EQ has a wealth of experience modelling high performance buildings to support third-party certification, including the Zero Carbon Building Standard, LEED, and ENERGY STAR® Multifamily. We can also help with sustainability and commissioning services.

EQ can help with feasibility and advisory, including help estimating building peak loads, annual demands, and balancing, comparison to a business-as-usual design, NPV financial analysis, and third-party geothermal provider comparisons.

Interested in really seeing the impact of how design measures interact? See how your project might perform under multiple design constraints – review tens or hundreds or thousands of simulations at once with parametric modelling.

While energy requirements may vary between municipalities, EQ has the experience necessary to navigate your project through city approvals such as the Toronto Green Standard, including energy modelling, renewable energy estimates, and more.

Compliance with energy code compliance including Ontario Building Code (OBC SB-10), as well as other provincial codes such as the National Energy Building Code (NECB).

We can help optimize design to maximize funding, by helping your team achieve minimum energy efficiency requirements of programs like CMHC MLI Select, CMHC AHF, CMHC ACLP, Savings by Design, and FCM Funding.

Looking to save utility costs, manage risk, or drive down the carbon footprint of your building?  ASHRAE Level 1-3 energy audits can help you achieve all of these and more, by undertaking a walkthrough of your building, benchmarking existing utility use against peers, and presenting energy savings measures complete with anticipated return on investment.
