Absolutely, whole building energy modeling and simulations are integral to the success of high-performance building design. They serve as essential tools in guiding projects towards achieving optimal specifications and designs that are not only cost-effective but also align with desired energy goals. Your in-house team of energy experts and analysts plays a vital role in this process by providing valuable assistance to projects. They analyze designs, review HVAC design approaches and configurations, evaluate energy efficiency strategies, and establish performance targets tailored to specific budgets. This collaborative effort ensures that projects can make informed decisions, prioritize energy efficiency, and ultimately create buildings that are both environmentally sustainable and economically viable.
