🌍💡📊 Exciting Developments in Energetic Renovations and CO2 Impact on Building Energy Demand! 🏢🌿🌱
I am thrilled to share the latest advancements in energy demand estimation, CO2 emissions assessment, and saving potential for urban areas. Introducing the Skenarios model, a powerful tool developed by our esteemed partner, SkenarioLabs. This model is designed to revolutionize the way we evaluate and improve our built environment. 🚀🌎
Originally developed in 2015, the SkenarioLabs model has evolved into a versatile solution used by industry leaders, such as banks for ESG risk assessment and asset managers for property analysis. What sets their system apart is its universal applicability, provided that localized data on building typologies, building codes, and construction costs are readily available. 🏢💡💰
With a focus on cost-effectiveness, their model offers a range of predefined energy efficiency interventions that can be combined for retrofit projects. It also simulates the complete replacement of building parts, such as windows, with modern equivalents. By dynamically calculating the impact of these interventions on energy demand and costs, their model enables informed decision-making. 💰💡🏗️
Heating and cooling demands are calculated using the ISO 52016-1:2017 standard's monthly method. This approach incorporates factors such as heat transfer through the building envelope, ventilation demand, and air infiltration rate. Moreover, the model estimates domestic hot water demand and electricity usage for appliances, HVAC, and lighting, while considering the thermal response and heat capacity of the property. Peak energy demands are also evaluated to assess the effects of interventions on a property's peak energy demand. 🔥❄️💦
Their model is built upon a wealth of data, including building data, weather and climate data, cost data, and more. They collaborate with partners, customers, and open data sources to provide accurate and reliable insights. 📈🌤️📊
By collaborating with renowned organizations like Arup, they have demonstrated the power of their platform in advanced real estate analytics. Together, they developed a virtual representation of thousands of properties across three major UK cities, enabling scenario analysis for retrofit interventions. Their platform, combined with Arup's expertise, has delivered high-quality analysis and has become a go-to solution for central and local Governments around the UK. 🤝🏙️🔬
