High Performance Green Building Case Studies


Rapidly growing worldwide demand for high-performance buildings means the ability to accurately predict energy consumption, CO2 emissions, operating costs, and occupant comfort is now critical to the success of projects ranging from the small and simple to the very large and highly complex. It also means architects, MEP and building services engineers, and energy assessors need the right tools to effectively and productively design, analyze, and simulate building energy systems.

Bentley offers comprehensive building energy design, analysis, and simulation software for the infrastructure lifecycle to help today’s professionals productively deliver  sustainable high-performance buildings.

User Testimonials

“Parsec Consulting Engineers has used Hevacomp on many projects, and we find that it gives us an edge over the competition to provide support in our scheme designs. Our commitment to work beyond building regulations would not be achievable without the use of this software; it provides a valuable working platform for all our projects.” -- Shaun Ackerly, director, Parsec Consulting Engineers, (United Kingdom)

“The Swiss Re building was delivered in 2004. Concept design started in 2000 with detailed design completed in 2003. Tas was used throughout this design development. A key aspect of the design concept was the mixed mode operation, wherein the building would be naturally ventilated for a significant part of the year, only bringing on cooling, via fan coils, during hotter periods. Tas was the only tool that was capable of handling such a challenging concept.” Matt Kitson, Sustainability Director, Hilson Moran (United Kingdom)

“New KZF Design has been in search of mechanical design software with integrated energy analysis and drafting capabilities for several years. After researching, seeing demonstrations and having the chance to try the software, the choice became clear. We believe Bentley’s Energy Performance Series will take time off of our initial design of projects in a climate that requires more design in less time.”  Byron H. Cherry KZF Design (United States)

“In today’s economy, you must be certain you are providing your clients the highest quality work for their dollars. This means working both harder and smarter to stretch that investment and assure the building meets expected performance goals. We feel Bentley’s Energy Performance Series will help us do just that.” — David Cusano, BIM/CAD Technology, SSOE, Inc. (United States)
