Building efficiency assessment methodology

ADI independently assessed engineered geothermal system economics using expert elicitation and lifecycle cost modeling. Drilling depth, well productivity, stimulation costs, and surface plant design were treated explicitly to capture uncertainty ranges in LCOE outcomes. Results highlighted where cost reduction efforts would have the greatest impact on commercial viability. The client U.S. Department of Energy The […]

ADI conducted parameterized life‑cycle assessments of major green building assessment systems using hybrid life‑cycle inventory methods and EPA TRACI impact categories. The analysis explicitly modeled construction materials, energy use, and system boundaries to compare LEED, ASHRAE, and IgCC pathways against a baseline commercial building. Sensitivity and uncertainty analyses were used to isolate which building features […]

ADI screened over 20 energy transition opportunities to identify growth areas that leverage the client’s existing subsea engineering and offshore logistics capabilities. Opportunity profiling included a deep dive into the fixed and floating offshore wind segments, specifically targeting substructures and dynamic cable systems. The client Offshore engineering provider The situation Client needed to diversify into […]

ADI assessed a global energy transition capital spend and outlook through 2050, identifying the addressable market for digital technologies. The study analyzed how the shift toward fragmented, low-carbon infrastructure will impact the need for digital integration across intermittent renewables and energy storage systems. Modeling surfaced critical factors that will dictate the pace of digital adoption. […]

ADI assessed how sustainability priorities are influencing actual capital allocation across electric utilities, with a focus on transmission, distribution, and grid digitalization. The work drew on utility‑level benchmarks covering decarbonization targets, resilience investments, and governance structures, supplemented by interviews with sustainability and planning leaders. Emphasis was placed on distinguishing aspirational ESG commitments from areas driving […]
