ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
We take a holistic view of our real estate business
to reduce our environmental footprint. We
ensure that our IT parks are energy efficient, and
minimise the environmental impact through the
entire real estate life cycle, starting from design
to building maintenance and operations. Life
cycle analysis conducted from the design stage
enables us to seek innovative ideas in designing
sustainable and value-adding buildings.
We target to achieve U.S. Green Building
Council (“USGBC”) Leadership in Energy &
Environmental Design (“LEED”) or Indian Green
Building Council (“IGBC”) Gold certification
for all of our new buildings. LEED is a green
building certification program that recognises
best-in-class building strategies and practices.
To receive the LEED certification, building
projects satisfy prerequisites and earn points
to achieve different level of certifications.
In FY15/16, we are pleased to announce that
The V in Hyderabad has been awarded the
Platinum rating by IGBC and became the first
IGBC Platinum rated IT Park in India. In addition,
six of our buildings in ITPB have been awarded
the USGBC LEED or IGBC Gold Certification.
We are actively pursuing renewable sources of
energy for all our properties to conserve natural
resources. In ITPB, food waste is being converted
through organic waste converter into compost and
used for gardening. Where possible, we source
for green building materials and technologies
to reduce the impact of our construction and
operational activities on the environment. We also
consistently apply green technology and sustainable
practices across all of our properties and offices.
