Andhra Pradesh has registered 638 green building projects with the Indian Green Building Council, marking a significant push towards sustainable construction in the state.
The Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) has recorded 638 projects in Andhra Pradesh that meet its green building certification standards.
IGBC certification requires projects to achieve energy efficiency, water conservation, and sustainable material use, among other criteria.
The surge in green projects is expected to reduce carbon emissions, lower operating costs for developers, and create skilled jobs in the state.
State authorities say the trend aligns with national sustainability goals and will be supported by incentives and technical guidance.
