We've been waiting for years for this! Energy Plus, the world's best energy simulation engine developed by the US Department of Energy, and Revit, the industry leading building information modeling (BIM) design tool are now fully integrated, running energy simulations directly from your Revit models "in the cloud."
This latest addition to Autodesk's growing line of built-in simulation tools marks a major achievement. At BERG, we use Energy Plus as one of our primary simulation tools, and we use Revit as our primary design tool. The ease-of-use and workflow compatibility will be thoroughly tested over the coming months.
