Energy Modeling

Synergy Engineering prides itself on delivering energy efficient, cost, and environmentally conscious solutions for the next generation of High Performance Buildings.

We build sophisticated whole-building Energy Models that accurately demonstrate the operating cost benefits of proposed building envelope, HVAC, daylighting and other technologies that can present decision makers with compelling reasons for implementing sustainable strategies into project design.

Our whole-building simulation analysis is based on the rigorous engineering approach that fully captures the interaction between building systems.

Synergy Engineering will analyze the following energy efficient measures and their interactive effect on the whole-building energy performance:

  • High performance glazing selection and placement
  • Day lighting and lighting control
  • Building envelope construction and thermal performance
  • CO2 Demand Control Ventilation (DCV)
  • Under floor air distribution (UFAD)
  • Central Chiller Plant (electric, steam or hybrid configuration)
  • Central Boiler Plant with High efficiency boilers (gas, oil or dual fired)
  • Thermal Energy Storage (TES) or ice storage
  • Geothermal (Ground-source) Heat Pumps
  • Water-source Heat Pumps
  • Air and Water-side economizers
  • Exhaust air heat recovery
  • Premium efficiency motors on pumps and fans
  • Variable speed drives on electric chillers, pumps and fans
  • Variable primary flow chilled water distribution
  • Variable flow condenser water system
  • Primary / secondary variable flow chilled and hot water distribution
  • Chiller / Boiler Plant Optimization Strategies
  • Cogeneration
  • On-site renewable power generation
