This presentation will describe how new tools and processes in energy simulation allow for large parametric modeling studies to be completed cost-effectively. The benefit of these studies is that they provide significantly more insight into the impact of building system variables, both in isolation and in combination. Coupled with advancements in data visualization, the results can be easily communicated to project teams in an integrated design charrette setting, providing significantly more flexibility towards achieving project energy outcomes, including reductions in capital cost.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/4″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default”][image_with_animation image_url=”18885″ alignment=”” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
