OUR ENERGY MODELLING EXPERTISE

Intelligent Analysis.
Optimised Building Design.

Our energy modelling and analysis services help project teams evaluate building performance, explore design improvements and make informed decisions to reduce energy consumption.

01

IES (VE) Energy Modelling

We use IES Virtual Environment modelling software to analyse building energy performance and provide technical inputs that support efficient building design.

02

Building Design Optimisation

Our modelling experience helps identify opportunities to optimise building design and improve energy efficiency while supporting reduced energy consumption.

03

Analytical Performance Insights

We use analytical methods throughout the assessment process to provide evidence-based inputs and help project teams understand the energy implications of design decisions.

04

Concept-to-Monitoring Support

From the initial concept stage through to monitoring, we provide energy modelling assistance and analytical guidance throughout the building project lifecycle.

OUR APPROACH

From Early Concept
to Building Performance.

Energy modelling is most valuable when considered early in the design process. Our analytical approach helps project teams make informed decisions at each stage of building development.

01 / CONCEPT

Early Design Assessment

Evaluate building design concepts early to identify opportunities for improved energy efficiency and establish a direction for further analysis.

02 / MODELLING

Energy Simulation

Use IES (VE) software to model building performance and assess the potential energy implications of different design decisions.

03 / OPTIMISATION

Design Refinement

Apply analytical findings to support design improvements, optimise building performance and identify opportunities to reduce energy consumption.

04 / MONITORING

Performance Support

Continue supporting the project with analytical guidance through later development and monitoring stages.

Why start early? Conducting energy modelling during the initial concept design stage helps guide the project towards more efficient building design decisions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your Questions, Answered.

Everything you need to know about Section J compliance, NABERS energy modelling and daylight simulation for commercial buildings.

What's included in a Section J report?

A Section J report assesses the applicable energy efficiency requirements under the National Construction Code (NCC).

Our assessment covers the relevant provisions of Part J4 (Building Fabric) and Part J5 (Building Sealing), helping demonstrate compliance with the applicable requirements.

How does NABERS energy modelling work?

NABERS energy modelling involves analysing the design of commercial buildings to estimate their annual energy consumption, including heating and cooling requirements.

Specialised energy simulation software is used to calculate predicted energy consumption based on building design, operational schedules and usage patterns.

For NABERS purposes, the assessment follows specific behavioural and operational assumptions prescribed for the relevant rating methodology.

The estimated energy consumption is then compared against established benchmarks to determine a predicted NABERS star rating.

What is the best software for daylight simulation in Australia?

Radiance and IES Virtual Environment (IES VE) are recognised software tools used for daylight simulation and building performance analysis.

These tools help evaluate natural daylight availability, building orientation, glazing performance and indoor daylight conditions.

The most suitable software depends on the project's design, simulation requirements and assessment objectives.
