1. 

When is EPC officially required? 

2. 

In BIM-based projects all disciplines such as architects and HVAC-engineers work together on the same BIM model.

3. 

EPC calculators are based on equations reflecting the real world phenomena, such as thermodynamic equations.

4. 

Utilization of the geometry obtained from the BIM model is one of the biggest denominators for faster EPC assessment.

5. 

EPC assessment method is never dependent of the building type, same calculation method apply to all buildings.

6. 

BIM enhance EPC assessment especially by

7. 

Model Checkers can be utilized in EPC assessment for:

8. 

All needed input data for EPC assessments automatically builds into BIM as project proceeds.

9. 

In cases IFC-file is directly imported from BIM to energy simulation software, what kind of EPC data can then usually be transferred?

10.
