Paper Details

This study throws light on building’s efficiency like energy efficiency, material efficiency and waterefficiency performance in residential housing project of India without compromising occupants comfort conditions. TheGreen Building Studio, Openstudio, EnergyPlus and Insight 360◦ software has been used for building energy modelingand simulation as a tool to improve energy efficiency of residential building of India by investigating appropriateness ofproposed energy efficiency, material efficiency and water efficiency measures. The steady increase in energyconsumption and demand will eventually require further investment in energy generation; otherwise serious shortagemay occur. In most countries including India, building sector consumes major portion of the electrical energy generated.The use of probable water increase due to lack of public awareness about the availability of drinking water in India andpeoples having lack of knowledge about the rain water harvesting system. In material management also contractorshaving no idea about the carbon emission rate has been increase day by day due to less use of green and sustainableproduct. Therefore, this study has focused on selection of residential housing project in India which were under designphase for assessment of building performance in energy, water and material efficiency. To achieve this goal, dataregarding building envelope, building comfort condition and criteria for sustainable building, etc. were collectedthrough a literature review and journals related to building rating system. Form selected residential housing projectlocated in India. The selected residential housing building 3D model prepared in Revit architecture. The proposedenergy efficiency measures for building envelop, building comfort condition and criteria for sustainable housing buildingwere categorized and proposed on their economic value such as initial capital investment and payback period. Theenergy efficiency measures related to building envelop such as solar water heater, solar panels, street lights using solarenergy.
