Jit Kumar Gupta, Co-Chair, IGBC Green Hill Habitat Rating System and Former Advisor (Town Planning), PUDA, emphasised the need for green spaces and buildings in the planning and development processes.
“By prioritising the incorporation of green spaces and green buildings, we can reduce energy consumption, improve air quality, and create a more liveable environment for all. As the world moves towards low carbon emissions, IGBC’s launched a mission on net zero has been successful in this endeavour, with more than 350 leading organisations committing to achieve net-zero status for their new and existing buildings, in which energy plays a key role.”
The session was part of the ongoing CII Coolex exhibition on air-conditioning, refrigeration and ventilation, which is showcasing the best of technologies in energy-saving, intelligent, and eco-friendly solutions for commercial and industrial enterprises as well as households.
