A building is not just a set of isolated systems. They are in permanent relationship and knowing the influence on occupant comfort and global energy consumption is an increasingly urgent need. Being able to simulate the behavior of buildings in early stages of design allows to reduce operating costs throughout its useful life and also in the initial cost of the equipment.

What is Building Energy Modeling?

It lies in the ability to select, use, calibrate and interpret the results of energy modeling to optimize the energy performance of the building and its systems.

​

What can energy simulation do?

• Facilitate the exploration of sustainable design options according to the buildings climate zone.  

• Evaluate the effectiveness and economic convenience of different sustainability measures in a simple way or in a combination of them. 

• Performance verification required by regulations (ex. ASHRAE 90.1)

​

Where can it be applied?​

• Modeling of new and existing buildings and systems.

• Exploitation of natural light.

• Air conditioning.

• Building envelope and materiality.
