INTRODUCTION
• Taipei 101 and formerly known as the
Taipei World Financial Centre – is a
landmark super tall skyscraper in Xinyi
District, Taipei, Republic of China.
• The building was officially classified as the
world's tallest in 2004, and remained such
until the opening of Burj Khalifa in Dubai in
2010.
• In 2011, the building was awarded the
LEED platinum certification, the highest
award according to the Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)
rating system, and became the tallest and
largest green building in the world.
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE
• Structure depicts a
bamboo stalk Youth
and Longevity
Everlasting Strength
• Pagoda Style
• Eight prominent
sections Chinese lucky
number “8” In China, 8
is a homonym for
prosperity Even
number = “rhythm and
symmetry” (Basement
and first 8 floors).

FEATURES AFFECTING SUSTAINABILITY
OF THE BUILDING
• DOUBLE PANNELED AND GLAZED CURTAIN WALL
• A SMART ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL
SYSTEM.
1. VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION
2. ENERGY EFFICIENT LUMINARIES and
LIGHTING CONTROLS
3. VAC SYSTEM
• GREEN ROOF
• RAIN WATER HARVESTING
 DOUBLE PANNELED AND GLAZED
CURTAIN WALL
• Double glazing.
• Adding layers means additional thickness and weight.
• Thinner krypton gas filled cavities, vacuum glazing units, closed cavity facades, and
heat reflecting films.
• Heat mirror films is a Solar Responsive Thermo chromic (SRT) adaptive glazing film
which uses the sun’s energy to cause the tinting of the window, naturally controlling
room temperatures.
• Air-conditioning system is almost always defined by the glazed area and while dark
tinted windows and reflective coatings are used to reduce the Solar Heat Gain
Coefficient (SHGC) of windows.
A SMART ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND
CONTROL SYSTEM.
VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION
• Elevator System
• Observation Elevators
- 2 single-deck, 1,600 kg (24 persons) per deck
- 2004 Guinness Record fastest elevators in the
world with aerodynamic, with aerodynamic
pressure controlled cabs, ascend at 1,010
m/min.
• Passenger Elevators
- 10 double-deck, 2,040 kg (31 persons) per
deck shuttle elevators serving the transfer floors
24 double-deck, 1,350 kg (20 persons) per deck,
for access within 6 sub-zones (4 in each sub-
zone)
- 3 single-deck (various capacities)
• Service Elevators
- 3 single-deck (2×2,040 kg, 1×4,800 kg)
• Car Park Elevators
- 6 single-deck, 1,600 kg to tower lobby
 VAC System
• The VAC system consists of the
chiller, the glycol chiller and the ice
storage tank.
• VAC System Operation
- The chiller produces chilled water
for night-time air conditioning.
- The glycol chiller precools the glycol
solution, which passes through the
ice storage tank, to supply daytime
air conditioning.
- Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes per
floor.
- Individual control provides ability to
vary temperature and wind speed.
- Separate 24-hour chilled water
supply for computer rooms provided
upon request.
ENERGY EFFICIENT LUMINARS & LIGHTING CONTROLS
LUMINORS
• A review of public lighting was undertaken and
resulted in the conversion to more energy efficient
luminaires and lighting controls. By utilizing Energy
Management and Control Systems (EMCS), building
managers are able to adjust operating
temperatures, modify chiller plant operating
schedules and modify chilled water distribution
according to actual tenant needs. These combined
efforts have helped to rank TAIPEI 101 in the top
30% of high-rise office buildings as benchmarked
by the U.S. ENERGY STAR database, to reduce
energy consumption by 33.41 million kWh per year
and to save more than US$2 million per year.
 RAIN WATER HARVESTING
• Rainwater system was set
to collect rainwater from
exposed terrace above 34th
floor into rainwater
collection pool on B5, after
filtering in sand filter tank;
such rainwater will be
stored in rainwater
reservoir and be pumped
to the parterre irrigation
system in each area.
WATER PIPING PLAN ON EACH FLOOR
 RAIN WATER STORAGE TANK
• Rain water
storage plan
at the
basement
level .
• It is located
on side of the
podium that
is the mall
sector.
RECYCLING OF
WATER
• Storage and
treatment of rain
water and waste
water .
• This process saves
the water needs
upto 20 to 30 perc.
need Per year
• The introduction of low-flow water fixtures
together with dedicated water
management systems effectively reduced
water usage without jeopardizing tenant
satisfaction.
• This design ideology helped TAIPEI 101 to
decrease potable water usage by at least
30% compared to average building
consumption, saving about 28,000,000
liters of potable water annually
 INCREASING GREENERY
AND LANDSCAPING
• Because of the limited space for landscaping on site, the team
felt it was important to implement sustainable landscaping
practices in the city in order to achieve the overall
sustainability goal of the project.
• As part of its building management initiatives, it adopted part
of the Zhong Qiang Park to restore and protect habitats that
allow native flora and fauna to flourish.
 CONCLUSION
• Energy and Atmosphere (EA)
-Over 30% better in energy
performance than average building
