    Description

    The next generation of Insight in Revit 2025 software is a powerful tool for predicting carbon usage in building designs from the earliest design stages. With this highly accessible tool, anyone can participate in the process of making critical decisions regarding the sustainable design of a building. By combining Revit model data with the open-source EnergyPlus engine, fast and accurate energy calculations become easy for all Revit users. Learn how Victus Engineering, a small MEP firm in St. Paul, Minnesota, used the next generation of Insight to design a sustainable library building. From the earliest schematic design stages, Victus engineers used Insight in combination with other Revit tools like Systems Analysis to select and rightsize equipment, design sustainable systems, and drive conversations with the architect regarding the overall direction of the design. Design more-sustainable buildings, reduce carbon usage, and meet stringent sustainability goals with this powerful tool.
