Services

Technical consulting across the full spectrum of energy efficiency—from individual building audits to province-wide program design. Every engagement is led by a Professional Engineer.

01

Energy Audits & Deep Retrofit Modelling

Detailed energy assessments and modelling for residential and commercial buildings. We conduct ASHRAE-style audits, build HOT2000 and PHPP energy models, run parametric analyses, and develop deep retrofit strategies—from Part 9 single-family homes to Part 3 multi-unit residential and commercial buildings.

  • AHANS James Street: ASHRAE-style energy audit and parametric modelling for an 1890 Victorian building conversion to 12 affordable housing units
  • ReCover Initiative: Energy modelling for 20 building archetypes across Atlantic Canada, analyzing four retrofit scenarios (50–80% energy reduction)
81.5%
Energy Reduction Achieved

DSM Program Design & Resource Planning

Design and modelling of demand-side management programs, including measure characterization, cost-effectiveness testing, potential studies, and regulatory filings. Our founders have experience modelling ratepayer-funded DSM programs exceeding $50 million annually.

  • CLEAResult/ePEI: Demand response program design for Prince Edward Island targeting 20 MW capacity over 5 years
  • EfficiencyOne: 2023–2025 and 2026–2030 DSM Resource Plans with measure-level savings assumptions
  • C&I Demand Response: Pilot achieving approximately 8 MW of peak demand curtailment

Building Code Training & Compliance

Development of training materials, job aids, and quick-reference guides for building officials, contractors, and energy advisors on NBC/NECB 2020 energy code compliance.

  • BTZx Job Aids: NBC 2020 Part 9 tier compliance quick references and 4-hour building official training module
  • BTZx Municipal Readiness: Consultation sessions across all five NSBOA zones assessing municipal readiness for tiered energy code implementation
  • HRM: HOT2000 energy modelling training for Halifax Regional Municipality building officials

Measurement & Verification

Application of IPMVP protocols to validate energy savings from retrofits and efficiency programs. Our team includes published researchers in M&V methodologies with practical experience across all four IPMVP options.

  • efficiencyPEI: M&V procedures for demand response programs
  • Published Research: Peer-reviewed paper on simplified M&V combined with quality assurance instruments (Bleyl et al., 2024)

Technical Research & Policy Analysis

Jurisdictional scans, regulatory analysis, and technical research supporting energy efficiency programs and policy development. We provide the evidence base for informed decision-making.

  • EfficiencyOne: Heat pump water heater policy analysis and DOE 2024 Final Rule assessment
  • EfficiencyOne: Building codes summary and program implications analysis for NBC/NECB 2020
  • BTZx: Two-phase jurisdictional scan of energy modeller training programs across Canada
