Clever buildings | ||
Green building is comparatively new conception, but quite modern. In its fundamentals lies the idea of decreasing the risks for the environment and solving the ecological problems. Energy efficiency and safety of the buildings is a target for all the countries in the world but mostly for the developed countries from the European Union, USA, China, countries from the Middle East. Incontestable is the fact that building green is a bit more expensive, but the truth is that the expenses are only 5 % extra which subsequently indemnifies for the higher price. The constructing of these building uses a lot less energy and water. According to recent research by scholars, people who work in this type of buildings are in better health, which in turn increases their productivity and thereby reduces losses to the employer. The secret of this lies in the building design, which provides maximum access to sunlight for a long time, and the artificial light is produced by solar, which, as we know, is vital for all organisms. That is how is used the passive solar design- the windows are placed to ensure constant sunlight, and achieve the desired temperature all year round without electricity. Also, green buildings can produce their own electricity through alternative technologies, which in future reduces costs. Green building is very effective in preserving the most important but also the most scanty resource on the Earth- the water. You can install systems for recycling the gray water- from kitchen, bathroom, sink, dishwasher, and black water- from toilets. And for people who currently can not afford to build an intelligent home remains a smart option for limiting at least the cost of electricity- through solar panels, solar shingles and more. It is true that investing in green energy and construction of a smart building cost a bit more than standard construction. But the effect is striking and the electricity bills are reduced 50-60%, the health of the people improves. Some of the most famous green buildings in the world: "Taipei 101" - Finished in 2004 and is the second highest in the world. Apart from its impressive size, it possesses exceptional energy efficiency. 'Jumeirah Gardens' – Or the city of the future. The project is expected to be completed in 2013 and will be built by all the rules of modern eco-architecture. The investment is expected to hit 95 billions dollars. Masdar city in Abu Dhabi- This is going to be the greenest city on the Earth so far. It claims to have zero carbon emissions; the specific architecture will reduce the temperature.
