Energy Innovation
Energy innovation is more than simply being more environmentally conscious. It’s about helping to carve a cleaner, more sustainable future for generations to come. Our creative solutions are not only kinder to the environment, they will also save you money, by actually helping to minimize your monthly running costs.
Why Energy Innovation Is So Important
With the world’s supply of natural resources in rapid decline, we believe it is vital to have a long-term sustainable energy policy that involves the clever use of renewable energy and energy saving measures. At Alpin, we take into consideration everything from your building’s orientation, glazing, materials and HVAC, to lighting, water and renewable energy resources to come up with innovative energy saving solutions.
Our Approach To Energy Innovation
Our team has years of experience in sourcing and implementing some of the most cutting edge, creative sustainable solutions. We are always researching new ways to help you harness the power of cleaner energy sources. Our strategies are not only cleaner and less harmful to the environment, they will also help you surpass your energy performance goals.
Our Energy Innovation Services
Energy Audits
Our diagnostics team will look at exactly how your building and all its systems function as a whole. We’ll help evaluate and uncover ways in which it might be wasting energy or underperforming and recommend measures that can reverse this. Our energy audit services will not only vastly improve your building’s operational efficiency and save you money, it will decrease the time you spend dealing with complaints; creating a happier, healthier environment for your occupants.
Energy Modeling and Analysis
We use cutting-edge technology to virtually look at your entire building and how each of its components and systems function together. By doing so, we can analyze and predict monthly energy bills, lower annual costs and create a stronger development that operates more efficiently. We’ll help your design team weigh up alternative strategies for improving building performance and running costs, while also helping you to meet your energy saving goals, LEED credits or local and international energy requirements.
Measurement and Verification
Once we’ve calculated the predicted savings you could make by carrying out energy modeling and audits, we can then verify the exact total through measurement, performance data trending, system diagnostics and utility bill analysis. We’ll directly compare the estimated savings from your energy model to the detailed data we collect to define your project’s true energy savings.
Daylight Modeling and Analysis
We use some of the most advanced lighting / daylighting analysis tools on the market to help revolutionize daylight design solutions. We can work from your design team’s 2D or 3D CAD / Revit files to create an accurate representation of the space, taking into account glazing properties, surface reflectance, furniture layout, shading and light distribution.
Renewable Energy Strategies
Did you know that using renewable technologies such as solar, wind, geothermal or biomass to generate electricity and heating is actually cleaner and more cost effective than traditional methods? Our renewable energy study will look at everything from energy demand and efficiency to annual operating costs and carbon emissions to determine the best strategy for your project.
CxA Commissioning
Commissioning is at the heart of what we do. It’s a vital process that is employed right from the first design stages through to handover and beyond, to help guarantee the operational success of your project. Our owners and developers have commissioned our expertise in everything from high tech laboratories to high performance schools.
BIM (Building Information Management)
Our approach to using Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) with international standards in Building Information Modelling across all our projects means we dramatically reduce mistakes and waste, in turn helping you to save both crucial time and money.

Integrated At Last: Real-time operational energy and cost analysis throughout design and construction
As the world moves rapidly towards a more sustainable future, the design and construction of high-performance buildings has become the aspiration of developers on a global scale. In order to bring high-performance design to life, developers and designers alike need to adopt novel processes and abandon timeworn and out of date practices.
