The Green Bricks for Residential and Commercial Buildings Project supports the production of fly ash bricks and Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks in Madhya Pradesh, India. Fly ash bricks and AAC Blocks are high insulation value and low embodied energy bricks and blocks for residential and urban construction. The process to manufacture these concrete blocks and fly ash bricks uses renewable local biomass as a source of energy, uses less energy than the manufacture of conventional clay bricks, and results in a building product with an insulation value higher than conventional alternatives, which in turn can reduce the energy consumption of buildings over their lifespans.
