Abstract
Amid the modern-day fluctuating energy prices, the impact on the climate and the statistics regarding the energy consumption, buildings are the main consumers in India. If the energy efficient methodologies are brought into the design procedures, the buildings so constructed will be future ready and highly efficient. The existing buildings will thus be a thing of the past and energy producing and low carbon footprint producing buildings will be achieved. Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) are the buildings that will shape the futuristic societies and help us achieve what was previously thought to be impossible. These NZEBs will be the saviours of the environment and will represent the future of humanity. The NZEBs are all about the interconnectivity of the man made environment and the ecosystem. With the future of the resources getting diminished day by day, the modern buildings need to be energy efficient as well as energy producing. In a NZEB, the total energy that is consumed is equal or sometimes less than the energy generated by renewable energy technologies installed on site. Multiple strategies are placed in to make the NZEB very efficient. In this paper, we tend to discuss the necessary arrangements that need to be deployed in Net Zero Energy Buildings in the Kashmir division of the UT of Jammu & Kashmir, India.
Highlights
Imagine getting into your car, putting you key in ignition but nothing happens
The site allocated for a Zero Energy Building is so much that it can generate the amount of energy that it is going to consume throughout the year
The climatic conditions and the geographical features of the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir suggest many modifications pertaining to the design and construction of a Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) (Net Zero Energy Building)
Summary
Imagine getting into your car, putting you key in ignition but nothing happens. Population of the world is growing exponentially to levels unimaginable. The two main aspects that define the net zero energy are the ability of the buildings to use the amount of energy it needs but it should during the year, produce enough energy equal to the consumption during that year and the other being the operations. In these buildings, all the elements are identified and selected in such a way that they provide maximum efficiency to the building and the seasonal variations are studied to make sure that nothing is missed and arrangements are made .
