Studies and Audits

Buildings account for more than 40% of the energy consumed in the United States. McGuire Engineers (MEPC) can conduct energy studies and audits to identify how your building compares to others. We can also assist you in developing reliable, low-cost measures to reduce energy consumption. Our goal is simple: to help you maximize your investment.

 By performing an in-depth analysis of how various systems interact, MEPC provides you with practical reports on a building’s energy use.

Energy Modeling

Energy modeling is an integral part of sustainable design for buildings seeking LEED certification. With USGBC’s newly issued LEED v3.0, energy modeling has taken on an even more important role for the certification and re-certification of a building, as well as the potential de-certification if it does not perform as predicted.

McGuire Engineers (MEPC) uses the latest software and technology to develop accurate energy models to assist in making economic decisions on equipment retrofits and LEED Energy and Atmosphere credits.

Some of the more complex projects MEPC has successfully modeled include:
  • Displacement Ventilation
  • Underground Air Ducts
  • Wind Turbines
  • Solar Air Preheating
  • Photovoltaic and Daylighting
  • Design-Phase with Life Cycle Costing
  • “In-Slab” Radiant Heating
