GREENSPACES CHALLENGE – CALL TO ACTION

GreenSpaces‟s mission is to achieve energy savings by reshaping the way

commercial buildings are designed & built

It will demonstrate that the energy footprint can be economically reduced

from 40% to 10% of global energy usage, and serve as a model for all

buildings

Today‟s technologies can cost effectively achieve these energy savings but

is yet to be discovered

The GreenSpaces Challenge invites creative and innovative ideas,

products or services that will reduce cost and /or improve energy efficiency

Join us in this global challenge to bring about changes that will make a

difference. Join the conversation that will change the way future buildings

are built, and help preserve the earth

Best of the class ideas or solutions will be showcased in the flagship

project. For detailed information visit www.greenspaces.in/challenge

PROJECT VISION

• Buildings account for 40% of all energy used by humans on the

planet

• Energy demand is set to increase by 30% in the next 10 years

• 60% of humanity will be living in cities in the next 15 years

• There is a growing preference for working and living in healthy &

safe air-conditioned spaces

• By reducing the amount of energy used in buildings on the demand

side, and generating & using renewable energy, one can significantly

reduce carbon emissions, and earn carbon credits

• GreenSpaces will be meaningful for society, as it will demonstrate

that it is possible to reduce our energy footprint from 40% to 10%

while improving the productivity & health of occupants

Number: BATF-08-49


PROJECT VISION

• Although GreenSpaces is a commercial development, the proposed

Ideas, Innovation and Lifestyle changes are applicable and

replicable in Retail, Hotels, Homes or in any other building,

anywhere in the world

• It is a Cleantech /Greentech /IT application to buildings

• Is a world class project partnered with world class research labs &

companies

• GreenSpaces Project costs, excluding land, is US$ 162MM

• The civil & MEP costs are about 50-50

• The MEP costs for this project are 58% higher than for a standard „A‟

class building, with a pay back period of 6 years on added costs

• The CO2 savings per year are 36,000 tonnes on the demand side

• The above costs need to be reduced

Flagship Project

Number: BATF-08-49


PROJECT VISION

• Energy savings per year are 41MM kWh (74.4% over standard „A‟

class building)

• Energy savings needs improvement

• Onsite renewable energy production is expected to be 1.6 MM kWh

per year from PV, Bio reactors, Regenerative elevators, etc. This

needs to be increased

• Energy saving lifestyle changes such as no jackets & ties in the

summer, ventilated back & bottom ergonomic chairs, variable height

tables, individual workspace temperature controls

• Provision for a healthy & safe work place using natural bio-filtered

indoor air that is of better quality than the ambient air

• The project seeks ideas for healthy living & being happy working

indoors

• Interiors that provide comfort & well-being for inhabitants

Flagship Project

PROJECT VISION

• Healthy food & happy living, outstanding air quality, reduction &

recycling of waste, zero water discharge, reduction of water

usage, availability of quality of drinking water, use of geo-thermal

energy, vertical gardens, maintaining natural habitat for birds &

enhancing the environment from Ornithological perspective using

local biodiversity, energy conservation on demand side, onsite

production of renewable energy, use of non carbon energy such
