Carrier Celebrates 30 Years of its Energy Modeling Software with Customers
Carrier is proud to celebrate the 30th birthday of its Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) with its engineering customers around the world. The celebration commemorates the original launch of HAP and its evolution over the past 30 years. Carrier sales engineers are also sharing their excitement about the future release of HAP version 6.0 software, expected next year.
Introduced in 1987, HAP was among the first hour-by-hour energy modeling tools to run on an engineer’s own desktop computer. Before HAP software was available, energy modeling was accomplished manually or with software tools run on the vendor’s mainframe computer. The original HAP software made energy modeling more affordable, more accessible, and more flexible for engineers.
