Energy modelling helps save electricity by showing how a building will use energy before it’s even built. It creates a digital simulation of the building’s lighting, heating, cooling, and appliances to spot where energy might be wasted. This allows architects and engineers to make smart design choices—like better insulation, efficient HVAC systems, and lighting layouts—that lower power use. By planning with energy modelling, buildings in places like BC and Alberta can use less electricity, reduce energy bills, and become more sustainable from the start.
