Leading Building Analytics Platform

The VE software is widely acknowledged as the leading building analytics platform for top architects, engineers and contractors.

The energy and carbon reduction capability of the technology has been proven on hundreds of thousands of projects worldwide.

Its detailed simulation power connects to any ICL tool to provide performance analysis insights to your community.

Virtually Test Design and Refurbishment Options

The VE translates complex building physics principles and detailed dynamic thermal calculations. All ICL tools utilise this proven simulation engine.

Integrated energy modelling

Building and systems design

Assess against building rating schemes and regulations

Analyse individual or groups of buildings

Consider current and future weather conditions

Integrated Analysis

The power of the VE embeds energy and performance assessment across the entire building lifecycle.

Integrate Performance Analysis into the heart of the design process to improve the performance of any building.

Case Studies

Explore how our customers are harnessing the power of the VE with our interconnected ICL platform.

Lateral Technologies: John Lewis

Lateral Technologies used the VE to achieve 35-40% less carbon than other similar John Lewis stores and are now using iSCAN to identify performance gaps to deliver a soft landing.

NTU EcoCampus

IES delivered an interactive 3D visualisation and masterplanning model for NTU’s flagship ‘Living Lab’ programme, in addition to calibrated modelling, building performance simulation and analysis of energy reduction technologies.

BCA Academy Campus

IES and the BCA Singapore have successfully demonstrated an innovative energy modelling approach to improve and optimise the performance of building clusters.

Galliera Hospital Campus

This project focused on performance optimisation of the site at a Masterplanning level, and on the integration of renewable technologies into the Campus energy network system.

Barts Health NHS: Alex Wing

The Trust turned to IES to deliver a virtual benchmark of the building, accurate to within a small percentage, in order to identify operational issues and assess potential Energy Improvement Strategies.

Office Refurbishment

IES Consulting and the new iSCAN tool played a pivotal role in ensuring the client’s sustainability aspirations were met by using cutting edge operational energy modelling, and M&V techniques to assess and ensure energy performance targets were met at design, construction and operation.

What Our Customers Say

Early collaboration in our integrated design approach led to important innovations. For example, a first-of-its-kind displacement ventilation system saves energy and improves fan comfort by delivering conditioned air directly beneath the seats and allowing people to influence the temperature through an app on their phones.

Alastair MacGregor

Vice President, High-performance Buildings, AECOM

To achieve a passive building requires a combination of smart strategies integrated from the early stages of the project. Although the internal temperatures demonstrated in this project were slightly higher than the 28ºC target set, the client was still extremely happy with the strategy we proposed. We are now working with them on another new building on the site and, through a combination of IESVE modelling and site verification, we expect to identify new passive strategies capable of achieving internal temperatures of no more than 26ºC.
