Tools ready before ECBC was adopted mandatorily at the state levels Web application through a standard Internet browser. Users do not need simulation software or any other special software

installed on their computers. Users do not need to manage upgrades to the software Allows design teams to collaborate remotely. Collect user inputs into a central database.

Whole Building Performance


Why a Whole Building Performance Tool

12/5/2012

27


EC Act of 2001 required energy consumption standards for buildings to be expressed as EPI

Enables trade‐off between building systems Promotes innovation in design and technologies Makes simulation more accessible and reliable


Why a Whole Building Performance Tool

12/5/2012

28


Building industry professionals inexperienced with simulation Reasonable defaults and input checking Ensures consistency in simulations Tool peer reviewed by simulation experts in India


Current Version
