Stirling and Clackmannashire councils are using a digital twin of their regions to help meet their net zero targets.

Supermarket chain Morrisons is using digital twin technology to decarbonise its 4,500 sq m food production facility in Winsford, Cheshire.

The University of Liverpool has made a five-figure operational cost saving thanks to using a digital twin as part of a refurbishment project.

From digital twins to digital shadows, and now sleeping digital twins! The latter is a theory, being advanced by net-zero technology specialist IES, that posits that dormant 3D design, compliance and BIM models can be evolved into performance digital twins to drive down carbon.

Digital twins of three buildings at the University of Glasgow have been used to assess how compliance models can be used to improve building performance.

To meet environmental targets, we need a retrofit revolution. To empower that revolution, we must use digital twins, argues Ian Pyburn at IES.
