Why OVR-VU
The built environment accounts for 37% of global GHG emissions, representing the single greatest contributor to climate change.
In North America alone, 126.49 million buildings must be decarbonized. By 2050, this number will rise to 159.71 million. Despite this, our current rate of annual net-zero renovations is at less than 1%.
The good news is this: over the past 10 years, regulatory changes have finally triggered a tsunami of demand for decarbonization. As a result, broad, high-level decarbonization strategies are ubiquitous, from owners, operators, consultants, and sustainability experts.
"Our current rate of annual net-zero renovations is at
less than 1%."
"Broad, high-level strategies do not decarbonize.
Pre-feasibility
studies do."
By combining the rigor of engineering with the power of software automation, OVR-VU unlocks the market’s transformation towards decarbonization, while supporting built environment stakeholders in
de-risking their projects and maximizing asset value.
OVR-VU produces dynamic pre-feasibility studies that identify optimal scenarios for LCOE, GHG emissions, capital costs, and operational costs, and updates them based on changing market conditions.
We provide built environment stakeholders with an optimized business and energy plan, including decarbonization materials and technologies, for their unique project and organizational objectives.
Through this, built environment stakeholders gain needed access to technical, actionable, streamlined, and bankable renewable energy solutions.
​
These factors present a two-fold problem:
-
Broad, high-level strategies do not decarbonize. Pre-feasibility studies do. To decarbonize the built environment, pre-feasibility studies provide the necessary technical, actionable, and bankable insights to create renewable energy solutions that de-risk and maximize asset value.
-
Available resources and traditional approaches to the delivery of pre-feasibility studies cannot effectively serve the magnitude of the need. Automation is required. To decarbonize the built environment, stakeholders require streamlined access to pre-feasibility studies that unlock speed, efficiency, and scale.

We created OVR-VU to solve these problems.
