Property Development and Green Buildings for an Energy Secure World
Urban space is much more dynamic than what a photo or article like this one can ever capture. The concept of an Energy Secure Future with Green Buildings should use resources and energy with a degree of simplicity and directness. The approach towards creating a sense of place, identity and belonging is to develop sustainable communities and improve the environment. Encouraging people to live side by side more closely will help the local ecology to flourish, because the community can utilise superior water stations and sewage treatment plants, as well as improving electricity consumption patterns.
Green building or green construction or sustainable building refers to a structure and using process that is environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition. It expands and complements contemporary building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.
Some smart real estate developers in India are reported to be betting on green buildings - use less energy, water and natural resources, creates less waste and healthier for neighborhood. Though it involve high cost compared traditional buildings, property developers see it as an opportunity, no wonder. Is it for planet earth or their own pockets - anyone's guess.
Many forward-looking companies and government agencies tasked with reducing their environmental footprint have adopted many products, such as solar panels, efficient lighting, and on-site fuel cells or biomass boilers. The energy load of buildings can also be significantly reduced by tightening the building envelope and thick insulation.
