Delhi and Mumbai International Airports were adjudged the smartest buildings in India at the first Honeywell Smart Building Awards 2015 held last week in New Delhi. Eight other buildings in New Delhi, Mohali, Mumbai, Kolkata, Gurgaon, and Bangalore were named the smartest buildings in their market segments, which included hospitals, schools, hotels, retail, commercial multi-tenant offices, single-tenant offices, residential facilities and public sector buildings. In the Smart Hotel category, ITC Sonar Kolkata bagged the award.
The Smart Building Awards were organized by Honeywell , a global leader in smart building technologies, and Times of India.
Participation in the competition was open to all building owners and facility managers who agreed to be evaluated under the parameters of the Honeywell Smart Building Score, an online tool launched by Honeywell earlier this year that evaluates buildings and technologies across three key measures of smartness – green, safe, and productive. Winners’ scores ranged from 81 to 99 on the 100-point smart building score. The scores were then validated by KPMG and affirmed by an eminent jury composed of India’s leading authorities on energy efficiency, safety, security, and productivity in buildings.
The Delhi airport scored highest in power consumption control, use of natural resources, worker safety, personal protection, and indoor environment quality and control. The Mumbai airport is the highest scorer in use of energy-efficient appliances and fixtures, uninterrupted power supply, fire detection and notification, as well as surveillance and intrusion.
