Suppose you meet with an architect and ask her to design a building. You tell her the design you'd like, the size, and where it will be located. You might also specify the level of energy efficiency ...

A new study has demonstrated a novel approach to integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) with Building Energy ...

Engineers know that energy modeling is a moving target. Trying to both design sustainable buildings and meet more-stringent government and client-imposed clean energy and carbon reduction goals has ...

Description: simulationHub has released Buildings AI, a cloud-based building energy modeling platform that combines the EnergyPlus engine with AI-driven automation. The software streamlines complex ...

The US has committed to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050. To accomplish this goal, large cuts in emissions are necessary, especially in high-emission sectors like the building industry. Researchers ...

A distinguished scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory who has led the creation of computer models of energy use in nearly every residential and commercial building in the United States will speak ...

With the development of software programs like DOE-2 and EnergyPlus, it's never been easier for Building Teams to evaluate potential energy saving measures for a building project. However, preparing ...

Researchers used the City of Pittsburgh to create a model built upon the design, materials and purpose of commercial buildings to estimate their energy usage and emissions. The building sector in the ...
