Globally, the energy related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions can be reduced by70% by 2050 with a net positive economic outlook, says a joint study conducted by IRENA and IEA in 2017. When purchased together, EE and RE result in higher shares of renewable energy, a faster reduction in energy intensity, and a lower cost for the energy system. The integration of renewable energy in building has a high potential to complement the efficient design of high-performance new buildings.

Internationally buildings are being designed with a low energy demand, which is met by renewable energy sources.Distribution of load with the use of renewables or achieving the status like net zero or zero energy buildings presents unique challenges as well as opportunities for improving the efficiency of buildings in India.

The session will demonstrate that the greater use of renewable energy reduces the demand for energy, and greater energy efficiency results in higher shares of renewable energy and also focus on identification of the potential of measures to increase both the share of renewable energy and the level of energy efficiency improvement.
