Towards net zero energy solar building, system, and concepts

The model of converting a conventional energy dependent building to a net zero energy building to reduce the carbon emissions through higher technology adoption in efficiency gains and renewable energy generation to meet consumption. A country like India with abundant rich renewable energy potential resources, the adoption of NZEB is a one step forward to fight against climate change. The proposed strategical shifting from traditional dependency overcomes the serious effect of power outages and natural calamities, helps in better and improved energy security and to minimize carbon foot print. It enforces and highlights the demand side management through the redistribution of load and selection of renewable generation to meet the need of current building to convert and realize the goal. The several strategies are adopted to convert existing building based on conventional energy to a net zero energy building of natural and non-conventional resources discussed in this paper. The present topic which deals with green transformation buildings acts as a real prototype for present and future applications of green building model.
