Potential Retrofitting of Existing Campus Into Green Buildings (original) (raw)

2021, Journal of emerging technologies and innovative research

Green building is building that the focus is to maximize the energy efficiency and resources used. While, retrofitting is the process of renovate or refurnish the existing building. Therefore, by retrofit existing buildings that comply with green building requirement, it improves the environmental attributes of the buildings. A green building uses less energy, water and natural resources, creates less waste and is healthier for the people living inside compared to a standard building. Green building provides suitable environment by controlling solar radiation temperature, energy efficiency, water conservation using domestic treatment plant and indoor air quality. The main aim of green buildings is to reduce the environmental impact of new buildings. Green Building refers to a structure that is environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle. In the present project we have proposed to retrofit the existing campus into green buildings in order to improve its performance.
