Design and Development of Green Eco-House

Abstract

As humanity craves progression, there is an increase in the number of buildings being constructed on a global scale; this in turn leads to an increase in energy consumption to satisfy the development process which leads to more tons of greenhouse emissions can be released to accommodate the energy demand. Due to this there is increase in energy demand; the world has to face the fact that our resources will soon be depleted. This project aim is to construct a prototype of an eco-friendly house which is constructed and powered with minimal CO₂ emissions which replacing cement in construction. The main focus on reducing the production of CO₂ is by utilizing an innovative material known as geo-polymer cement and the usage of a solar panel to power the prototype fully using a clean and renewable energy source. This will in turn reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. Fly ash is created as a byproduct of the combustion of coal in power plants and it is usually disposed however it can be fully utilized by recycling it.
