Energy Modeling Support

Project Information
• Client: Energent Solutions
• Offering: BIM Implementation
• Client Type: Architects / Engineers

Energent Solutions, working with DesignGroup, needed to produce a BIM-based energy model of existing office buildings in order to determine the impact of potential energy conservation measures (ECM). CASE provided project-specific training and best practice guidelines for creating purpose-built BIM models for energy modeling and analysis. This included level of detail definition, model translation and interoperability guidance, and quality assurance auditing. These efforts allowed the project team to simulate energy and fuel consumption of over 1 million square feet of office space and to determine the most effective ECMs for each building.
