Building energy simulation software encompasses a range of computer programs designed to model the energy usage of buildings with the aim of predicting and optimizing performance. This software typically simulates the energy flow in a building to assist in the design of energy-efficient structures and to support a variety of decisions around energy consumption, heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) systems, lighting, and choice of building materials. Such tools are instrumental for architects, engineers, and energy analysts in achieving sustainable design goals and complying with energy conservation codes. The market for this software includes both open-source and proprietary solutions, each with various levels of complexity, from simple models for quick evaluations to detailed simulations for comprehensive analysis. These tools often incorporate advanced methodologies including computational fluid dynamics, thermal comfort models, and renewable energy simulation. Integrations with Building Information Modeling (BIM) systems further enhance the value of energy simulation software by enabling a more collaborative and detailed approach to building design and efficiency optimization. In the building energy simulation software market, prominent companies include Autodesk, Inc., which offers solutions like Green Building Studio and Insight; EnergyPlus and OpenStudio supported by the U.S. Department of Energy; TRNSYS developed by the Solar Energy Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin–Madison; Bentley Systems, Incorporated; Integrated Environmental Solutions with its IES Virtual Environment software; Dassault Systèmes with its SIMULIA applications; and Carrier with its Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) for HVAC system design. These companies provide a range of products Show Less Read more
