Green Buildings for a Sustainable Future of Planet Earth

Introduction

As per UNEP (United Nations Environment Program), carbon emissions from buildings constituted 38% of all carbon emissions in 2019, and carbon dioxide emissions need to be cut to half by 2030 for net-zero carbon building stock by 2050. In this regard, to further the cause of green buildings, the concept of zero energy buildings is gaining popularity. In zero energy buildings, the exact amount of energy that is consumed by the building is produced by it during a year. At present, there are only a small number of net-zero energy buildings, however, with advancements in construction technology, and progress made in renewable energy systems and other allied technologies, building net-zero energy buildings is becoming easier with each passing day.

Benefits of Green building

• Green buildings promote sustainability and conservation of natural resources, leading to positive environmental impact.
• Green buildings reduce the overall carbon footprint of buildings as the emissions of carbon dioxide are cut by switching to cleaner fuels, and the use of renewables.
• Natural light and ventilation are ample in green buildings, leading to better health and productivity of the occupants.
• There is a significant reduction in the utility bills of the green building occupants by helping to save a substantial amount of energy and water consumption.
• Green buildings result in better indoor air quality which translates into lower concentrations of carbon dioxide and other pollutants.

Green Buildings Market and Trends Influencing This Sector

As per leading market research companies, the market of green buildings was nearly 250 billion dollars in 2020. As per the Reports and Data market research company, the green building market is poised to expand at the CAGR of about 13% during the time of 2021-2026. Ecofriendly infrastructure is popular for reducing the carbon footprint of residential and commercial buildings and covers the entire lifecycle of the green buildings in the form of site selection, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of such buildings.
