Our Firm

EQ is a collaborative consulting firm. Our mission is to guide the creation of responsible buildings. We bring together architects, developers, and building owners to create high performance buildings and communities.

We believe that measurement informs design. Our professionals apply integrated design and computer simulation to influence projects and use post-occupancy metering and performance data to test and validate our design tools. 

Our core services include energy modelling, embodied carbon analysis, sustainability advisory, building commissioning, zero carbon feasibility studies, building certification project management, and resource measurement / verification services. 

Our History

EQ was founded in 2005 as a division within Provident Energy Management, a leading provider of submetering and building automation services to the high-rise residential industry. Initially, the team focused on energy simulations for new construction projects, helping clients optimize energy costs, emissions, and comfort.

Over the following decade, EQ expanded into commissioning and sustainability services and was separately incorporated as EQ Building Performance in 2017. Today, EQ’s team of 25 professionals delivers comprehensive sustainability and energy consulting services to over 200 projects annually across the multi-unit residential, commercial, and institutional sectors.
