PHPP is a powerful building energy modelling that provides accurate predictions of building performance. However, modelling multiple design options in PHPP can be tricky and/or time consuming. In PHPPv9, the Passive House Institute introduced the Variants worksheet to help address this issue. The Variants worksheet is a power tool that allows simultaneous modelling of multiple design options. This 2 week online course will explore how the Variants tool can be set up and used to achieve this and other objectives. Exercises will reinforce the learning.
