1 Thermal Insulation for Energy Efficiency in Buildings in India
2 Insulation Benefits Stop heat / cold ingress from outside Saves on fossil fuel Reduces emission of GHG. Lower energy losses; avoid the danger of oversized heating or cooling systems that works hard to compensate for the heat or cold losses through the building envelope. Effective insulation lowers heating or cooling bills, thus no longer being affected by rising energy costs Maintains controlled temp. for longer periods. Human Comfort improves the efficiency of occupier/user. Provides fungus-free and microbe-free healthier environ, due to absence of cold walls Environmental Economical Social
3 Impact of Insulation: Composite Climate (New Delhi) Summer: Heat in-flow (May) Business-as-usual construction Roof U-value: 4.2 W/m 2.K Wall U-value: 2.1 W/m 2.K Roof: 24.6 kwh/m 2 ECBC compliant roof & wall Roof U-value: W/m 2.K Wall U-value: 0.44 W/m 2.K Roof: 2.1 kwh/m 2 Wall: 8.1 kwh/m 2 Wall: 2.3 kwh/m 2 Source: BEEP analysis Reduction in heat in-flow through roof 90% Reduction in heat in-flow through walls 70%
4 Efficient Insulation Products Fibrous /Mineral Insulation Materials : Rock wool Glass wool Slag wool Rigid Insulations Extruded Polystyrene Foam Polyurethane Foam Polyisocyanurate Foam Expanded Polystyrene Foam PU/PIR XPS EPS
