From Code to Compliance- Digitally, Nationally, Seamlessly. A unified e-Compliance backbone for Eco-Niwas Samhita 2024 — built for BEE, SDAs, ULBs, developers, and assessors.
The National ENS e-Compliance Platform delivers a Digital Faceless Compliance Framework — a single window, cloud-native system enabling planning-stage and occupancy-stage compliance certification, third-party assessor empanelment, and real-time impact dashboards on energy saved, CO₂ mitigated, and built-up area covered. Universal, scalable, transparent, and innovation-led anchoring India's residential sustainability ecosystem from policy to permit.
Residential Buildings Consume 75% of Building Sector Electricity. ENS 2024 Helps Change That.
India's residential electricity consumption has increased from 55 TWh to 260 TWh in just two decades and is projected to reach up to 940 TWh by 2032. ENS 2024 introduces practical building envelope standards that help reduce cooling demand, improve thermal comfort, and curb rising energy consumption without requiring complex simulation software.
UP NEDA Energy-Efficient Building Showcase
The UP NEDA building demonstrates the integration of energy-efficient design, climate-responsive architecture, and sustainable construction practices. By incorporating ECBC-aligned building strategies, the project serves as a model for reducing energy consumption and advancing sustainable development in the built environment.
National Workshop on Energy-Efficient Retrofits & Sustainable Building Codes
Industry leaders, policymakers, and building professionals came together to discuss energy-efficient retrofitting strategies, sustainable building codes, and pathways to accelerate India's transition toward a greener and more energy-efficient built environment. Hosted in New Delhi under the leadership of the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Ministry of Power, Government of India.
TGREDCO Net Zero Energy Building: Leading by Example
The TGREDCO Net Zero Energy Building showcases how energy-efficient design, renewable energy integration, and sustainable construction can transform public infrastructure. Designed to meet Super ECBC standards and achieve net-zero energy performance, the project demonstrates India's commitment to climate-responsive and energy-efficient buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Eco Niwas Samhita (ENS)?
Eco Niwas Samhita (ENS) is India's Energy Conservation Building Code for Residential Buildings. It was developed by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) under the Ministry of Power to promote energy efficiency in the residential sector through improved building design.
Who needs to comply with ENS 2024?
All new residential buildings with a connected load of 20 kW or more, or a contract demand of 20 kVA or more in States/UTs where the code has been adopted, need to comply with ENS 2024 requirements.
What are the benefits of ENS compliance?
ENS compliance offers multiple benefits including reduced energy consumption, lower electricity bills, improved indoor comfort, reduced carbon footprint, and contribution to national energy conservation goals. Buildings also gain recognition for sustainable practices.
How do I get my building certified under ENS?
To get certified, you need to engage a BEE-empanelled auditor who will assess your building's compliance with ENS requirements. The auditor will submit the necessary documentation to the State Designated Agency (SDA) for verification and certificate issuance.
What climate zones are covered under ENS 2024?
ENS 2024 covers all five climate zones of India: Hot-Dry, Warm-Humid, Composite, Temperate, and Cold. The code provides specific requirements tailored to each climate zone to ensure optimal energy performance.
Is ENS 2024 mandatory across India?
ENS 2024 becomes mandatory in states and union territories only after they have formally notified and adopted the code. Currently, several states have adopted the code, and more are in the process of notification.
