IES <VE> Virtual Environment

What is Virtual Environment software?

IES <VE> offers the most comprehensive suite of whole-building energy, thermal and carbon emission analysis tools on the market. It enables the interrelated dynamics of a building and its surroundings to be assessed so designers can understand the effectiveness of a building and its energy systems right from the earliest stages of design – quickly and easily.

The software enables us to build a model with or without CAD data. We can create a 3D model from scratch or from imported 2D DXF data within the ModelIT application.

Here at Energy Solutions Consultants we have just began work on modelling a large NHS hospital to produce an accurate energy report and EPC.

CADmep+

CADmep+

What is CADmep+?

CADmep+ loads as an approved application from within AutoCAD. CADmep+ contains HVAC, mechanical, public health fitting and equipment libraries based on leading manufacturer's products. There are also electrical containment and structural steel libraries. CADmep+ has a proven track record on major construction projects and is used by all disciplines from design and build through to facilities management.

Here at Energy Solutions Consultants we have recently completed the 3D models of energy centre, service duct and basement areas at the new Fife Acute hospital in Kirkcaldy. On going prospects include Mosshill Data Centre in Ayr and an Anaerobic Digestion Plant in Lanarkshire.

Anaerobic Digestion

Anaerobic Digestion

What is Anaerobic Digestion?

Anaerobic digestion is a process by which certain kinds of bacteria break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. This useful biological process is often used for waste management. Organic wastes are collected in a tank sealed off from oxygen, and anaerobic bacteria are added, resulting in useful end products including fertilizer and methane-based biofuel.

Here at Energy Solutions Consultants we are currently working on a new Anaerobic Digestion plant in Lanarkshire in conjunction with a confidential client. The plant when complete will be the first of it’s kind to be built in the UK using only food wastes.

CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme

CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme

What is the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme?

The CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme (formerly known as the Carbon Reduction Commitment) is the UK's mandatory climate change and energy saving scheme, due to start in April 2010. It is central to the UK’s strategy for improving energy efficiency and reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as set out in the Climate Change Act 2008. It has been designed to raise awareness in large organisations, especially at senior level, and encourage changes in behaviour and infrastructure.

The scheme's amended title serves to better reflect the CRC’s focus on increasing energy efficiency.

Here at Energy Solutions Consultants we currently involved in various prospects in the public, private, commercial, utility and healthcare sectors.
