Introducing Enscape Impact

IES has partnered with visualisation experts, Chaos, to help deliver their new Enscape Impact add-on. Seamlessly combining user-friendly design tools with sophisticated performance analytics, the tool allows architects to quickly visualise and enhance building performance directly within their design workflow. 


Designed to transform how architects evaluate their creations' sustainability early in the design process, Enscape Impact integrates IES energy modelling capabilities with Enscape’s industry-leading visualisation platform, enhancing visualisations with energy efficiency information, simulated energy use and carbon emissions indicators to guide early design decisions.

Net-Zero Investment Road Mapping

Our digital twin solutions can help to formulate and refine decarbonisation strategies across your portfolio. Ensuring projects deliver on investment expectations by tracking and communicating progress in real time.

  • De-risk capital investment in your Real Estate assets
  • Deliver rental premiums of 6–11% more, with higher occupancy rates
  • Save 20-70% on operational energy costs
  • Make informed and optimised Retrofit / Renovation / Rebuild decisions
  • Balance occupant health and wellbeing with net-zero targets, operational costs and capital expenditure
  • Communicate net-zero plans and progress using visually engaging 3D models

Reduce Operational Costs

Mitigate the impact of rising energy prices with tools to monitor and investigate operational performance across your portfolio. Identify where inefficiencies lie and where improvements are best made to lower energy consumption and drive down costs.

  • Ensure your buildings reach the highest possible asset values
  • Optimise energy performance while safeguarding health and wellbeing credentials
  • Put the power in the hands of your energy/facilities team with a single pane view across all building data
  • Stop operational drift and achieve a minimum 10% savings on operational costs
  • Encourage behaviour change and communicate improvements to staff through interactive displays

Divest from Fossil Fuels

Accelerate the transition to a clean energy future. Our digital twin tools can help identify new ways to meet energy demands across your portfolio and cut reliance on carbon intensive and increasingly finite fossil fuels.

  • Move away from high-carbon sources of energy through electrification of your heating and cooling needs
  • Reduce reliance on the grid and improve energy resilience through renewable energy generation and storage
  • Reduce energy costs by sharing heating, cooling and power across your site
  • Integrate Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations and demand optimisation solutions
  • Understand the complex interactions within and between your buildings and energy networks so you can make informed decisions
  • Save on carbon taxes

Employee Productivity

In a typical organisation, where 90% of typical overheads are spent on human capital, even minor productivity improvements, supported by your digital twin, can substantially impact company turnover and profit.

  • Improve indoor air quality to unlock productivity improvements of 8-11%
  • Create healthy places to work and encourage staff back post COVID
  • Generate up to $7,500 in productivity gains per person per year through enhanced ventilation
  • Retrofit to high level green building certifications (e.g. LEED Platinum) and achieve up to a 30% drop in sick building syndrome
  • Encourage staff wellbeing through local connectivity and active transport provision

Net Zero Compliance

Our digital twin technology can help you comply with local legislation and policies across the U.S.

Helping with Local Law compliance

To help with meeting emissions limits for Local Law 97, compiling energy benchmarking reports and energy audits for Local Law 84 and 87, or improving a building's Energy Star Score in line with Local Law 95, our digital twin building analytics software can help:

  • Identify retrofit or retrocommissioning opportunities for improved energy efficiency
  • Automate energy data collection and analysis for energy audits
  • Carry out performance benchmarking against similar buildings
  • Monitor progress towards net zero carbon over time by tracking emissions

Reducing emissions for commercial buildings

With buildings accounting for nearly 70% of greenhouse gas emissions in Boston, BERDO (the Building Emissions Reduction and Disclosure Ordinance) has been introduced to reduce all building emissions to net zero by 2050. Our digital twins can help you report and reduce your building energy usage by:

  • Adpoting energy optimisation programs by using real-time metering and IES' APACHE software to optimise energy flows throughout the building
  • Highlighting retrofit opportunities to increase energy efficiency
  • Developing a facility energy master plan to monitor energy use reduction
  • Verification of energy use readings through automated data collection

Green Building energy services

Aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, Denver has implemented both its Green Building Ordinance (GBO) and its Energize Denver Benchmarking Ordinance. IES' digital twin software can be used to help you:

  • Establish which green building requirements are most effective for improving energy use intensity (EUI)
  • Identify energy efficiency opportunities to achieve green building certifications
  • Collect and verify energy data required for benchmarking
  • De-risk potential renewable energy options, such as onsite solar panels or offsite energy purchases

Decarbonisation planning on the road to net zero

Adopted in 2013, the Seattle Climate Action Plan aims to bring greenhouse gas emissions in the city to net zero by 2050. To meet this target, the Seattle Buildings Tune Up Ordinance and the Energy Benchmarking Law were both introduced. IES' range of digital twin tools can help you on the road to net zero through:

  • Developing energy master plans focusing on low carbon solutions
  • Analysing energy data collected from smart meters for energy audits
  • Exploring retrofit or retrocommissioning plans by highlighting emissions-reduction benefits
  • Highlighting areas of energy use and wastage through benchmarking
