Using simulations during the early planning phases of non-residential building projects makes it possible to optimize the interplay between the building envelope and heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) technology under given climate factors and usage requirements.

Suitable simulation techniques help us to identify potential weaknesses, cost reduction potential and optimization opportunities in building concepts and existing buildings at an early stage.
We develop tailor-made approaches to achieving "slimline buildings".

Our range of services covers monitoring and operation management, planning support during the development of building concepts and mobile short-time measurements on-site.

We offer planning, consultation and concept development services in the implementation of building projects for all matters relating to energy and user comfort.
We employ people from many different disciplines who work hand-in-hand to complete these tasks. With a team of architects, engineers, physicists, technical planners and industry representatives, Fraunhofer ISE plans buildings for today and develops building concepts for tomorrow.

Our strengths lie in the fields of light simulation, room climate analysis and the detailed modeling of complex energy supply systems. As well as applying our own simulation tools, we also work to refine them and develop them further for our customers.
