OpenStudio is an open-source SDK (software development kit) for building energy simulation. OpenStudio greatly reduces the cost of developing end-use applications and services that exploit energy simulation by providing a large library of common helper functions for creating, querying, and transforming energy models, running simulations, and working with results. OpenStudio updates are released quarterly—the most recent version update, 1.9.0, was released 9/30/2015.

EnergyPeriscope is designed to speed up and enhance the sales process. Easily crunch the numbers, generate professional sales proposal materials, and manage your sales activities. Model and quote: PV, solar thermal, energy storage, energy efficiency, wind turbines.

Track, compare, target and evaluate the energy efficiency performance of your estate with advanced weather analytics and comparison benchmarking. View and share estate-wide energy performance reporting for total energy consumption, by period, fuel and building for monitoring and understanding your estate’s energy consumption.

EP-Quick creates input files for many different buildings using built in templates for the shape and zone layout.

FineHVAC is a powerful BIM application that integrates drawings & calculations within an intelligent, AutoCAD®-like environment. Fine HVAC’s Calculation module is closely interacting with the BIM model: it reads the physical properties of the BIM objects to calculate the HVAC loads space by space. Besides, it recognizes the networks and receptors to calculate the air-duct and piping networks, producing the necessary calculations, as well as the entire set of drawings (plan views, vertical diagrams, axonometric diagrams, 2D/3D Piping/Ducting Networks etc) properly updated with the calculation results.

BSIMAC's three main functions are: (a) calculation of the cooling/heating loads and the required capacities of HVAC equipment, (b) annual energy simulation of the building and HVAC equipment, and (c) calculation of the expected room (space) temperatures with no cooling or heating on summer and winter design days. These three functions require virtually the same input data. The computations are carried out on an hour-by-hour basis.
