Energy and Atmosphere – Green Building Technology

Have a look at the LEED v4 BD+C Energy and Atmosphere prerequisites and credits, which stress the importance of metering for better energy efficiency and management and the importance of minimising energy usage both inside and outside the building.

At each session, participants will learn about a new LEED credit while seeing one or more brief videos that clarify important concepts. These workshops focus on the particulars that you need to know in order to become a LEED practitioner and bring the LEED reference book to life. These sessions can take the form of anything from case studies to calculator walk-throughs. Make sure to check back frequently while you compile these credits for your project, as new material is being uploaded on a consistent basis.

It is difficult for project teams to stay up with the most recent technical criteria and implementation methodologies due to the introduction of LEED version 4. This course will walk you through each of the credits for the Energy and Atmosphere category of the LEED v4 Building Design and Construction Rating Systems in a step-by-step manner. By expanding your present knowledge of the LEED requirements, referenced standards, related credits, and design solutions, you can save time, money, and hassle on your project. You will examine scenarios, technology, case studies, and computations from the real world to see how they exemplify best practises.

There is a holistic view of energy in the EA category. It explores energy efficiency, low-energy design practises, and alternative energy sources.

Focusing on design that decreases total energy consumption, such as building orientation and glass selection, and the use of climate-appropriate building materials, are the foundation of a green building’s efficiency in this regard. Passive heating and cooling, natural ventilation, and high-efficiency heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems with smart controls can all contribute to further lowering a building’s energy consumption.

Credits for lowering energy use, improving energy efficiency in design, and increasing renewable energy use all contribute to the EA’s goal of lowering energy demand.The Energy and Atmosphere credits focus first on reducing energy loads and demand, using necessary energy efficiently, and applying renewable sources where possible. This course covers each prerequisite and credit in a credit-by-credit format, presenting technical requirements and strategies that work to achieve them.

The Energy and Atmosphere – Green Building Technology Training Program was prepared by a Sr. Energy Specialist – Krishnaji Pawar
