Project information

Plot A of a three-plot development by Ecostar Goel Properties at Kiwale, on the north-western edge of Pimpri-Chinchwad, with 38,432 sq m of construction on an 8,400 sq m plot. A basement, a ground floor and four podium levels hold the parking, with a landscaped podium on top. Above it, building A rises 31 floors with 179 flats - two-bedroom homes of about 700 sq ft carpet and 2.5-bedroom homes of about 826 sq ft - and building B rises 30 floors with 173 two-, 2.5- and three-bedroom flats of about 712 to 956 sq ft, each tower with three lifts, refuge floors and a fire tank floor. A commercial block of ground and first floors with mezzanines and two more floors adds about 12,700 sq ft of carpet area. 352 homes in two 30-floor towers make a heavy load on power, water and fire services, and the environmental clearance has to show each one. The architecture is the architect's; our scope is the EC data and the MEPF design.

How We Helped Plot A, S. No. 79, Kiwale

We prepared the water demand, the energy calculations and the external MEP services location layout in February 2026, revising the water demand to R3 as the commercial population, the sewage plant and the approved layout changed, with the water supply and drainage NOC letters; the external plumbing layouts for the clearance from February to R3 on 26 March; and in March the EV charging, lightning arrester and solar layouts, the basement ventilation and dewatering, and the energy sheet to R3 with the ECBC parameters - the full MEP submission on 27 March 2026. Water: 2,108 people - 1,760 in the homes and 348 in the commercial block - need about 257 kL a day: 167.1 kL of domestic water, 86.2 kL of flushing water and 4.1 kL for the landscape. A 240 KLD sewage plant treats the 228 kL of sewage and sends the treated water back to the flushing and the landscape. Storage: a 405 kL domestic and flushing tank and a 150 kL fire tank below ground for the towers, a 27 kL tank for the commercial block, and a 100 kL fire tank on each tower's terrace, with 100 HP hydrant and sprinkler pumps and a 10 HP jockey pump. Power: 3,343 kW connected and 1,756 kW of maximum demand, on three 630 kVA transformers, with a 500 kVA DG set sized to start the two fire pumps; EV charging for 30% of the cars - 155 points of 7.2 kW - is a third of the connected load. Energy: 182 rooftop solar panels of 675 W - about 123 kW, 7% of the demand, generating about 184 MWh a year - solar collectors for 26,400 litres of hot water a day, 75 for each flat, and timers and drives on the lighting, lifts and pumps. Basement: the 4,225 sq m level, 3.3 m high, gets 49,125 CFM at 6 air changes an hour and 98,250 CFM in a fire, with 15 jet fans and 9 sensors; two sumps of 9 cubic metres, one for each fire zone, take the sprinkler water. Rainwater: eight recharge pits of 2.5 x 2.5 x 2 m with filters.

The brief

What the project needed, and how we answered

  1. 01

    Two towers of more than 30 floors.

    A 100 kL fire tank on each tower's terrace backs up a 150 kL tank below ground, with 100 HP hydrant and sprinkler pumps, and a 500 kVA DG set sized to start both fire pumps.

  2. 02

    Charging for 30% of the cars.

    155 car points of 7.2 kW add 1,117 kW to the connected load - a third of it - so they were part of the load and the parking layout from the start.

  3. 03

    Water for 2,108 people.

    About 257 kL a day: a 405 kL domestic and flushing tank below ground, a 240 KLD sewage plant, and treated water piped back to every flush and the landscape.
