As green living gains momentum, here's a list of benefits of living in platinum-rated green homes

India's real estate sector is going through a paradigm shift towards green living while the rest of the world struggles with the urgent problems of climate change and environmental sustainability. Property developers are using eco-friendly building techniques more frequently since they have a number of advantages for both homeowners and the environment.

These sustainable dwellings incorporate the latest technologies and design features to reduce their carbon footprint and promote a healthier, more eco-conscious way of life. The Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) rating system encompasses various green characteristics, including site preservation and restoration, efficient water and energy usage, responsible resource management, and innovative design processes. Buildings must meet rigorous threshold criteria to earn certification or pre-certification. 

Here's a list of benefits of living in platinum rated green home

Conservation of Water: The implementation of energy-saving measures ensures the conservation and reuse of up to 50 per cent of water through methods such as rainwater collection and advanced irrigation system management.

According to Yukti Nagpal, Director, Gulshan Group, conservation of water and energy promotes a more eco-conscious lifestyle and reduces the demand for natural resources. According to Nagpal, Gulshan Dynasty - located in Sector 144, Noida, has achieved the distinction of being Noida’s First Platinum Rated Green Home.
