Generate energy model

- [Instructor] Okay, the purpose of this short movie is to show you the connection in-between Revit, the energy model that it creates inside Revit, and then how it gets submitted as a simulation of the building, and saved on the Insight Hub cloud-based file. So, we gave it the location, we know that it's Alameda. We're then going to create a model, but that model will be based on whatever the energy settings are. So if I look at the energy settings, you want to use conceptual massing and building elements. That is your best choice going forward. That's the one that I always use. Ground plane is where the ground is, say at level one, if it was a semi-subterranean building, maybe you'd specify a different level so that it knows that the analytical spaces and surfaces are below ground. You can have different phases for your project, we're using new construction. The values here for the analytical space are creating like an analytical grid, points on the surface of the mass from which it…
