Four ways in

We don't build buildings. We model how they perform.

Energy Consultant

A modelled energy report for a specific address, with the assumptions and the sources on the page.

Multiplex All-in-One Solution

Envelope, mechanical and controls work for plexes, sourced in one place instead of five.

Building Simulator

EnergyPlus and OpenStudio behind a form: hourly simulation without the modelling seat.

Design Toolkit

Sizing tools that answer one question at a time. Electrical panel capacity today, heat pumps next.

For building owners

Describe it once. See what to fix, and what pays back.

For architects and modelers

Drag the line, and watch a drawing become a model.

On one side, the plan as it was drawn. On the other, the same geometry standing up as something a solver can run. You decide where the line falls.

ModelDrawing

Ready

Drag the line.

Move slowly and it names each EnergyPlus object as it makes it.

The EnergyPlus file you take away

Every line is a real object in the model. Export it, open it, check it.

Design Toolkit

Four instruments,one case.

Open the load and panel hub

01
Electrical Panel Load
Does the existing panel have room, and what does an upgrade cost? Sized from heat pumps, appliances and connected loads.
CEC 8-200 · 8-202
Open
02
Heat Pump Load
Heating and cooling loads for the building, to select the right capacity rather than the safe oversize.
In development
03
Wall Assembly Cut
Compare assemblies against each other on thermal performance, cost and code compliance.
In development
04
Whole-Building Load
Building-wide heating and cooling loads, to inform mechanical system sizing at design stage.
In development
