CII-Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre
|
The iconic CII - Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre was the first LEED Platinum New Construction v2 certified project outside the United States in 2003. This project catalyzed the green building movement in India. Recently, the building underwent an ambitious retrofit targeting the net-zero energy goal. It now features a 150 kW bifacial solar PV plant, an upgraded BMS and a highly-efficient chiller. The retrofitted GBC demonstrates and showcases the viability of establishing net-zero energy buildings. Learn more
