Kalas , Pune FORM EVOLUTIONS VS DAYLIGHT ANALYSIS The scale of the space and the atmospheres created by a subtle differentiation in material sand Lighting make the atrium a natural gathering place. As a continuous surface this façade folds in to the roof to animate the Building not only acting as a window that unveils its daily activities to the out side but also framing the varying surroundings to the inside.

7. Kalas , Pune EXEMPLARY INNOVATION EXEMPLARY EVOLUTION BREEAM is not only energy neutral but also energy positive. The Edge uses 70% less electricity than comparable office buildings. The roof and the south-facing façade incorporate the largest array of photovoltaic panels of any Europe an office building.   An aquifer thermal energy storage system provides all of the energy required for heating and cooling. A heath-pump was applied to this storage system significantly increases efficiency. These and several other innovations have ensured that The Edges cored particularly well on innovation credits. Occupancy , movemen t , lighting levels, humidity and temperature are continuously measured and using mart technology –including Ethernet- powered LED connected lighting– the building systems respond to maximize efficiency. The real outcome of The Edge is not just the reduction in water and energy use of its own users but also the project’s role as a feasible high quality example of new technologies new ways of designing and news ways of working.

12. Kalas , Pune ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURES – FACADES Each façade is uniquely detailed according to its orientation and purpose: Loadbearing walls to the south east and west have smaller openings to provide thermal mass and shading and solid openable panels for ventilation L ouvers on the south facades are designed according to sun angles and provide additional shading for the office spaces reducing solar heat gain. Solar panels on the south façade provide enough sustainable electricity to power all smartphones, laptops and electric cars. The North facades are highly transparent and use thicker glass to dampen noise from the motorway.   The  atrium facade is totally transparent, allowing views out over the dyke , and steady north lighting.

13. Kalas , Pune HIGH INSULATION FROM A GLASS FAÇADE The building’s external glass façade measures 47 millimeters on average , which results in a sound proof value that is 5dB higher than is required by organization Bouwbesluit . The North façades are highly transparent but use a thicker glass to dampen noise from the motor way. The internal walls are designed to be sound proof as well.

14. Kalas , Pune FEATURES-SMART LIGHTNING The building’s Ethernet-powered LED lighting system called LOE ( Lightover Ethernet)is integrated with30,000 sensors to continuously measure occupancy, movement, lighting levels , humidity and temperature allowing it to automatically adjust energy use. The system also enables employees to use an application on their smartphone or table to regulate the climate and light over their individual work spaces. The Light over Ethernet (LOE) LED system is powered by Ethernet and 100% IP based. This makes the system fie each luminaire individually computer controllable, so that changes can be implemented quickly and easily without opening suspended celing .

15. Kalas , Pune FEATURES - PV PRODUCTION The Edge uses a total of more than 5,900 square metres of solar panels. The roofs over the building spaces are laid out in solar panels totaling over 4,100 square metres and of which are connected to the grid, Next to this, the south façade of The Edge contains 720 square metres of solar panels and the roof iscovered with an additional 1,086 square metres of solar panels. The Edge uses a total of more than 5,900 square metres of solar panels, The on-site production is provided by 720 square metres of solar panels on the south facade of the Edge and another 1,086 square metres on the roof. The solar panels that cover the roof provide electricity for the aquifer thermal energy storage which generates all energy required for heating and cooling the building. Solar panels on the south façade provide enough sustainable electricity to power all smartphone laptops and electric cars. The off-site production is provided by 4.100 sqaure metres of solar panels from the roofs over the University of Amsterdam.

16. NATURAL AND MECHANICAL VENTILATION The atrium acts as a buffer between the workspace and the external environment excess ventilation air from the offices is used again to air condition the atrium space. The air is then ventilated back out through the top of the atrum where it passes through a heat exchanger to make use of any warmth. The atrium and its iconic slanted roof, which looks from the outside as if a wedge has been sliced off the building. floods the workspaces with daylight and provides sound buffer from the adjacent highway and train tracks. Every workspace is within 7 meters (23 feet) of a window.

17. THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE An aquifer thermal energy storage system generates all energy required for heating and cooling the building. This system is equipped with a new evaporator unit with an innovative technology that has never been used before. In theory, this particular unit is 15% more efficient than the other units. Two 130 m deep wells reach down (one fr cold water and another for warm water) to an aquifer, allowing thermal energy differentials to be stored deep underground .

18. ENERGY CONSUMPTIONP- 7tal primary energy consumption: 67.6k kwh PE/m².year Fossil primary energy consumption: 56.7 kWh PE/m².year Renewable energy production (PV): 3 kWh PE/m² year The level of final energy consumption of the building will vary between -0.3 and 40.7 kWh/m² year depending on the availability of the renewable energy supply by the PV production. Estimated water consumption 4.1 m³/ person year (20% of grey water) ENERGY SYSTEM - Heating, Cooling and DHW system: A geothermal system based on aquifer thermal storage which pumps cold/warm water into/out of the building, depending on the indoor or outdoor climate.-The pumps and the evaporator unit can be powered by fossil or renewable electricity. Ventilation system: Natural ventilation (automatic openable window panels in the south façade) and mechanical ventilation (double flow heat exchanger). A rainwater harvest system can also cover the water needs in the DHW in the toilets .

19. RAIN WATER HARVESTING: Rain water is collected on the roof and used to flush toilets, and irrigate the green terracesin the atrium and other garden areas surrounding the building. ECOLOGICAL CORRIDOR: The building is located in a low environmental impact site. The greenspace that separates the building from the nearby motorway acts as an ecological corridorwhich allows animals and insects to safely cross the site. ACCESSIBILITY : - Safety for pedestrians and bicyles is considered inside the buiding. Public transport (train, tram, bus) isnearby. There is a charging point for electric cars, scooters and bicycles.
-The bicycle parking is large enough to provide parking space for bicycles of employees.
-Even before and after office hours the parking facility is publicly accessible, allowing people to park when visiting the neighboring hospital. SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS: -95% of the materials used have a responsible and demonstrable origin. All wood in The Edge

-FSC Forest Stewardship Council)-certified.

22. Conclusions: The Edge is not just a pretty face-a modern facade: it is designed to be as energy neutral and self-sustaining as possible Its Atrium in 15 floors high, making not only the work environment open and thus more inspiring,but also serving as a part of the ventilation system, ensuring that the used air from the offices gets sucked off at the top. The form and orientation of the building brings natural daylight to most of its workspaces. At the same time, the shade will fall on the sunny parts of the structure for natural cooling As for electricity, the whole southern gable is equipped with solar panels. Additionally another 4000+ square meters ofpanels have been placed on the roofs of neighbouring buildings of the University of Amsterdam and the Hogeschool of Amsterdam. But this is not all: an aquifer thermal energy storage, located about 130 meters underground, generatesall energyrequired for heating and cooling of the building. Rainwater is also collected and reused.
