Akonovia, a consultant company specialized in building energy efficiency, helps design teams and owners toreduce building lifecycle costs. Akonovia (formerly Simulead) has been the first company in Quebec to carryout mandates of energy simulation using BIM (Building Information Modeling). Designing mechanical andarchitectural systems during the conceptual and schematic design stages is normally limited to qualitative (andsometimes, high-level quantitative) evaluation of available alternatives. According to the Akonovia experts'experience, energy simulations are currently mostly performed when the preferable design is selected (mostlyby relying on the engineering experience). This project, however, develops a robust decision support system bycombining building energy simulation with economic analyses to provide a quantitative support to data-drivendecision making in schematic and conceptual design phases. Several recent studies in Canada and elsewherehave highlighted the benefits of coupling economic analyses with energy simulation, to decrease the energyconsumption and lifecycle costs. Optimizing the lifecycle performance requires taking actions as early as inconceptualization steps of the building design. Decisions made at the early design phases of buildings,normally tend to commit considerable costs (or savings) that will be incurred at later phases of the lifecycle andhave the greatest level of impact on the lifecycle costs and benefits. On the foundation of the state-of-the-art ofBIM, open source technologies, and economic analytics, this Engage Grant supports development of acloud-based decision support system which combines energy simulation with economic analyses forquantitative analysis of building lifecycle performance, at early stages of building conceptualization. The futurecollaboration between the research team at Concordia University and Akonovia, as the industry partner, canextended the decision support system to be integrated with IoT (Internet of Things) and provide a tool forcontrolling the energy consumption behavior of the built facility, and also to enrich the system's database formore accurate analyses and forecasts in new designs.

Akonovia是一家专门从事建筑节能的咨询公司，帮助设计团队和业主降低建筑生命周期成本。Akonovia（前身为Simulead）是魁北克第一家使用BIM（建筑信息模型）执行能源模拟任务的公司。在概念和方案设计阶段设计机械和建筑系统通常限于对可用方案的定性（有时是高层次的定量）评估。根据Akonovia专家的经验，目前主要是在选择最佳设计时进行能量模拟（主要依靠工程经验）。然而，该项目通过将建筑能源模拟与经济分析相结合，开发了一个强大的决策支持系统，为方案和概念设计阶段的数据驱动决策提供定量支持。最近在加拿大和其他地方进行的几项研究都强调了将经济分析与能源模拟相结合的好处，以减少能源消耗和生命周期成本。优化生命周期性能需要在建筑设计的概念化阶段就采取行动。在建筑的早期设计阶段做出的决定，通常倾向于承担相当大的成本（或节省），这些成本将在生命周期的后期阶段产生，并对生命周期的成本和收益产生最大程度的影响。在最先进的bim、开源技术和经济分析的基础上，该Engage赠款支持基于云的决策支持系统的开发，该系统将能源模拟与经济分析相结合，在建筑概念化的早期阶段对建筑生命周期性能进行定量分析。康科迪亚大学的研究团队和Akonovia作为行业合作伙伴之间的未来合作，可以扩展决策支持系统与物联网（IoT）的集成，并提供控制已建成设施能耗行为的工具，同时还可以丰富系统的数据库，以便在新设计中更准确地分析和预测。
