Warrington Borough Council, GB estimates the impacts of building retrofits with digital twin
Warrington, Pure Leapfrog, and IES developed a digital twin covering the borough's 70 square miles. Data from the council and the Energy Performance Certificate system resulted in 29 area models. The digital twin built from these models shows residential buildings' use, age, and utility infrastructure. The IES Intelligent Community Information Model allows borough officials to identify the optimal retrofit for each building based on basic, intermediate, and full retrofit scenarios.
