Week5 pre-session reflection: Energy Modeling: Early and Often

Model early in design and often for the biggest energy and cost savings has been put forward by Tristan Roberts in this article. And he continues to show that energy modelling is effective by providing examples of Rand Ekman’s firm, Greg Mella’s firm and Kirk Teske’s firm.
I haven’t known about it before. I search detailed information about it after I read this article. In my view, this model is very useful because it is going to analyze system feasibility, carbon emissions, financial costs, natural source use as well as energy efficiency, which can help to investigate whether the building is sustainable. Therefore, it can contribute to the development of energy design and energy policy. However, I think it is not easy to create a energy modelling due to complicated design processes, this processes may require much time and cost lot.
