    The ITC Mud Fort residential building in Bengaluru adopted various sustainable strategies to reduce its environmental impact and earn a 5-star GRIHA rating. These included passive solar design with adequate cross ventilation and daylighting, sustainable site planning with tree planting and permeable paving. Energy and water conservation measures like efficient fixtures, LED lighting, and a solar water heater reduced consumption. Waste was segregated on site and recycled, and materials with lower embodied energy were used in construction.

    Built-up Area : 13875 m2
    Air-Conditioned Area : 3889.2 m2
    Non-Air-Conditioned Area : 1288.6 m2
    Typology : Residential
    Energy Consumption Reduction : 30.9% reduction in energy consumption compared to
    GRIHA benchmark
    Energy Performance Index (EPI) : 58.7 kWh/m2/year
    Renewable Energy : Solar water heater of 6.5 kL capacity installed on site with a
    potential of saving 47677 kWh per year

    The following strategies were adopted to reduce the building impact on the natural environment:
    ÞÞ Solar Passive Design Strategies:
    • Well-designed balconies have been provided along the façade to avoid solar radiation and heat ingress.
    • Adequate window to wall ratio has been maintained in the project which allows cross ventilation and 75% day-lighting.
    • Concrete wall offering a U-value of 0.39 W/m²K adds to the overall energy savings. Overall building envelope
    is ECBC compliant.
    • The architecture of the building with a central courtyard allows for a seamless flow of wind across the site.
    • Apart from green spaces on the ground, the project has also provided green spaces at different levels with
    terrace gardens adding to the thermal comfort.
    ÞÞ Sustainable Site Planning:
    • 3 meters high barricading was constructed all around the site to prevent air pollution.
    • Out of the 49 existing trees, 7 trees were cut and 22 new trees were planted which are native to the region.
    • More than 50% paved area uses high SRI pavers.
    • Openings have been designed in the building to maximize cross ventilation.
    ÞÞ Water management:
    • Reduction of more than 59% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in landscape water demand
    through use of highly efficient drip irrigation system.
    • Reduction of 60% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in building water use by installing water
    efficient flush and flow fixtures.
    • Total fresh water demand of the building is reduced by 89% because of circulation of recycled waste water for
    various building activities.
    ÞÞ Energy Optimization:
    • High efficacy lamps are installed for exterior lighting which is operated by timer controller.
    • Energy consumption is reduced to 31% as against the GRIHA benchmark. Building is equipped with efficient
    LEDs and BEE 5-star rated air conditioners in the interiors.
    • EPI reduction of 34.3% from GRIHA benchmark has been demonstrated.
    • 68.5% of the habitable spaces are day lit and meet the daylight factors prescribed by the National Building Code
    of India.
    ÞÞ Renewable Energy Technology installed on site:
    • Solar water heater of 6.5 kL capacity is installed in the building which has a saving potential of 47677 kWh per
    year amounting to 73% savings as against conventional energy consumption.
    ÞÞ Waste Management:
    Bengaluru
    • Multi-colored bins are used in the building for segregation of dry and wet waste.
    • Demarcated segregated space has been allocated for collecting waste from the entire building before transferring
    it to the recycling/disposal stations.
    ÞÞ Sustainable Building Materials:
    • Pozzolana Portland Cement (PPC) and Gyproc plaster indicating use of 30% fly-ash content by weight has been
    used in plaster and masonry mortar.
    • Low embodied energy materials are used for building construction.
