Arborus works with Natural Resources Canada and the National Research Council (Codes Canada) providing research energy modeling and cost-benefit analysis to assist the government to advance building energy codes and support the development of retrofit programs.

Other energy research projects include:

Canadian Border Services Agency – Energy efficiency and renewable energy opportunity assessment for border crossing facilities.

Ontario Ministry of Energy– Study to identify economic and regulatory barriers for the large-scale deployment of residential solar hot water systems

Industry Canada– “Addressing the Barriers Facing Large Scale Deployment of Photovoltaics as a Distributed Energy Source in Canada” – Technical advisors for this national report.

University of Ottawa– Technology Study: Power Spar solar thermal-PV system

Deline Dene Band Council– Deline, NT. – Feasibility study for a community owned power-generating facility (Hybrid system using wind & diesel generation supplemented with a district heating system).

Major Energy Retrofit Guides

Office of Energy commissioned Arborus to produce Guidebooks for the major energy retrofit of seven building types. Energy performance analysis was completed to estimate the benefits of ECMs across multiple climate zones.

CAN-QUEST Modelling Guide

Arborus updated the latest issue of the Guide, verifying functionality and guidance documentation.

Standard Operating Procedures

Arborus has prepared Standard Operating Procedures for 11 federal government buildings.  SOPs provide building operators with comprehensive configuration and operational records for HVAC systems.

Low Carbon Building Heating Solutions, Conference Paper, International Institute for the Sustainable Built Environment (iiSBE), 2016

Arborus developed the course, study and examination material for the Alberta Safety Codes Council for the provincial adoption of the National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB 2011) and the National Building Code 9.36 (housing and small buildings).
