Thermal Cooling Load Assessment

Through our exhaustive modeling systems, we can help estimate the accurate declared load and the cooling energy distribution

Overview

There are instances where the customer's cooling demand load, or Demand Load, is not accurately reflected in the actual consumption of the building, often due to open spaces. In such cases, an improper design load may have been adopted in the building's original design. This results in a demand that exceeds the design capacity of the HVAC system, leading to unnecessary extra costs for district cooling plant

Facts and Numbers

40%

of HVAC equipment are oversized by more than 25% at design stage

20%

increase in energy consumption is caused by overestimated HVAC consumption

How We Help

At Ark Energy, we use energy modeling (IES-VE) and BIM to simulate cooling load requirements, enabling renegotiation of contracted loads with district cooling plants without compromising air quality or comfort. We validate MEP consultant calculations to ensure sustainable designs. Our proprietary thermal cooling load assessments deliver 20-40% savings while maintaining cash reserves, combining technical precision with cost-effective energy solutions.
