1 AIC TECH 2015 Sustainability in Practice Turning Ideas into Reality Jan 16, 2015 FUTURE & NET ZERO BUILDINGS

2 CONTENTS Introduction to Net Zero Can we get to Net Zero? Pathway to Net Zero Energy Buildings Case studies

3 Net Zero Is The Next Wave Of Green Buildings

4 Net- Zero Energy Building Energy Consumed = Renewable Energy Produced

5 Net- Zero Energy Building Energy Positive Building + More Energy Produced Than Consumed Net Zero Energy Building = Equivalent Energy Produced Near Zero Energy Building - Less Energy Produce Than Consumed

6 CAN WE GET TO ZERO ENERGY?

7 Can we get to Net Zero? Benchmark for Commercial Buildings (140 Kwh/Sqm/yr) Where we would be if all current buildings are complaint to ECBC (75-80 New Buildings) Where we could be with current technologies (35-40 Max Tech Eff scenario) Add Renewables to reach Net Zero (15-20 Max Tech Eff scenario with renewables) EPI Kwh/Sqm/ year

8 OUR NET ZERO EXPERIENCE

55 Annual & Seasonal Wind Direction Analysis Annual Window Direction Analysis Seasonal Window Direction Analysis NORTH Summers: Mar to Jun Predominant Wind: From North-West WEST EAST Monsoon: Jul to Oct Predominant Wind: From North Building Plan with Superimposed Annual Predominant Wind Direction Analysis: From North-West SOUTH Monsoon: Jul to Oct Predominant Wind: From West

56 COURTYARD ANALYSIS BY WIND CFD ANALYSIS As Designed Pedestrian Level Wind Flow As Designed Wind Flow Through Courtyard Wind Flow Wind Direction Ambient Wind Velocity - North West (Annual Predominant Wind) ~ 6 m/s (Predominant Average) Wind Velocity at Pedestrian Level ~ 2 m/s (Comfortable) Wind Flow Through Courtyard ~ 2.5 m/s 5 m/s (Windy & Uncomfortable) Wind Flow in Open Area at Building Front ~ 0.5 m/s 1 m/s

57 INTERVENTION 1 Closure of Opening on SE façade for Courtyard Courtyard One Side Closed Pedestrian Level Wind Flow Courtyard One Side Closed Wind Flow Through Courtyard Wind Velocity at Pedestrian Level ~ 2 m/s (Comfortable) Wind Flow Through Courtyard ~ 0.5m/s 3.5 m/s (Controlled & Comfortable) Wind Flow in Open Area at Building Front ~ 0.5 m/s 1 m/s

58 Site with Context Wind Flow ANALYSIS WITH SITE CONTEXT

59 ANALYSIS WITH SITE CONTEXT Courtyard One Side Closed & Context Pedestrian Level Wind Flow Courtyard One Side Closed with Context Wind Flow Through Courtyard Wind Velocity at Pedestrian Level ~ 2 m/s (Comfortable) Wind Flow Through Courtyard ~ 0.5 m/s 2.5 m/s (Controlled & Comfortable) Wind Flow in Open Area at Building Front & Back ~ 0.5 m/s 1 m/s (Poor Ventilation & Uncomfortable)

60 ANALYSIS FINDINGS Building needs to be analyzed in its context as the wind flows are largely altered by surrounding buildings & landscape. Open spaces at site must be analyzed for designing landscape for pedestrian thermal comfort. By Blocking One site of courtyard, Wind flow inside Courtyard can be controlled to comfortable limits. North-East & South-West facades of building has better potential for harnessing wind for enhanced natural ventilation inside building. Type of operable windows (top-hung/side hung/sliding in building facades should be selected based on wind movement pattern around building.
