Synopsis

Green buildings are designed to reduce their environmental impact over their entire life cycle. This book provides an overview of the principles of green building and energy-efficient systems including benefits of green buildings, the different types of green building rating systems, and the various energy-efficient systems that can be used in buildings. It includes case studies (India’s Green Building policy) of green buildings and energy-efficient systems.

• Illustrates the green building concept and approach towards green design
• Explores the role of green buildings for society and sustainability
• Describes energy-efficient HVAC and low-power IoT devices in buildings
• Discusses a design example of green buildings and quantitative figures for measurement of green buildings
• Includes technologies illustrations and applications supported by examples

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in energy and civil engineering and architecture.
