Hi, I am a sustainability and management consultant with a background in interior design and design management. As an eco design enthusiast, I believe that green is the future of our industry and it should be second nature to our design concept and intent. This blog is my way of sharing my passion for design, sustainability and great creations with you.
Thinking Green: Free Energy Modeling Software
The US department of energy (DOE) developed free energy modeling software that is an information resource on national model energy codes. They are COMcheck, for commercial applications, and Rescheck, for residential applications. The Materials (software, manual code compliance, and reference guides) simplify and clarify commercial, high-rise residential and general residential energy code compliance. Forms and checklists are included for documenting compliance. Example: The COMcheck software simplifies energy code compliance by offering a flexible computer-based alternative to manual calculation.
It is simple download the program, go to the DOE website www.energycodes.gov. There you have software, technical support and info about all energy coeds for all the states.
Making sure energy savings are in place will help us reduce our carbon footprint and take a step forward to help reduce our environmental impact. We need to start thinking in all ways to how we can design, build and renovate our surroundings to generate environments that benefit our planet not hinder it and use all the resources we have to help us do so.
