RENEWCONNECT - All about renewables & power sector

In the present day, every individual should be aware of the current policies and regulations present in the country. This will help in making them understand how it can be implemented and adopt to their daily living and residence, etc.  1. Green Homes and Sustainability Context Residential homes account for around 17-18% of power consumption from the grid. This can vary depending on the country, but the core usage of electricity, water, and resources remains fairly constant globally. With rising concerns over climate change, international and local policies target energy efficiency and carbon footprint reduction, such as: Net Zero Policies : Homes aim to produce as much energy as they consume. Energy Conservation Building Codes (ECBC) : Regulatory standards for energy efficiency in buildings. Carbon Credits and Trading : Residents and developers can earn credits for reducing carbon emissions, which can be traded in markets to monetize sustainability efforts. 2. Types of Green Homes...
