Getting Started with iVN
This series of videos has been designed to help you get started with iVN, our tool for local energy decarbonisation for any new or existing developments. Integrate distributed networks, alongside real or simulated building energy demand data, for improved model accuracy.
This course provides a basic introduction to the iVN and provides a practical guide for using the tool in a variety of applications.
In this course, we cover how to:
- Create buildings in iVN and import existing geometry
- Create network models and explore the different types of network views available
- Import real and simulated building demand data using multiple methods
- Importing and assigning weather files to ensure accurate simulations
- Add network installations from the asset library
