Clark & Enersen provides in-house building energy modeling services, which enhances our ability to incorporate sustainable design principles in our projects. Building energy modeling is the analysis of a building’s operations related to energy use, HVAC loads, and automation control strategies. The analysis is typically performed during the design of a building or for existing building operations.
Performing accurate energy model analysis requires knowledge and understanding of building physics, HVAC loads calculation, and system design. Our energy modeling team performs calculations that facilitate awareness in how the design of site, systems, and structure interplay with each other and the surrounding natural environment and its climate. Building energy modeling allows designers to find the synergies between systems that will improve occupant comfort and validate design decisions that make financial sense for the long-term use and sustainability of the building.
