RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY
School of Architecture and Planning, Anna University Campus, Chennai
The world has reached peak conventional oil and gas, meaning oil and gas companies are digging deeper and deeper into unconventional sources, with disastrous environmental and social consequences.
Minimizing climate change impacts will require substantial cuts in global emissions - as quickly as possible.
Coal is still relatively readily available, but catastrophic in terms of climate changing emissions. The world can no longer afford to hang on to its old energy paradigm, and its dangerous dependence on fossil fuels.
The pressure on the earths nonrenewable resources can be alleviated by judicious use of earths renewable resources.

Before considering the use of renewable energy, one should examine how buildings energy demand can be reduced through clever and often innovative design techniques.
This includes passive building design techniques.(many of which add little or no additional cost to buildings and are therefore of particularly high value to clients) review heating and electrical supply options.(including the use of renewable energy)
This provides clients with the options available and assists in selecting the most appropriate energy source for their development.
Actively encourage clients to procure low energy buildings and to include renewable systems as a part of a detailed and integrated low energy strategy.

Policies and programs promoting energy efficiency & renewable energy Integration in Buildings in India.
The government through Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has incentives the use of renewable energy technologies (RETs) in buildings through Subsidies and other fiscal incentives such as tax holidays, accelerated depreciation rates etc.
MNRE has started a solar cities program to promote the use of solar energy. Energy Conservation Building Codes (ECBC) have also been developed to propagate the practice of designing energy efficient buildings.
Though these codes are voluntary till now, their implementation has provided a strong base for further energy efficiency measures in future.

Solar thermal panels
Solar hot water systems gather energy from solar radiation and turn it into heat that is then distributed in the form of hot air or water to where it is to be used or stored until needed.
An active solar water heater consists of a solar collector(s), a hot water storage tank(s), and a pump.

A solar collector consists of a translucent cover, an absorption plate and a heat transfer system, involving hot water pipes or hot air.
A good liquid solar collector should have a minimum life expectancy of 2030 years.
Most of the collectors built since about 1980 are manufactured with materials that should give a 3050 year lifespan with a small amount of periodic maintenance.
Good liquid collectors typically have copper water ways (piping and tubing), a tempered glass cover and an insulated metal enclosure.

WHY USE A SOLAR HOT WATER SYSTEM?
All Eco buildings should use solar energy to heat their water if possible.
This is because solar hot water systems (SHWS) are not only easy to build or buy and install but, above all, they use the free, clean energy of the sun.
HOW GREEN IS A SHWS?
The domestic sector is responsible for around 30 per cent of the carbon emissions of developed countries, mainly owing to the CO2 emitted as a by- product of power generation and fossil fuel burning. Of this 30 per cent, 25 per cent goes to heating water for use from the taps and to provide pre-heating for space heating systems. AD9022 ENERGY EFFICIENT ARCHITECTURE

PHOTOVOLTAICS
Photovoltaic cells convert sunlight directly into electrical energy.
The electricity they produce is DC (direct current) and can either be:
used directly as DC power; converted to AC (alternating current) power; or stored for later use. AD9022 ENERGY EFFICIENT ARCHITECTURE

The basic element of a photovoltaic system is the solar cell that is made of a semiconductor material, typically silicon.
There are no moving parts in a solar cell, its operation is environmentally benign and, if the device is correctly encapsulated against the environment, there is nothing that will wear out.

COST, SAVINGS AND EARNINGS
Maintenance checks are necessary every few years, and will generally cost around Rs.7000 to Rs. 14000 per year depending on turbine size.
A well-maintained turbine should last more than 20 years, but you may need to replace the inverter at some stage during this time, at a cost of ,Rs. 70,000 to Rs. 1,40,000 for a large system.
Savings:
Building-mounted turbines tend to produce less electricity per kW than pole- mounted ones.
A well-sited 6kW turbine can generate around 10,000kWh per year equivalent to around 5.2 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year generating income and savings.

BIOMASS
Biomass does not add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere as it absorbs the same amount of carbon in growing as it releases when consumed as a fuel.
Its advantage is that it can be used to generate electricity with the same equipment or power plants that are now burning fossil fuels.
Biomass is an important source of energy and the most important fuel worldwide after coal, oil and natural gas.
