Energy loss in any industrial process or building is inevitable; it is a foregone conclusion. However, its economic and environmental impacts are not to be taken lightly, thus explaining the growing need for energy efficiency. Put simply, the level of energy efficiency a plant or building can achieve is inversely proportionate to the energy loss that occurs; the higher the loss, the lower the efficiency. GE3S Energy Auditors identify opportunities to reduce the energy use of a building or industries. LEED GA and LEED AP professionals are well versed with energy optimization strategies in buildings. Energy Audit is a regular examination of an energy system to ensure that energy is being used as efficient as possible.

Why do we need GRIHA rating system in India? The agenda of GRIHA is like this. Any building is going to consume lots of resources in the form of energy, water, materials, and even human resource. Professionals who are LEED Green Associate tend to optimize resource consumption during design construction and operation of the buildings. Normally we do not include human resources because it also means a way of making people get some kind of narration or livelihood. So human resource is normally not considered. But when we consider the consumption of resources like energy, water, or material. we have to be very prudent considering that these three things can global warmings. Also, we emit waste directly in the form of municipal solid waste or liquid waste as well as the emission of green gases. So the agenda of GRIHA is to reduce or minimize building resource consumption minimize waste generation and overall ecological impact to within nationally acceptable limits or benchmark. The pri...
