Improvements in energyPRO 5.0

Written by EMD | Jul 7, 2025 7:44:01 AM

We are excited to announce the release of a new service pack for energyPRO 5.0. This update introduces several important enhancements—especially for hydraulic transmissions.

What is new

  • In addition to hydraulic settings for heat transmissions, it is now possible
    to configure hydraulic transmissions for cooling and process heat.

  • As with heat transmissions, you can define flow and return temperatures at 
    the sites, along with pipe length, diameter, and other relevant transmission parameters.
  • Combine standard and hydraulic transmissions in the same model. You simply select the transmission type for each connection.
  • Water properties vary with temperature, and we’ve updated the friction factor calculation for greater accuracy.

Other improvements

  • We have integrated the latest version of the HiGHS MILP solver (v1.11) for improved optimization.

  • The bar chart visualization supports stacked bars as percentages—a helpful feature for clearer data insights.

  • This update also includes a number of bug fixes to improve overall stability and performance.
