Evaluation of Embodied Energy for Building Construction under Urban Renewal Schemes in Core City Area - A Case of Rasta Peth, Pune
Abstrak
Building construction accounted for more than 40% of global energy consumption and 30% of greenhouse gas emissions. It is essential to understand embodied carbon in buildings at the neighbourhood level, as after construction, it will be locked there for several years. This study aims to analyze the embodied energy (EE) of the neighbourhood for redevelopment scenarios using (UBEM). The study area chosen was Rasta Peth, Pune. The primary sources of embodied energy were discovered by analyzing existing dense neighbourhoods. Massing cases for redevelopment scenarios were created according to UDCPR guidelines. A comparative analysis of EE between the redeveloped 2030 scenarios was conducted. The research results show that the low carbon 2030 scenario has 27.9% lower EE than the conventional scenario. The findings emphasized the importance of embodied energy in sustainability strategies for urban planners and policymakers. This research contributed valuable insights for reducing embodied energy in urban areas.
