Project Components

1. Strengthen institutional capacities at various levels on the enactment and enforcement of ECBC for commercial buildings

2. Enhance technical capacity and expertise of local building practitioners and service providers

3. Increase number of new commercial buildings that are ECBC compliant

4. Readily available and easily accessible/shared information and knowledge products on best practices regarding EE building technologies and measures

12/5/2016

1. Strengthen Institutional Capacity

» Key targets: At least 20 states and 20 cities issue ECBC notification

Activity: ECBC Cell

Established 5 state level ECBC cells in Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Chhattisgarh, Punjab and Haryana. 3 to 4 technical staff provided by the project review existing bye-laws, prepare documents to make ECBC amendments to provide input to issue ECBC notification

Achievement 1: Ten States have notified ECBC, Rajasthan, Odisha, Uttarakhand, UT of Puducherry, Andhra Pradesh, Punjab, Telangana, Haryana, West Bengal and Karnataka.

Achievement 2: PWD, Karnataka has issued Schedule of Rates

Way to go:

Ten more states have amended bye-laws and are in the process of issuing ECBC notification Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Delhi.

1. Strengthen Institutional Capacity

Provided ECBC compliance kit

» Five ECBC Cells are provided with DesignBuilder and IDA ICE simulation software for performing ECBC compliance analysis on upcoming building

Way to go

» Procurement of software is in progress for 9 more states

» Received Request for ECBC cells from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala, Delhi, West Bengal

» Expression of interests received from the cities of Dharmashala and Cuttack

Looking ahead

» All states issue ECBC notification

» Building software's are used to comply to ECBC

» States develop a robust EMIS system, data measurement, verification and monitoring system [Russian model under consideration for piloting]

» State enforce ECBC compliance [Building energy passport – Croatian model under consideration]

2. Technical Capacity Development

Completed tasks » Developed benchmark for Energy Performance Index for commercial

buildings for different category of buildings based on total sample size of 1160 buildings.

» Trained 89 ECBC Master Trainers in 9 training programs » Trained 3300 building sector stakeholders on ECBC implementation in 82

training programs. Ongoing tasks » Training programmes in different states New tasks to be undertaken » Consolidation of different manuals » Including Energy efficiency in buildings in professional course curricula like

IITs, SPA

3. ECBC Compliance Demonstration

Target: 1.47 million m2 of Energy Efficient Model Buildings (EEMBs) across 5 climatic zones

Support from project

1. Pilot mobilization [12 buildings in public sector mobilization, 50 to 60 private buildings to be added]

2. Design assistance

3. Construction monitoring

4. Post construction compliance validation

5. Post occupancy compliance validation

6. Setting up measurement, verification and monitoring systems

ECBC in Karnataka and KK Guest

House

» Bengaluru is the city in India with highest commercial office stock, 154 million square feet

» 2014 – Karnataka Government notified ECBC in its gazette

» Kumara Krupa guest house • 19875 m2 of built up space • 162 regular rooms, 40 VIP rooms on 8 floors • Estimated EPI is 107 kWh/m2/year • Estimated annual saving is 700,000 kWh • Additional expenditure Rs 2 crore, 5 years is

the estimated pay back period • Estimated GHG reduction is 570 tCO2 per year

» Karnataka PWD has building stock of 5.1 million m2 of commercial building. If this can be converted to ECBC compliant, it would reduce 102,000,000 kWh of electricity [1000 villages can be electrified]
