What is UNFCCC

In view of increasing energy demands and the pressing need for sustainable solutions, grid-interactive building infrastructure has emerged as a viable and efficient option to meet the energy needs of communities and buildings. The following introduction explores the concept of grid-interactive building infrastructure, with a focus on a specific case study in Kashinagar, Odisha, India. Currently, the electric needs of the undertaken site are met through the conventional power grid, resulting in significant operating costs amounting to $6,039 per year. A proposed system is being introduced to address this challenge, incorporating 496 kW and 36 kW of solar and wind energy generation capacity, respectively. By integrating renewable energy sources, this solution aims to reduce operating costs to a negative value of -$11,432 per year. In addition to the economic and environmental benefits, the studied grid-interactive building infrastructure suggests an independent and resilient energy system.
