Using Cool Roofs to Reduce Energy Use, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Urban Heat-island Effects: Findings from an India Experiment

Technical Report Akbari, Hashem ; Xu, Tengfang ; Taha, Haider ; ...

Cool roofs, cool pavements, and urban vegetation reduce energy use in buildings, lower local air pollutant concentrations, and decrease greenhouse gas emissions from urban areas. This report summarizes the results of a detailed monitoring project in India and related simulations of meteorology and air quality in three developing countries. The field results quantified direct energy savings from installation of cool roofs on individual commercial buildings. The measured annual energy savings potential from roof-whitening of previously black roofs ranged from 20-22 kWh/m2 of roof area, corresponding to an air-conditioning energy use reduction of 14-26% in commercial buildings. The study estimated thatmore »« less

Staying cool: The development of India's pioneering energy efficiency policy for chillers

Journal Article Mukherjee, P. K. ; Gibbs, Eric ; Walia, Archana ; ... - Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews. Energy and Environment

Abstract Chillers are the key energy‐consuming piece of equipment in most large space cooling systems. They can account for more than 40% of total energy consumption in any typical commercial building and in specific industrial building installations depending on the product and process. With climate change driving rapidly rising demand for commercial and industrial cooling, especially in emerging economies, energy efficiency policies for chillers are crucial to moderate future electricity demand and thereby minimize greenhouse gas emissions. However, most developing and emerging economies lack energy efficiency policies for this significant and growing cooling equipment sector. India recently announced new energymore »« less

Radiant cooling by metal roofs in developing countries

Book Givoni, B ; Gulich, M ; Gomez, C ; ...

In many developing countries corrugated metal roofs are very common. During the nights the roof cools down rather quickly, acting in effect as an effective nocturnal radiator located directly above the living space. However, during the daytime hours the indoor climate in buildings with such roofs is often uncomfortably hot. Installing operable hinged interior insulating plates under the roof can reduce greatly the daytime heating without interfering too much with the cooling effect of such roofs during the nights. A model of this system (a test cell) was built and tested at UCLA. The paper describes the details of themore »« less
