This move is part of its broader green initiative spearheaded by the newly formed Green India Council, introduced during the recent CREDAI Governing Council meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CREDAI-owned certification system aims to serve as a cost-effective alternative to established certifications, such as IGBC, GRIHA, and LEED, specifically targeting developers in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, who often face affordability challenges. The certification will be aligned with national environmental priorities, focusing on energy efficiency and sustainability. CREDAI is currently in talks with the government to formalize and approve this framework for nationwide implementation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Our green certification will be cost-effective, aligned with national environmental priorities, and will incentivize developers to construct energy-efficient, sustainable projects,&#8221; said <\/span><b>Shekhar Patel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, President, CREDAI National.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Strategic Partnership with Adani Cement<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CREDAI also announced a strategic partnership with Adani Cement to promote sustainable and high-quality construction practices. As part of the collaboration, Adani Cement will supply GRIHA-certified green construction materials, including advanced additives and green concrete solutions. The company will also offer on-site technical support and knowledge-sharing programs to enhance construction expertise across CREDAI&#8217;s 13,000+ member base.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;This collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of building a greener, smarter urban future,&#8221; said Vinod Bahety, CEO &#8211; Cement Business, Adani Group.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Launch of Skilling Council for Future-Ready Workforce<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alongside the Green India Council, CREDAI has also launched a Skilling Council, designed to train a new generation of environmentally conscious and technically equipped construction professionals. The first phase, starting in July 2025, aims to train 15,000 workers across 25 cities, beginning with 16 key urban hubs, including Pune, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Gurugram.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Large-Scale Reforestation in Maharashtra<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a landmark environmental initiative, the Green India Council will also undertake reforestation of 9,000 acres in Nashik district, Maharashtra. The goal is to plant over 10 lakh trees using scientific and community-driven methods, contributing to climate resilience and the restoration of degraded land.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a major push toward sustainability and workforce development in the Indian real estate sector, the Confederation of Real Estate Developers&#8217; Associations of India (CREDAI) has announced the launch of its own green building certification system.
