Energy Audits

ASHRAE Level I, II & III

A Technosim energy audit delivers a rigorous, quantitative assessment of your building's energy consumption. Our licensed engineers analyze all energy-consuming systems — HVAC, lighting, envelope, and controls — to identify, prioritize, and quantify efficiency improvement opportunities.

Level I — Walk-Through Assessment

Site inspection and utility bill analysis to identify low-cost/no-cost measures and flag areas for deeper study.

Level II — Energy Survey & Analysis

Detailed analysis of all energy systems with capital cost estimates, payback calculations, and a prioritized action plan.

Level III — Investment-Grade Audit

Engineering-level analysis with sufficient accuracy for capital investment decisions. Full simulation and detailed cost models.

Energy Simulation

Whole-Building Modelling

We build calibrated energy models of your facility using industry-standard simulation engines. Our models predict annual energy consumption, validate design choices, and generate the compliance documentation required for code and energy efficiency certification.

LEED Energy & Atmosphere Credit

EA Credit 1 compliance modelling per ASHRAE 90.1 for LEED-NC, LEED-CI, and LEED-EB certification.

RETScreen Expert

Feasibility studies for commercial buildings and performance evaluation using NRCan's RETScreen Expert — including clean energy analysis and M&V.

Design Optimization

Comparative analysis of envelope options, HVAC strategies, and control sequences to maximize energy performance.

Recommissioning

Restoring Peak Building Performance

Over time, building systems drift from their designed performance due to changes in occupancy, control sequences, and component wear. Our recommissioning process systematically identifies and corrects these deficiencies, restoring efficiency and comfort without capital expenditure.

Planning & Investigation

Review of as-built drawings, building automation data, and maintenance records to identify system deficiencies.

Functional Testing

On-site testing of HVAC controls, sequences of operation, economizer cycles, and zoning to verify intended function.

Implementation & Verification

Correction of faults, optimization of setpoints, and M&V monitoring to confirm and sustain energy savings.
