IES Integration with Revit MEP

Last month Autodesk and IES (Integrated Environmental Solutions) issued a press release announcing that they are "...working together to provide robust building performance analysis capabilities to the Revit platform through a work flow between Autodesk Revit Systems, Autodesk’s BIM design and documentation software for mechanical/electrical/plumbing (MEP) engineering, and the IES software suite. "

This partnership will give Revit MEP the ability to perform "thermal analysis, load calculations, daylight assessment with LEED reporting and solar studies. "

I went to IES's home page and did a search for "Revit", Here is a peak including video's of what IES is doing.

Fasten your seat belts, I think the Revit MEP train is getting ready to depart the station.

Indeed...

I saw this at tech camp this week. What they have done is truly amazing.
