CarbonMixer® Software Package

Energy and CO₂ emissions strategies are required for an increasing number of developments and are appearing as requirements in local and national regulations.

Carbon Mixer® is designed to allow a building development energy and CO₂ emissions strategy to be assessed in outline in a matter of minutes to give "ballpark" figures complete with costing estimates.

Detailed refinements to the analysis and comparisons of various options can then be carried out in more detail to give a final result at a level of detail suitable for planning authorities and other interested parties.

The energy strategy output can then form an outline brief for the mechanical and electrical design engineers.

Data entry with instant feedback

Carbon Mixer® uses a method of energy and carbon accounting which allows combinations of buildings and energy systems to be compared for carbon emissions. Below is a view of the data entry area of the mixing desk.

When entering data the user gets immediate feedback of the effect of any changes on energy supply and demand (broken down monthly) and carbon dioxide emissions.
