Posted by: admin : Category: Current affairs
The green building code, termed energy conservation building code (ECBC), is likely to be mandatory for commercial buildings coming up in eight fast growing states in the next two years.
“In the eight major states where commercial buildings are being built — Delhi, Haryana, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh — our goal is to have the law on their books within two years,” said Ajay Mathur, Director General of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE).
