Section A (Reading)
A. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions :
Designing sustainable buildings in a composite climate is a challenge. The techniques that are effective during summers do not work in winters. But a building in Chandigarh has achieved this. More than ten years ago, the Punjab Energy Development Agency (PEDA) decided to construct an office building that utilizes the movement of the sun for lighting, cooling and heating.
The Rs.5.5 crore building, a pilot, was ready in 2004. Six years later, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) awarded it a five-star rating, the highest grade of energy efficiency. With a built-up area of 6,146 sq.m., the building incorporates the techniques of passive solar architecture that is based on seasonal and diurnal variations in the sun’s movement.Monuments like the Red Fort in Delhi were designed using these techniques. The PEDA office has an Energy Performance Index (EPI) of 14 KWh / sq.m./ year in the category of non-airconditioned buildings. EPI is the ratio of the total energy used to the total built-up area. The EPI of commercial buildings is above 180 KWh/sq.m./year and the benchmark set by BEE for buildings’ complaint with the union power ministry’s energy conservation building Code (2007) is 140 KWh/sqm./year. By following passive solar techniques, the PEDA office has become one of the most energy-efficient buildings without adhering to the code, which came later, says Harsimran Singh, an architect in Chandigarh. According to the PEDA building’s architect, Arvind Drishan unlike conventional buildings the office design is in accordance with the external envelope, which he calls solar envelope. This envelope refers to the features and materials used in the building’s skin that makes it responsive to varying weather conditions. The internal structure has floating slabs which help in air circulation. The building is oriented in the north-south direction, minimizing solar exposure on the western and eastern facades. Although a building’s southern facade can be shaded, the western façade remains exposed to the setting sun and cannot be shaded, he explains.

a. Why is designing sustainable buildings in composite climate a challenge?
b. What do BEE and EPI stand for?
