Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

Property managers and energy consultants manually review energy data and renovation scenarios, spending days or weeks creating energy assessments. Without simulation capabilities, they cannot accurately predict renovation ROI or prioritize measures across large portfolios.

The Solution

Automatically models building energy performance using address-based data and energy consumption records. Simulates hundreds of renovation combinations and calculates payback periods in minutes. Enables rapid portfolio-wide energy assessments with financial projections.
