Did you know we were featured in IES\u2019s latest article?<\/strong> This milestone not only marks a turning point for sustainable construction in Colombia, but also caught the attention of one of the world\u2019s leading energy modeling software companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green\u202fLoop is proud to announce its key role in the development of Colombia\u2019s first National Energy Code for new buildings<\/strong>, a groundbreaking regulatory framework for the country. Our work was recently highlighted by IES Ltd.<\/strong>, creators of the IES Virtual Environment (IESVE)<\/strong> software, in an official case study that recognized the scale and impact of our contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Challenge: Building the Energy Foundation of Colombia\u2019s Future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, Colombia\u2019s Ministry of Housing entrusted Green\u202fLoop with conducting a nationwide comparative analysis to determine the minimum standards for energy efficiency in buildings. We were selected as the only consultancy in Colombia with proven experience in large-scale energy simulation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the IESVE platform, we developed over 1,300 independent energy models<\/strong> covering a wide range of building types and climatic conditions across the country. This approach allowed us to capture, with unprecedented technical precision, the real performance and energy consumption needs of Colombian buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Did We Do It? IESVE as the Simulation Engine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IESVE software was fundamental in modeling and comparing energy performance across all of Colombia\u2019s bioclimatic zones. Its powerful simulation capabilities allowed us to evaluate critical variables such as thermal insulation, air infiltration, HVAC efficiency, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IES Ltd. featured this project in its most recent case study<\/strong>, emphasizing the scale, depth, and complexity of the modeling work led by Green\u202fLoop, as well as the project\u2019s national regulatory significance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe scale of this modeling effort\u2014over 1,300 simulations\u2014represents one of the most advanced IESVE-based energy modeling exercises in Latin America.\u201d<\/em>
