Heat Balances & Energy Optimization

Thermal performance is engineered, not estimated.

We develop high-resolution heat balance models that define the exact energy demand of a building under real climatic and operational conditions. This analysis forms the regulatory backbone of the building permit process and the strategic foundation of long-term asset performance.

All assessments are executed in strict alignment with federal and cantonal legislation and SIA standards, including SIA 180 and SIA 380/1. Compliance is integrated into the model architecture, not appended afterward.

Our simulations incorporate envelope physics, thermal bridges, orientation, climatic datasets, solar radiation profiles, ventilation dynamics, and system efficiencies. The outcome is a fully quantified thermal behavior profile.

The result: reduced uncertainty, optimized capital allocation, and engineered performance with institutional-grade reliability.

02 — Expertise

Advanced Building Physics

Where architectural vision meets thermodynamic rigor. We engineer the internal environment to achieve peak efficiency and uncompromising climate control through high-fidelity physical modeling.

Our building physics services include:

  • SIA Mastery: Expert application of national engineering standards
  • Environmental Synthesis: Predictive simulations for all-season performance.
  • Risk Mitigation: Precision analysis of thermal, moisture, and acoustic dynamics.

State-Accredited

Project Governance (AMO Vaud)

As a State of Vaud-accredited Assistant Project Manager, Duralis Energy provides the institutional oversight necessary for complex building renovations. We lead the coordination of all technical and administrative stakeholders, ensuring project compliance from inception to delivery.

Our accreditation facilitates access to State of Vaud financial incentives, optimizing the project’s capital efficiency.

Regulatory Excellence

Regulatory Intelligence & Certification

Navigating the multi-jurisdictional complexities of Swiss energy law with surgical precision. We ensure every project phase adheres to rigorous cantonal and federal standards to secure seamless authorization.

Permit Management

Building permit application files are difficult and complex to put together. They have to comply with different points depending on the municipality or canton in which you are planning to build.

That is why we offer the possibility to take care of the energy dossier in order to save you time and energy, and to ensure you have a better chance of obtaining the building permit in the shortest possible time.

Control of Investigation Files for Municipalities

In the same way as for the construction of the enquiry file, we offer the communes the service of checking the conformity of the investigation files with the laws and standards in force.

Advanced Diagnostics

Infrared Thermography

A diagnostic tool that allows the detection of disorders invisible to the naked eye.

It allows, with an image taken as close as possible, to detect local thermal variations, and thus to visualise and highlight insulation defects not previously suspected. Conversely, it can demonstrate the presence of defects that are suspected.

In existing buildings, it can highlight the major defects to be treated as a priority. In new buildings, it can be a powerful tool for measuring the quality of a project.

Applications

  • Building (terrestrial and aerial TIR)
  • Industry
  • Human and veterinary medicine
  • Aeronautics / Aerospace
  • Non Destructive Testing (NDT)
  • Military & Scientific research

Building Diagnostics

  • Diagnosis of structures and weak points
  • Analysis and research of leak causes
  • Humidity & Infiltration detection
  • Energy performance optimization
  • Insulation work quality control
  • Detection of fluid networks & electrical anomalies

CECB logo

CECB Certification

We are qualified CECB experts and are authorised to issue energy certificates for buildings. We have extensive know-how in the field of energy audits of buildings and related optimisation measures.

When CECB is Required

When selling a residential building
When replacing oil or gas heating systems
To obtain state subsidies (CECB Plus)

The cantonal energy certificate indicates energy consumption for heating, hot water, lighting and electrical consumers in standard use.

Strategic Planning

Territorial Energy Planning

Energy planning, which is compulsory in some Swiss cantons, aims to facilitate the integration of renewable energy and the creation of the necessary infrastructure for its use and distribution.

Municipal & Regional Level

Carried out at the level of a district, a municipality, a canton or an entire region, "territorial energy planning" aims to reduce energy requirements through optimized spatial planning.

  • Optimal building orientation
  • Proximity to renewable resources
  • Waste heat recovery integration
  • District heating networks

Financial Support Available

Municipalities can benefit from significant subsidies for territorial energy planning studies.

50%
Study Costs Covered
100%
ROI Potential

The subsidised amounts can reach 50% of the study costs, making comprehensive energy planning accessible to municipalities of all sizes.
