency policies for even broader savings? You will be able to find out all the answers and more in the forthcoming seminar featuring thorough and interactive discussions on housing energy efficiency and ECBC.

Indian Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation (MHUPA) and Indian Housing and Urban Development Corporation Limited (HUDCO) will co-host a seminar with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)*, International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC), Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM), Clean Energy Solutions Center (CESC)**, and Building Efficiency Accelerator partnership (BEA)*** to demonstrate benefits of housing energy efficiency programs and ECBC with real-world examples, share domestic and international experience in implementing building energy efficiency policies and programs, discuss options for enforcement, and link housing energy efficiency programs and ECBC with best available technologies and existing energy efficiency policies.
This event will provide a forum for policy makers, industry, and researchers to explore and discuss strategies to realize the huge energy savings potentials from housing and commercial buildings in India. The two-day seminar will feature discussions on housing energy efficiency, ECBC, strategies for policy implementation, and technology options. Invited speakers and panelists from national, state, and local government agencies, building industry and international research institutes will collaborate in highly interactive presentations, panel discussions, networking and dialogue.
