IGBC Green Campus
The construction sector for the last 10 years has done extremely well in embracing the green concepts. Though initially it started with individual buildings, green is now penetrating into other forms of environment such as Administrative campuses, Convention centers, Educational campuses, IT parks, Leisure & Recreational campuses, Military campuses, Religious campuses, etc.,
The green concepts and techniques in campuses can help address National issues like water efficiency, energy efficiency, reduction in fossil fuel use in commuting, handling of consumer waste and conserving natural resources. Most importantly, these concepts can enhance occupant health, happiness and well-being.
Against this background, the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) has launched 'IGBC Green Campus rating system' to address the National priorities. This rating programme is a tool which enables the designer to apply green concepts and reduce environmental impacts that are measurable.
Benefits
Green Campuses can have tremendous benefits, both tangible and intangible. The most tangible benefits are the reduction in water and energy consumption right from day one of occupancy. The energy savings could range from 20 -30 % and water savings around 30 - 50%. Intangible benefits of green campus include health & well-being of the occupants, enhancing air quality & promoting biodiversity, safety benefits and conservation of scarce national resources.
Overview
IGBC Green Campus rating system addresses green features under the following categories:
- Site Planning and Design
- Sustainable Transportation
- Water Conservation
- Material and Resource Management
- Health & Well-being
- Green Education
- Innovation in Design
The guidelines detailed under each mandatory requirement & credit enables the design and construction of campuses of all sizes and types (as defined in scope). Different levels of green campus certification are awarded based on the total credits earned. However, every green campus should meet certain mandatory requirements, which are non-negotiable.
Scope
IGBC Green Campus rating system is designed for both New and Existing Campuses. The types of Campuses include Administrative campuses, Convention centers, Educational campuses, IT parks, Leisure & Recreational campuses, Military campuses, Religious campuses, etc.,
Buildings within the campus such as new buildings, existing buildings, factory buildings, etc., will be covered under their respective IGBC rating programmes.
IGBC Green Campus rating system is broadly classified into two types:
- New Campuses
- Existing Campuses
Based on the scope of work, projects can choose any of the above options.
The campuses that would be covered under this rating system include:
- Campuses with multiple buildings and same functionality
(Eg: Buildings in IT parks, Administrative campus) - Campuses with multiple buildings and different functionality
(Eg: Buildings in Educational campus) - Buildings in a campus owned by single owner
- Buildings in a campus owned by multiple owners
Certification Levels
The threshold criteria for certification levels are as under:
| Certification Level | New Campus | Existing Campus | Recognition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Certified | 40 - 49 | 36 - 44 | Best Practices |
| Silver | 50 - 59 | 45 - 53 | Outstanding Performance |
| Gold | 60 - 74 | 54 - 66 | National Excellence |
| Platinum | 75 - 89 | 67 - 90 | Global Leadership |
IGBC will recognize Green Campuses that achieve one of the rating levels with a formal letter of certification and a mountable plaque.
