Dublin, April 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Technology Advances Enabling Sustainability in Building and Construction Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. This research service titled 'Technology Advances Enabling Sustainability in Building & Construction Industry' focuses on identifying and analysing technologies that can improve sustainability of the building and construction industry. The research also evaluates the impact of these technologies on the SDGs. The increasing industrialization and urbanization activities will further increase the global energy consumption and the subsequent carbon emissions thereby increasing the negative impacts of the building & construction industry on the environment. The improper disposal of hazardous and demolition waste into the environment in the construction industry also has a negative impact on the health of people living in the surrounding areas. These negative impact, therefore, presents a compelling case to adopt sustainable construction techniques, which will enable the reduction of carbon emissions and natural resource consumption, optimize water utilization, and minimize climate change consequences. I t is also necessary for the stakeholders involved to make use of innovative technologies to ensure enhanced material reuse and make use of energy-efficient technologies which also leads to achieving sustainability in the building & construction industry and will also help the stakeholders to cater to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this research, three key technology areas are of focus, namely: Reducing embodied carbon using sustainable building materials.Improving energy efficiency using Net Zero Energy Buildings andThe incorporation of biophillic designs The research highlights various factors that facilitate technology development and adoption such as: Global and regional trends and initiativesStakeholder efforts such as collaborations, partnerships, funding and investments etc.Technology developments & Noteworthy stakeholders andGrowth Opportunities for stakeholders working towards improving sustainability in the Building and Construction Industry Key Topics Covered: 1.0 Strategic Imperatives 2.0 Executive Summary 2.1 Research Scope2.2 Research Methodology2.3 Key Findings - Sustainability in Building & Construction 3.0 Overview of Sustainability in the Building & Construction Industry 3.1 Need for Sustainability in Buildings & Construction Sector3.2 Adverse Negative Impacts of Building & Construction Sector on the Environment3.3 Key Factors influencing the Adoption of Sustainable Technologies in the Building and Construction Industry3.4 Environment Impact Evaluation Along the Building & Construction Value Chain3.5 Sustainable Approaches to Improve Sustainability in Building & Construction Sector3.6 The Building & Construction Industry's Impact on SDGs3.7 Key Sustainability Trends Improving the Building & Construction Industry 4.0 Technologies Enabling Sustainability Trends 4.1 Sustainable Building Materials4.1.1 Reduction of Embodied Carbon in Conventional Construction Materials4.1.2 Impact of Sustainable Building Materials on Sustainable Development Goals4.1.3 Impact of Sustainable Building Materials on Reducing Carbon Emissions during Construction4.1.4 Growing Interest in Reducing Embodied Carbon of Concrete and Adopting Bio-based Materials4.2 Net-zero Energy Buildings4.2.1 Emission Reduction Mandates are the Major Factors Driving the Adoption of Renewable Energy4.2.2 Improving Energy Efficiency and Integrating Technologies Enable the Construction of Net-zero Energy Buildings4.2.3 Impact of Net-zero Energy Buildings on Sustainable Development Goals4.2.4 Net-zero Energy Buildings with a Combination of Energy Conservation and Energy Generation Strategies4.2.5 Noteworthy Global Green Building Projects in Australia & The Netherlands4.2.6 Noteworthy Global Geen Building Projects in Canada & Singapore4.3 Biomimicry & Biophilic Design4.3.1 Convergence of Architectural Design and Biological Sciences to Enhance Sustainability4.3.2 Impact of Biophillic Design on Sustainable Development Goals4.3.3 Nature-Inspired Innovations Paving Way for Biophilic Buildings for Improved Health and Well-being 5.0 Industry Initiatives 5.1 Regulatory Initiatives for Enhancing Energy Efficiencies and Reducing Carbon Emissions in the Construction Industry5.2 Collaborations & Partnerships to Enhance Sustainability in the Construction Industry5.3 Increased Government Funding Has Enhanced Decarbonization of the Construction Industry5.4 Transformational Changes to the Construction Industry Due to Global Outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic 6.0 Companies to Action 6.1 Cost-effective Manufacturing Processes for Producing Geopolymer Concrete6.2 Use of Proprietary Bacterial Strains for Producing Bio-cement6.3 Industrial Hemp-based Materials for Sustainable Construction Processes6.4 Use of Residual Straw Bales as an Eco-friendly Alternative to Nurture Resource Conservation6.5 Installation of Smart Devices to Enhance Sustainability in Buildings6.6 Electrochromic Smart Glass Reduces Energy Consumption and Promotes Well-being 7.0 Growth Opportunities 7.1 Growth Opportunity 1: Disruptive Technologies Enhancing Sustainability in the Construction Industry7.2 Green Insulation Technologies Enhance Energy Efficiency and Well-being While Reducing Use of Non-renewable Materials7.3 Growth Opportunity 2: Technology Convergence Enhancing Sustainability in the Construction Industry7.4 Integration of Cool Roofs and Photovoltaics Reduces Heating and Cooling Costs By as much as 60%7.5 Growth Opportunity 3: Technology Investments Enhance Sustainability in the Construction Industry7.6 Collaborative Investments to Commercialize Sustainable Concrete Production Result in Significant Reductions in Carbon Emissions 8.0 Key Contacts 9.0 Next Steps For more information about this report visit https://www.researchandmarkets.com/r/yr44ps CONTACT: CONTACT: ResearchAndMarkets.com Laura Wood, Senior Press Manager press@researchandmarkets.com For E.S.T Office Hours Call 1-917-300-0470 For U.S./CAN Toll Free Call 1-800-526-8630 For GMT Office Hours Call +353-1-416-8900
