Green building software includes:
1. IES Analysis Software: IES
Its function is similar to Ecotect and can be compatible with Radianceq to visually simulate indoor lighting effects. The student version costs around £50. It integrates a series of modular components for calculation and analysis.
Its energy consumption analysis is very specific.
You can analyze local weather data, analyze the impact of outdoor temperature on energy consumption, and analyze the impact of shading on energy consumption.
Consider the impact of the human body, equipment, lighting and other incidental factors on energy consumptionrgie. These parameters are very specific. For example: the amount of time people stay indoors. For example, at lunchtime, the data can be set to 0.
On weekends, accidental factors such as equipment and lighting can be adjusted to 0. In brief , it can describe the operating status of very specific people and equipment with data, and the operation is relatively convenient.
2. EcotectAnalysis: The main functions of EcotectAnalysis are: environmental simulation analysis, shadow and reflection: visually display the sun path where the model is located, and display the shadow effect in real time. Shading design: An optimized shading system can be automatically generated based on shading needs.
Insolation analysis: precise visualization of solar radiation received by building surfaces and windows. Size of the photovoltaic panel networks and load matching: Used to determine the optimal installation location and size of photovoltaic solar panels. Lighting design: Calculate the solar illumination coefficient and illuminance at any point in the model, as well as the energy saving potential.
3. GreenBuildingStudio: GBS is a web-based analysis tool for global building energy consumption, water resources, and carbon emissions from Autodesk. After logging into its website and creating basic project information, users can use plug-ins to export models in BIM software such as Revit to gbXML and upload them to GBS's server. The calculation results will be displayed instantly and can be exported and compared.
In terms of energy consumption simulation, GBS uses the DOE-2 calculation engine.
Detailed information:
The assessment of green buildings should follow the principle of adapting measures to local conditions, taking into account the climate, environment, resources, economy and culture of the region where the building is located, and evaluate the safety, sustainability, health and comfort, living convenience and security throughout the life of the building. Comprehensive performance evaluation, including resource conservation, environmental sustainability and five others indicators.
The assessment of green buildings should be based on a single building or a group of buildings. The evaluation objects must implementand deepen the green development requirements put forward by higher-level statutory planning and associated special plans; indicators involving a systematic and comprehensive assessment must be based on the overall construction project of the building.

The latest photovoltaic software is very easy to use, called Archelios pro. With this software, you can organize photovoltaic modules with one click, automatically filter and remove seriously blocked photovoltaic modules, and also achieve economic performance. analysis of operations, generation of project reports, etc. My experience after using it is that it is easy to use, simple to use, saves project design time and the economic analysis can provide feedback on the design.n initial and improve the feasibility of real projects.
