Green Building Certification consultants in Chennai.

Chennai's advisory ground falls into three belts that barely touch. West of the city, along the Bengaluru highway, the SIPCOT estates at Sriperumbudur, Irungattukottai and Oragadam hold vehicle plants, tyre makers and the phone and electronics assemblers that grew up around them. South, the IT Expressway on Rajiv Gandhi Salai, the OMR: carries office parks from Taramani to Siruseri. North, Manali and Ennore hold a refinery, fertiliser works, petrochemical units, power stations and two ports. Each belt answers to TNPCB, and each is questioned differently by the people it sells to.

Chennai buildings fight humidity more than heat alone. The air stays moist through most of the year, so cooling here is as much about wringing water from the air as lowering its temperature: and the energy model has to show that load honestly. Office towers at Taramani, Perungudi and Guindy are rated to IGBC or LEED largely at the tenant's request. Housing in Pallavaram, Porur and along GST Road gains from shaded façades, sea breezes let through the plan, and treated water sent back to flushing. The site's flood level belongs in the brief from the first drawing. The team travels from its base in Navi Mumbai and stays named on the work, start to finish, not passed down a chain.
