ENERGY-10

ENERGY-10 software is a powerful design tool that analyzes—and illustrates—the energy and cost savings that can be achieved through more than a dozen sustainable design strategies. Hourly energy simulations help you quantify, assess, and clearly depict the benefits of daylighting, passive solar heating, natural ventilation, well-insulated envelopes, better windows, lighting systems, mechanical equipment, and more.

Current Version: 1.8, offers many new features including:

  • Photovoltaic module that provides the ability to model and simulate the performance of a PV system that is either stand-alone or integrated with the building.
  • Solar Domestic Hot Water module provides a new solar domestic/service hot water modeling capability.
  • A new library ("ASHRAELIB") is included defining constructions (wall, roof, window, etc.) as spelled out in ASHRAE 90.1-2004.
Current Version1.8
System RequirementsEnergy 10 software will run on PC. Typically, this would be a system with a 350 MHz Pentium III CPU or greater, and 64MB of RAM or greater. Energy-10 itself requires at least 13 MB of hard disk space. There have been some incompatibility issues with Vista. The software will also run on Mac.
