From a single building to an entire community

After a quarter of a century working tirelessly on sustainability, we have taken that knowledge to do something completely unique. Our core Virtual Environment software facilitates the energy efficient design of individual buildings, and has been used to design tens of thousands of buildings across the globe.  With the introduction of the Intelligent Communities Lifecycle (ICL), we have scaled our technology up from individual buildings to facilitate lasting change across the entire lifecycle of the built environment – from citizens up to companies, campuses, communities, cities and even whole countries.

Intelligent Communities Lifecycle (ICL)

The Digital Twin for Resilient, Resource-Efficient and Zero-Carbon Built Environments

Our ICL technology makes it possible to bridge the gap between the real world and simulation to enable the energy efficient design and continuous operational optimisation of not just single but entire groups of buildings.

•    Undertake sustainable masterplanning
•    Delve into zero-carbon construction/retrofitting of individual buildings
•    Operate buildings or communities more effectively
•    Integrate with utilities and renewables to create local energy networks
•    Connect, visualise and analyse any data from any source
•    Citizen and operational team collaboration and engagement

Digital Twins for the Built Environment

Smart communities are the building blocks for Zero Carbon Cities. But this requires understanding of the complex interactions between buildings, energy, water, waste and transport. Digital Twins present exciting opportunities to navigate the route to zero-carbon, sustainable and healthier communities. They respond and behave like their real world counterparts, function as problem-solvers and translate data into essential decision support information to improve performance and reduce risk.

NTU Singapore

ICL technology was used across Nanyang Technological University (NTU)’s 250-hectare flagship Ecocampus to uncover over 30% potential reduction in energy consumption and S$4.75M savings.

Delivered in two phases, the project used IES’ innovative ICL technology to provide high-level visualisation and analysis of testbed energy reduction technologies on site, before delving into detailed simulation and calibrated modelling of 21 campus buildings.
