Tools

LCAbyg is Denmark’s official tool for assessing the environmental impact of buildings across their full life cycle. It calculates resource use, emissions, and hotspots from materials, construction, operation, and end‑of‑life, helping designers make climate‑aware decisions.

LCCbyg is a lifecycle costing tool that supports informed decisions by comparing long‑term cost profiles for buildings and components. It enables public and private clients to assess alternatives consistently, document statutory requirements, and identify cost‑effective solutions.

UBAKUS is a web-based tool for calculating U-values and thermal performance of building material layers.

iKnos Energy links real occupancy patterns, captured through the existing Wi-Fi network, to a digital twin of the building to cut energy use in offices. An R&D project with research centre CIMNE validated it in five Spanish pilot buildings, achieving the targeted 20% energy and CO2 savings.

CraveZero is a web-based framework for cost-effective and energy-efficient building lifecycle management.

STBA Responsible Retrofit Guidance Wheel is a decision-support tool for balancing technical, heritage, and energy considerations in retrofits.

An open-source tool for connecting devices, managing Internet of Things data and creating monitoring applications. Contexus IoTHub provides a flexible foundation for smart building projects and connected infrastructure.

An open platform that transforms dispersed building data into actionable information: BEMServer supports the monitoring, analysis and integration of energy services, enabling more efficient, data-driven building management.

Eurac Research provides online access to validated components and computational resources supporting the development of digital tools for analysing buildings within the Energy Efficient Building Tools ecosystem.

The IPV platform aims to inspire and support the adoption of PV system integration in buildings and infrastructures. It is aimed at architects, PV manufacturers, building component developers, and public institutions involved in shaping the built environment for the energy transition.
