A joint initiative from Mahindra and Johnson Controls
Net Zero Buildings Initiative

A sustainable buildings toolkit for India

NZBI

Sustainable Buildings Toolkit to decarbonize buildings in India

Buildings account for roughly 60% of emissions from cities, and their energy demand is expected to grow as the population and economy expand. This is especially true in the Indian context, where 70% of GDP comes from cities. To achieve the goals of Paris Agreement, rapid transformation is needed in the way buildings are designed, constructed, and operated. Similar to renewable energy and electric vehicles, there is an increasing focus on accelerated action to decarbonize buildings.

Why Net Zero Buildings Initiative (NZBI)?

With rapid urbanization and economic growth in India, it is expected that a significant capacity of building stock that is required by 2050 is yet to be built. Buildings consume approximately 30% of the electricity generated in India today.

To address this, the Government of India is encouraging adoption of energy saving practices in buildings, deeper implementation of energy conservation building codes, amendment to energy conservation act, reporting of sustainability initiatives for large businesses, equitable access of clean energy for buildings among other initiatives.

Identifying and implementing conservation measures

Critical to realizing any future goal is understanding where buildings stand today. Digital technology will quickly and accurately paint that picture by automatically measuring and aggregating your utility data and converting it into industry standard metrics. It provides a single dashboard that pulls together information on energy usage, utility spend and carbon emissions, eliminating the need to manually process the data from disparate sources.
