'''Graphisoft EcoDesigner''' is a discontinued energy evaluation tool for architects. It is an add-on software for [[ArchiCAD]], [[Graphisoft]]'s [[Building Information Modeling]] application which aims to provide information about a building's energy performance at the early design phases and give feedback to architects on the energy efficiency and sustainability of certain design alternatives.
==Features==
The tool can generate results about the energy consumption, [[Carbon footprint]] and the monthly energy balance of a building. This is done by specifying physical properties of an already modeled building envelope using the default values set for different type of building parts or entering custom data, setting up ___location, weather data, building type and HVAC systems for the project. EcoDesigner then passes the data to [[StruSoft]]'s [[VIP-Energy]] calculation engine, which performs a dynamic analysis to produce a final report.
