Workshop on Launch of ECBC Implementation Resources – “ECBC Conformance Check Tool - ECOnirman and ECBC Professional Training Modules” (10 December 2024), New Delhi

Location: New Delhi
Date: 2024-12-10
Description: The Government of India under the provision of the Energy Conservation Act, 2001 launched Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) in May 2007 for its voluntary adoption in the country. Since then Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) has been promoting the implementation of ECBC through several capacity building programs. USAID supported ECO-III Project has been working closely with BEE in these initiatives, and has developed ECBC User Guide and ECBC Tip Sheets for raising awareness among stakeholders on ECBC. During these capacity building efforts, a strong need has been felt to assist architects and engineers at the design stage so that they are able to assess the performance of their proposed buildings with respect to ECBC and accordingly facilitate design improvements. With this objective, ECO-III Project in consultation with BEE, has conceived the development of ECOnirman, an online ECBC Conformance Check Tool.
ECOnirman has been designed for assessing the conformance of commercial buildings, which fall under the purview of ECBC. It covers all commercial buildings having an electrical connected load of more than 100 kW or contract demand of 120 kVA (the amended threshold values for ECBC compliance).
