Introduction - Suzlon

Campus for world’s largest integrated wind

turbine manufacturers.
a. Office Complex b. Corporate learning center
Plot area-45,392 sqm
Built up area-70,865 sqm
Capacity-3000 employees
• Architects: Christopher Benninger
• Cost:Rs.280 crores US$ 63 million (2009)
• LEED platinum and GRIHA five star certified campus

• India’s first campus 100%on renewable energy
Site plan
N
Controlled Solar Access Shading with Mass articulation
– Window with vertical shades to cut off early

morning and late evening sun, from North side.
• Illuminance Levels
•As per NBC 350 Lux average – Lighting Load
•Suspended direct indirect light fittings Insulated/green roof
• Desk and furniture mounted task light
Project Performance Targets - Energy
• Carbon Neutral (through on site + off site energy)

• Zero Net Energy for Lighting (through On-Site generation)
• PV systems integrated in design
• Micro Wind (to be evaluated)
•Biomass (Kitchen waste + STP output + landscape Waste)
• Positive Life Cycle cost of all investments Energy Systems (Except

renewable to have a payback < 5 years)
• Envelope Performance
• Minimal Heat Gain (40% better than ASHRAE 90.1 2007 and ECBC envelope
standards)
• 100% shaded Glazing during summer (AprilOctober)
• Natural Ventilation Potential in transition spaces
• Daylighting (>90% Daylit spaces)
Envelope
HIGH PERFORMANCE GLAZING-
•The exposed glass is 4mm Clear Annealed + 0.76mm PVB + 6mm KT 455
+ 12mm Air gap + 6mm Clear Heat-Strengthened.
•U value- 0.32 Btu/hr.ft2.ºF; Solar Factor- 0.26 which is less than 0.3
prescribed by ECBC for moderate climate zones. Thus, no additional
shading is necessary for these.
Daylight
More than 75% of Regularly occupied spaces are day lit with a DF of >2.5%
Efficient Lighting Design
•Dimmable ballasts in conjunction with daylight sensors

are used throughout the Open Office space.
•General Lighting at 350 Lux.
•The Artificial Lights - dimmed up & dimmed down from
0% to 100% depending on the adequacy of available
daylight to meet the 350lux requirement.
•The Task Lights have an Intelligent Built-in Occupancy
sensor in conjunction with a Continuous dimmer.
•Lighting of individual offices is controlled by combined
daylight and occupancy sensors.
•90 % of the Luminaries in the Office space are with
dimmable ballasts & are either connected to Occulux
sensors, daylight sensors or Occuswitch sensors.
•The installed lighting of office spaces has been designed
at 0.8 W/sq. ft., 0.75W/Sq.ft. for cores, 0.23W/ sq. ft. for
basement parking. Overall L.P.D. by whole building area
method is 0.8 W/ sq. ft.
Energy Efficient HVAC System
•SYSTEM FLEXIBILTY OF VARIABLE REFRIGERANT VOLUME SYSTEM- The
indoor unit's cooling operation can be controlled to maintain desired
temperature in any location in the premises according to end user's needs
and preferences.
•PRE-COOLING AND HEAT RECOVERY AT T.F.A.s-
•A sensible heat exchanger is used as pre-cooler to sink the temperature of
incoming air (say 38.4°C DBT approx.) to approx.27.66°C.
•DIRECT-INDIRECT EVAPORATIVE COOLING
1. Sensible cooling of approx 130% of fresh air in an efficient heat
exchanger, using pre-cooled water.
2. Further cooling of air, and simultaneous cooling of water in indirect
evaporative cooling section of the unit. Air required for cooling tower
part this section is drawn from the outlet of the same section. (This is
the excess 30% quantity which has been cooled in the first and the
second sections). This air is termed commonly as "scavenge air“.
3. Direct evaporative cooling of 100% air in the final section.
Energy: embodied and construction
•Utilization of fly ash in the building structure
•Reduce volume, weight, and time of construction by adopting an efficient technology
•Use low-energy material in the interiors
15% Replacement Of Cement With Fly Ash By Weight Of Cement In Total
Structural Concrete
Use low-energy material in the interiors
•Recycled Content
• Local / Regional Materials
• Rapidly Renewable Materials
• Low-Emitting Materials
Renewable energy utilization
ESTIMATED ENERGY

Renewable-energy-based hot water system
100% of hot water requirement is met by the SHW system

installed on site
Water
•Reduce landscape water requirement

•Reduce building water use
•Efficient water use during construction
Reduce landscape water requirement

•Selection of species
• All permanent planting is of native Species
• Minimization of high maintenance lawn area  Placements of trees along
with shrubs
• Planting of shrubs and ground cover on all exposed soil surfaces
• Use of mulching is done to aid plant growth, and retain soil fertility and
moisture
•Seasonal maintenance plan
• Integrated Pest Control plan
• Innovative ways to control wastage of water
• Use of water from non-potable sources
Reduce building water use
•Water closets
•DUAL FLUSH FULL (6 LPF) and HALF (3 LPF)
•Sensor based urinals
•Urinals with hytronic urinal sensors
•Efficient flow and plumbing fixtures
•Pressure reducing device
•Water conserving shower heads
Efficient water use during construction

•Use Of Ready
•Mix Concrete Efficient Curing System
• Chemical Curing
Waste management
•Reduction in waste during construction

•Efficient waste segregation
•Storage and disposal of waste
•Resource recovery from waste
Other energy efficient measures

•Carpooling
•Offsite green power
•E-charging points
•Zero waste management policy
•Environmental education
•Construction on renewable energy
•Integrated pest management
•Carpooling is encouraged by providing 5% of total vehicle parking

capacity on site as dedicated parking for carpooling.
•Electrical charging points to serve 97 vehicles (16.9% of Total Vehicle
Parking capacity) at one time.
360 degree approach to sustanibility
