Energy modeling

Benefit from free home energy modeling:

Residential homeowners can benefit from energy modeling through the following government programs :  Renoclimat  and  Green Home .

What is energy modeling?

Expertbâtiment offers the energy modelling service on its own or as part of a larger project. an energy audit . Building energy modeling is used to calculate energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as to identify areas of energy loss and simulate possible energy performance after targeted improvements.

How is energy modeling carried out?

Supported by software such as eQuest, HOT2000, SIMEB, OpenStudio and RETScreen, modeling is made possible by advanced algorithms for simulating building operation under a variety of conditions, as well as by accurate data collection. The models incorporate this detailed information on building design, materials used, HVAC systems and usage patterns. This data is then combined with environmental parameters such as weather and geographical location to obtain an accurate representation of the building’s energy behavior.

What’s the point of energy modeling?

Energy modeling can be used to explore different optimization strategies. For example, by adjusting design parameters, improving insulation, optimizing HVAC systems or integrating renewable energy sources. Experts can then assess the impact of these modifications on the building’s overall energy performance. This approach is useful not only for new buildings, but also for the energy renovation of existing structures. By modeling potential improvements, owners can make informed decisions about investments to reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions.
