Tools

The equipment we offer at NYC Energy Tools is only half the picture — the measurements they generate are used in calculations to determine how well equipment is performing or how much energy was saved in a retrofit. This is where tools come in. Our tools automate common calculations and modeling functions for consistent documentation of energy or building system conditions.
