• To advise developers on appropriate responses to the various energy policies under the climate change agenda
• To asses combination of L&ZC technologies and the effects of gradual tightening of policy against project phasing towards Zero Carbon
• To overcome the barriers to energy technology implementation at the preliminary feasibility stage.

OriginalityWhat is D.I.E.G.O.Tool
• In summary the tool is:
– An options appraisal tool that generates best energy strategy for multiple buildings or multi-phased masterplans
– Designed to provide energy strategy before individual building designs have developed beyond accommodation schedules
– Typically deployed as part of outline planning stage
– Very well suited to phased developments
– Helps engineers understand scope, cross-sell services, and avoid scope-creep

• The model was designed with standardisation and robustness in mind.
• A 5 step standard analysis procedure is used to evaluate
– the energy production,
– pre-sizing and carbon dioxide emission
– reductions for various types of proposed energy efficient and
– renewable energy technologies.

• Energy project developers, investors, and financers continually grapple with questions like “How accurate are the estimates of carbon costs and energy savings in a EOA?”
• EOA faces with two conflicting requirements:

case funding cannot be secured, or in case the
project proves to be uneconomic when compared with other energy options.
Spend additional money and time on engineering to more clearly delineate
potential project costs and to more precisely estimate
the amount of energy produced or saved

• The usual procedure for tackling this dilemma is to advance the project through several steps. At the completion of each step, a “go/no-go” decision is usually made by the project developer as to whether to proceed to the next step of the development process.

• MMG’s ability to provide clients with high quality, low-cost pre-feasibility and feasibility studies is critical to helping them achieve cost and risk certainty, by “screening out” projects that do not make financial sense.

Value to MMG’s Business
• In this regard the D.I.E.G.O. Tool, which can be used to prepare both pre-feasibility and feasibility analysis, specifically addresses these issues by providing quick and valid results at low cost, on which “go/no-go” decisions can be made.

Value to MMG’s Business
• The Sustainability Masterplanning team have used the resulting tool in every sustainability masterplanning project on its books since the tool's creation.
• Use of the tool on the South Shields project for Turner and Townsend enabled the Sheffield project team to complete the energy strategy commission well within the budget.
• The tool was included in the Newcastle Science Central bid as one of our USP’s, and we subsequently won the next project phase over the incumbent engineers, Arup.
• The tool has contributed to the fact that we are one of the preferred consultants for the well known developer Crest Nicholson, from whom BFL had £600k of turnover since 2005.

• CIBSE- currently being considered as the basis for an industry wide LZC technology toolkit
• Leading edge in the market – there are no proprietary tools on the market that even come close to the level of analysis made possible by the D.I.E.G.O. Tool.
• BIM - can be adopted as part of the integrated multidisciplinary technologies used to produce a BIM. In fact, it generates information such as the energy-carbon life cycle which represents one of the essential quantities encompassed by BIM.
