Dublin City Council, IE evaluates environmental impacts of housing retrofits with IES digital twin

Dublin City Council, IE IES Digital Twin Housing Retrofits

Project partner IES developed a digital twin of three housing blocks on Dominick Street Lower. This model established energy and emissions baselines for each block. City officials sought simulations of four retrofit strategies to reduce the environmental impacts of houses dating back to the 1960s. Proposed strategies ranged from shallow retrofits to full renovations. The project identified deep retrofit as the most effective strategy for achieving emission reductions over 60 years.
