The IIM Kozhikode campus in Kerala covers an area of 1,02,210 square meters with a built-up area of 29,599 square meters. Through various sustainable strategies, the campus achieved a 66.11% reduction in energy consumption compared to benchmarks and a 5-star rating under GRIHA. These strategies included planting over 500 new trees, installing water-efficient fixtures to reduce demand by 59.26%, generating solar power on site, and using sustainable materials like fly ash bricks. Waste is also segregated and managed on site to minimize environmental impact.

Site Area : 1,02,210 m2 Built-up Area : 29,599.412 m2 Energy Consumption Reduction : 66.11% reduction in Energy Consumption compared to GRIHA benchmark EPI : 61.7 kWh/ m2/year GRIHA Provisional Rating : 5 Star Rating (Version: 3.1) Year of Completion : 2019 The following strategies were adopted to reduce the building impact on the natural environment: ÞÞ Sustainable Site Planning: • Out of 1,119 existing mature trees, 107 trees were cut and 585 new trees were planted. • Air pollution control measures such as site barricading, wheel washing facility and other appropriate measures were strictly adhered to during construction. ÞÞ Water Management: • Reduction of 59.26% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in the building water demand by installing water efficient fixtures. • Reduction of 76.77% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in the landscape water demand. • Hessian cloth was used for curing of columns and ponding technique was used for curing of slabs. • The project meets 100% of the water demand through reuse of treated water and collected rainwater. ÞÞ Water and Waste: • Reduction of 50.16% from the SVAGRIHA base case has been demonstrated in building water demand by installing water efficient fixtures. • Reduction of 53.44% from the SVAGRIHA base case has been demonstrated in the landscape water demand. • Rainwater recharge pit of 1,14,290 litres capacity has been constructed on site. ÞÞ Energy Optimization and Occupant Comfort: • Digital timer control has been provided for 100% of the outdoor lighting system. • EPI reduction of 66.11% from the GRIHA benchmark has been demonstrated. • 52.3% of the habitable spaces are day-lit and meet the daylight factors as prescribed by NBC code, 2005. • 50 kWp solar PV panels have been installed on site. • Solar hot water system (flat plate collector type) of a total of 16,000 lpd capacity was installed in the project. ÞÞ Sustainable Building Materials: • Fly-ash bricks and AAC blocks have been used for walling in the project. • Pozzolana Portland cement with 34.4% fly-ash content by weight has been used in plaster and masonry mortar. • More than 70% of the materials used for internal partitions/ paneling /false ceiling /in-built furniture are low-energy. ÞÞ Waste Management: • Multi-colored bins have been provided at every floor to collect and segregate waste at source. • A dedicated place has been provided on site to store segregated waste prior to disposal.
