Leading the Charge in Building Decarbonization.

Expert Insights, Solutions, and Innovations for a Sustainable Future in the Built Environment

By demonstrating economic feasibility, we pave the way for large-scale decarbonization.

To achieve a carbon-neutral future, we prioritize reducing building energy demands through advanced energy efficiency measures. Once minimized, we address the remaining energy needs with renewable sources. Our methodology—rooted in precise calculations and simulation-based analysis—delivers a comprehensive understanding of a building’s energy performance. This data-driven approach ensures the development of tailored, cost-effective strategies.

Decarbonization Approach

Develop your roadmap to Net-Zero focusing on actionable strategies and financial planning that deliver economic benefits through cost savings, efficiency improvements, and sustainable long-term value.

Audit

Evaluate existing systems to assess current performance, develop equipment schedules for efficient upgrades, create a 3D model for precise visualization, conduct thermal building simulations and heat loss calculations, perform energy modeling to optimize energy use, identify and evaluate energy conservation measures, calculate emissions and energy savings for measurable impact, and ensure LL97 compliance for regulatory alignment.

Design

Develop conceptual pre-designs to outline the project scope, make precise equipment selections for optimal performance, prepare a comprehensive bill of quantities for accurate budgeting, manage the tendering process for seamless procurement, and deliver detailed design and shop drawings for flawless execution.

Implementation & Finance

Develop a clear implementation strategy for smooth execution, create detailed project phasing to ensure timely progress, provide holistic costing for comprehensive budget management, navigate local, state, and federal incentive management for optimal funding, and design tailored finance and business models to support project goals.

Over 65 Years of Global Building Design Experience

Based in Germany and New York City, RUHL specializes in MEP engineering and consulting to create energy-efficient, fossil-free projects powered by renewables. With over 65 years of global experience across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, RUHL is at the forefront of sustainable design.

In 2022, we proudly contributed to the NYSERDA Empire Building Challenge with a groundbreaking steam-to-heat-pump retrofit for a NYC high-rise.
