It’s ICF's proprietary energy simulation and analysis tool, the Building Energy Analysis Console, Beacon™. This tool is developed over the past 15 years, Beacon™ is an energy simulation tool based on DOE-2 which is the most widely used and accepted computer software model for estimating building energy performance.

This Energy Market modelling tool usages ICF’s expertise in energy policy, building science, and industry knowledge with its unique analytical capabilities to help clients successfully develop policies and programs. Beacon™ is capable of modeling a wide range of residential and commercial building types to determine the impact of occupant behavior, building characteristics, or external influences such as weather conditions and utility costs. The tool is capable of modeling individual buildings as well as conducting parametric analyses.

For any given building, Beacon™ can estimate consumption and demand for every hour in the year. In addition, Beacon™ is optimized for policy-level analysis. It can efficiently handle multitudes of parametric runs. For example, ICF completed an analysis that included the evaluation of more than 1.5 million housing configurations generated over a two-week period.
