What We Model
From VRF systems to geothermal and heat pumps, our experts provide accurate energy modeling across a broad range of mechanical systems to support high-performance building design.
High-efficiency HVAC systems that provide independent temperature control and reduced energy consumption.
Delivers conditioned outdoor air to improve indoor air quality while reducing HVAC energy loads.
Provides efficient heating and cooling by transferring heat instead of generating it, lowering overall energy use.
Utilizes the earth’s stable temperatures for highly efficient heating and cooling with long-term energy savings.
Distributes heat evenly through floors or slabs, improving occupant comfort and system efficiency.
Hydronic heating systems provide reliable, efficient space heating for a variety of building types.
Uses ambient air to cool water for building HVAC systems, offering a cost-effective cooling solution.
Our Process
Our process with no upfront retainer or payment.
Invoiced after delivery of your report.
We collect your building plans, mechanical designs, energy specifications, and project requirements to establish the foundation for the energy model.
Our engineers develop a detailed digital energy model using the building geometry, HVAC systems, lighting, and envelope characteristics to simulate real-world performance.
We run simulations using local climate data and building operating conditions to evaluate energy performance, identify savings opportunities, and compare design alternatives.
You’ll receive a comprehensive report with energy performance results, recommended improvements, and the documentation needed to support energy code compliance, certifications, or tax incentives.
Trusted by 10,000+ Real Estate Investors
Supporting clients through every step of their energy code compliance journey.

Energy modeling is the process of creating a digital simulation of a building’s energy performance. It evaluates how the building’s design, systems, and materials impact energy consumption, helping optimize efficiency and support code compliance.
Energy modeling is most effective during the design phase, allowing project teams to compare design options, improve building performance, and meet energy code or certification requirements before construction begins.
Typical inputs include architectural drawings, mechanical and electrical plans, building envelope details, lighting specifications, occupancy schedules, and local climate data. Our team will let you know exactly what documentation is needed for your project.
Yes. Energy modeling is often required to demonstrate compliance for programs such as the Section 179D Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction, as well as certifications like LEED, ENERGY STAR, and other local energy efficiency programs.
