Review On Proposing Transformation Of Existing Building Into Net-Zero Energy Building

In India, buildings currently utilize 35% of all energy, and this percentage is escalating at an average rate of 8% each year. In order to stop the current trend of unsustainable escalating energy demand, India must implement energy-efficiency programs directed at the residential sector, as the country's energy consumption for residential development is predicted to increase by more than eight-fold by 2050. One solution to this problem is to make existing structures net-zero energy buildings. This study will explore methods for lowering energy consumption and building net zero energy structures. The IGBC Net Zero Energy Building Rating System serves as the foundation for the study's parameters. The investigation will focus on residential building in the Kolhapur region. The study's objectives include evaluating existing structures for net-zero energy consumption and making suggestions for energy-saving measures. The cost of the dwellings increases by 5 to 10% compared to the cost of a standard residential structure, according to an energy comparison analysis and cost analysis of three buildings. The NZE building is more costly, but it will pay off in the long run. To achieve net-zero energy goals in the future, similar structures can use the techniques and data used in this work
