Our Key Projects

Implementation & Policy Assistance to ECBC (Uttar Pradesh)GreenTree Building Energy Pvt. Ltd has been involved in the adaption of ECBC guidelines prescribed on the basis of the local climatic

and geographical conditions of the state.

GreenTree, as a member of ECBC (UP) drafting committee, introduced adequate alterations and specifications related to locally available materials and technologies in the draft undergoing notification protocol. It is anticipated that the inclusion of ‘easy to implement’ guidelines shall help the SDA (State designated agency)/ ULBs (Urban local bodies) in implementing the energy code across the state.

Implementation & Policy Assistance to ECBC (Uttarakhand)GreenTree has also been involved in framing up the guidelines for Uttarakhand State. The adapted ECBC focused, primarily, on the local

geological and geographical conditions. Considering the varying climatic conditions (composite and cold climate) within the same state boundary, the ECBC Guidelines have been revised. The connected load and contract demand have been lowered (threshold scope is less than ECBC) to tap more building stock in the state. Also, the new guidelines for industrial buildings have been introduced, to widen the range of the potential energy savings

Indo – Swiss Building Energy Efficiency Project (BEEP)As a part of the project, M/s GreenTree Building Energy Private Limited has been engaged in a study on “Mapping & Assessment of Sustainable Building Rating Systems in India”. The overall objective of the study is to get an overview of rating systems and their response to the energy efficiency challenge in India from the market and the institutional perspective. This study will further lead to exploring the potential of

a simple energy-efficient rating system for the residential building sector.

Development of ECOnirman Tools (www.buildingenergytools.in)

GreenTree aimed at developing a code compliance tool which makes it easier for the user to find out if their proposed or existing building meets the compliance requirements as set by the Indian Government in the Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC). It is intended as a self-contained tool that addresses the Envelope, Air-conditioning, Service hot water system, lighting system, and Electrical Power requirements.

Development of ECObench Tool (www.buildingenergytools.in)

Benchmarking Tool helps building owners/designers in evaluating performance of their buildings by comparing energy consumption of their building with similar buildings. USAID ECO-III Project in partnership with Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) launched an online building energy data collection and benchmarking tool. The building level data collected has been analyzed and used to compute energy consumption benchmarks and comparative performance based rating of the building among its peer group.
