BACKGROUND
WHAT IS GREEN BUILDING?
A ‘green’ building is a building that, in its design, construction or operation,
reduces or eliminates negative impacts, and can create positive impacts, on
our climate and natural environment. Green buildings preserve precious
natural resources and improve our quality of life.
WHAT IS GRIHA?
Name: GRIHA is an acronym for Green Rating for Integrated Habitat
Assessment.
Country: INDIA
Established : 2007
GRIHA is a Sanskrit word meaning – ‘Abode’.
A innovative tool for sustainable development by the united nations
A tool for implementing renewable energy in the building sector by
‘The Climate Reality project’- an organization founded by Mr. Al Gore;
and UNEP-SBCI has developed the “Common Carbon Metric” (kWhr/sq
m/annum), for international building energy data collection -based on
inputs from GRIHA (among others)
There are three primary Rating systems in India:
Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment (GRIHA) is India’s own rating
system jointly developed by TERI and the Ministry of New and Renewable
Energy, Government of India.
It has star based rating system: more stars mean more energy
efficiency. BEE has developed the Energy Performance Index (EPI). The unit
of Kilo watt hours per square meter per year is considered for rating the
building and especially targets air conditioned and non-air conditioned office
buildings.
EVOLUTION OF GRIHA
OBJECTIVE OF GRIHA
GRIHA is more suited to Indian climate. Also unlike LEED, it does not
promote usage of certain products like glass and air-conditioning
equipment.
FIVE ‘R’ PHILOSOPHY
Refuse: To blindly adopt international trends, materials,
technologies, products, etc. Especially in areas where local
substitutes are available.
Reduce: The dependence on high energy products, systems,
processes, etc.
Reuse: Materials, products, traditional technologies so as to reduce
the costs incurred in designing buildings.
Recycle: All possible wastes generated from the building site, during
construction, operation and demolition.
Reinvent: Engineering systems, designs and practices such that India
creates global examples that the world can follow rather than India
following the international examples.
GRIHA PROCEDURE
ELIGIBILITY
Except for industrial complexes, all buildings (offices, institutions,
hotels, hospitals, housing complexes, etc.) in the pre-design/design
stage are eligible for certification under GRIHA.
ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT
Effective ventillation by Orientating The Building E-W
Optimum integration with nature Separating Out Different Blocks
with connecting corridors
A huge Central courtyard
Plan pedestrian axis to East ,North and West entrance without
crisscrossing vehicles
TOWARDS ENERGY POSITIVE APPROACH - RENEWABLE
Façade has been designed to receive
70% of natural day light
Inner courtyard serves as a light
well.
Provision of solar photovoltaics
Photovoltaic stepping towards the
south side
Shades the roof
Renewable Energy Façade of the building
Solar PV System of 800 kW capacity

Total Area : 6000 m
2
Total Area of panels : 4650 m
No of panels : 2,844
Annual Energy Generation : 14.3 lakh Shadding from summer sun
unit while allowing in winter sun
ENERGY POSITIVE APPROACH
Preservation of existing
foliage increasing the front
set back.
SITE AND WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT
To reduce landscape water requirements Appropriate shading from summer sun ,while allowing in winter sun
Drip irrigation
Use of native species of shrubs and trees
having low water demand in landscapping
Low lawn areas so as to reduce water
demand
Reuse of treated water for irrigation
