Definition of Zero Emissions

Emissions that pass the defined
system boundary in a Zero Emissions
system must neither interfere with
ecological nor social requirements.
The defined system boundaries can
enclose a single company, a cluster of
companies or a region.
Zero Emission looks at problems from
a holistic point of view

 Zero Emissions is no Stand-alone

Method
Instead it uses different existing
methods (CP, Eco-Efficiency, IBS,
Upsizing,) and combines their
strenghts

ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

REASONS FOR CONCERN

1. Standards of energy efficiency in
almost all part of the world is
extremely low.
2. Most of the countries are heavily
dependent on imported oil, a finite
resource that is likely to be
increasingly expensive in future;
consumption also has significant
environmental costs.
3. Many of the developing countries
Zero Emissions Leading to sustainable Devolpment
have
serious

Buildings are the Largest Energy Consumer

Zero Emissions Leading to sustainable Devolpment

What is a Zero Energy Building?

1. A net zero energy building can be
defined as a building which generates
as much energy through renewable
sources as much as it consumes from
the Grid.
2. During the last 20 yearsmore than
200 reputable projects claiming net
zero energy balance have been
realized all over the world which

Various forms of renewable

energy
Solar Energy
The photovoltaics convert the
light energy directly into
electric energy by
photoelectric effect at the
atomic level.

The solar thermal collectors

chosen for this job are flat
plate collectors with an
efficiency factor of 0.8 and a
linear heat loss coefficient
factor of 3.5.

Zero Emissions Leading to sustainable Devolpment

Wind Energy
The total kinetic energy
available from wind
world-wide is more than
80 times the energy that is
being consumed now.
The wind turbine costs
are approximately the
same as coal-, natural
gas-, and nuclear-based
electricity.

Zero Emissions Leading to sustainable Devolpment

Geothermal
Energy

The temperature of earth varies

proportionally with depth. We
can utilize this temperature to
produce limitless energy.
One percent of the heat
contained in just the uppermost
10 kilometers of the earths
crust is equivalent to 500 times
the energy contained in all of
the earth's oil and gas
resources.
Zero Emissions Leading to sustainable Devolpment

Biogas
It is the most
suitable energy
resource as per
environmental
concern.
Suitable for rural
areas where plenty of
organic and inorganic
wastes are available,
no proper discharging
channel is not
available.

shows that wind energy is
most economical amongst
all renewable resources
mentioned in the graph.

Conclusion
Solar and Wind energy will be the major contributor of
renewable energy for ZEBs owing to their widespread
availability.
Biogas can also be used for our energy needs but its only
constraint is that it needs huge quantity of waste and it is also
not feasible everywhere.
Geothermal energy is an upcoming form of energy having
great potential to generate electricity but a lot of research still
has to be done to tap into its full potential.
