With the projected energy demand, thermal energy is not likely to be a solution and renewable energy can only meet the part of energy requirement. CPWD ensured griha compliance in all future govt. buildings. MNRE (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy) in association with TERI (The Energy and Resources Institute) founded ADaRSH (Association for Development and Research of Sustainable Habitats). It is an independent society for the interaction on scientific and administrative issues related to sustainable habitats in India, founded jointly by Government of India with experts in the domain of sustainability of built environment . ADaRSH promotes GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment) as a design and evaluation tool for green buildings and habitats. IGBC formed LEED rating system to promote the concept of green building.
