9. ENERGY CONSERVATION 9.1 Give details of the power requirements, source of supply, backup source etc. What is the energy consumption assumed per square foot of built-up area? How have you tried to minimize energy consumption? Source: Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB)

Power requirement: Construction phase: 5MW Operation phase: 155 MW

Air conditioning system: Air conditioning contributes to about 40% of the electricity load during the operation phase in big projects. The choice of the AC system is therefore, crucial in determining the energy efficiency. • In an IT park, peak load experienced is during the day time. This is because outside and internal temperature difference is higher. In such cases water cooled system can handle the loads better. • In case of this project the air conditioning systems proposed for the IT park are as follows: - Air-cooled VRV (Variable refrigerant volume) - Water-cooled Centrifugal Chiller

Benefits of adopting the above systems - i. The VRV AC system is energy efficient as the system operates proportional to the cooling loading using the inverter compressor and the indoor units can be switched on and off as per requirement. ii. The water cooled centrifugal chillers have a good part load performance. Water is re- circulated in this system and so the use of treated wastewater will make this system environment-friendly.

Additionally, all refrigerants proposed to be used will be CFC and HCFC free and therefore ozone friendly.

9.2 What type of, and capacity of, power back-up to you plan to provide? DG sets will serve as 30% of power backup for emergency supply. Since the site will include an IT facility, there will be a dual feeder line to serve as 100% backup.

9.4 What passive solar architectural features are being used in the building? Illustrate the applications made in the proposed project. The building design plan utilizes passive cooling features of incorporating heat avoidance techniques and minimizing the energy consumption . Passive cooling has been planned in the structure design in the form of use of low emissivity glass, shading, thermal insulation and landscaping. • Low Emissivity Glass: Each building will have a minimalist and light elevation with a combination of clear reflective blue glass and glazing systems. Solid massing will be achieved by the limited use of ACP sheets (Aluminum Composite sheets). The glass will be a low emissivity double glazed unit with the coating on the second face of the glass. Such glass will help reflect the solar radiation to the outside. • Shading: The elevation has been designed with consideration to energy conservation, and sunbreakers will be provided at every level. The sunbreakers bear a projection of 500mm from the glass surface. These help reduce the heat load exerted on the glass by the sun thereby reducing the solar gain factor and allow a more economical HVAC design and electrical load caused by it. Use of shading will therefore help cut down on energy costs related to direct summer sun. • Thermal Insulation : Roofs will be made of galvanum sheeting laid to a slope of 1:20 with about 50 mm fiber glass insulation packed at 48kg/m3 density. Underdeck insulation will comprise of 50mm fiberglass bags kept on a metallic wire mesh below the trusses of the galvanum roof. This insulation will hamper the flow of thermal energy. • Landscaping : The plot plan includes sufficient landscapes, gardens, green belts and open spaces intermediating with the proposed buildings.

load caused by it. • Roofs will be made of galvanum sheeting laid to a slope of 1:20 with about 50 mm fiber glass insulation packed at 48kg/m 3 density. Underdeck insulation will comprise of 50mm fiberglass bags kept on a metallic wire mesh below the trusses of the galvanum roof.

9.7 Do the structures use energy-efficient space conditioning, lighting and mechanical systems? Provide technical details. Provide details of the transformers and motor efficiencies, lighting intensity and air-conditioning load assumptions? Are you using CFC and HCFC free chillers? Provide specifications. All refrigerants proposed to be used will be CFC and HCFC free and therefore ozone friendly. The VRV AC system is energy efficient as the system operates proportional to the cooling loading using the inverter compressor and the indoor units can be switched on and off as per requirement. The water cooled centrifugal chillers have a good part load performance. Water is re- circulated in this system and so the use of treated waste water will make this system environment-friendly.

9.8 What are the likely effects of the building activity in altering the micro- climates? Provide a self assessment on the likely impacts of the proposed construction on creation of heat island & inversion effects? The plot plan includes sufficient landscapes, gardens, green belts and open spaces intermediating with the proposed buildings. A large water body will also be created on the site.
