The 5-star rated office building uses various passive design strategies to reduce its energy consumption by 61% compared to standard buildings. These include optimizing window orientation for daylighting and natural ventilation. On-site renewable energy systems like a 42.5 kW solar PV plant and 600 liter solar water heater further reduce the building's energy needs. Sustainable materials like AAC blocks, fly ash bricks, and insulated roof tiles improve energy efficiency. Additionally, rainwater harvesting, greywater treatment, and efficient fixtures help reduce water consumption by 70%.
