Questions? We have answers.
Autodesk Forma Carbon Insights helps teams analyze and reduce carbon from early through detailed design. It is used for carbon analysis of designs in Revit and Forma Building Design, and enables earlier, consistent, and collaborative low-carbon decision-making across the project lifecycle.
Forma Carbon Insights is Autodesk's carbon analysis solution for architects, engineers, and sustainability professionals, designed to be easy to use for beginners and flexible for advanced needs. It integrates into design workflows to help teams analyze carbon, optimize performance, and make informed decisions from early design through detailed development.
Architects, MEP engineers, and sustainability professionals can use it to evaluate impacts, connect data across tools, and align teams with consistent insights and reporting.
Yes, Forma Carbon Insights is the next evolution of Autodesk Insight with enhanced capabilities, including a cloud-based workflow, collaborative insights, and integration with Forma Building Design. Users still start their models in Revit without needing to rework or model in a separate tool.
Forma Carbon Insights (formerly Insight) is included at no extra cost with Revit, the AEC Collection, or Forma for Buildings.
In Revit, go to the Analyze tab to run an energy and carbon analysis. You can then view your results in the cloud-based Forma Carbon Insights dashboards through your Autodesk account.
In Forma Building Design, run a carbon analysis to generate embodied, operational, and total carbon results directly in the app. From there, you can open your projects in Forma Carbon Insights for deeper analysis and more customization options. Learn more on how to get started in Forma Building Design here.
Note: Forma Carbon Insights is currently available for FDM Hubs located in the US.
Autodesk Forma Carbon Insights doesn’t have standalone pricing and is included at no added cost with a Revit, AEC Collection, or Forma Building Design subscription.
Forma Carbon Insights is available directly from Revit. Generate an Energy Analytical Model (EAM) from your Revit model and use Forma Carbon Insights to run a detailed embodied, operational, and total carbon analysis powered by real BIM data. There, you can explore detailed carbon and energy analysis, optimize design trade-offs, and track key sustainability metrics. You can also use customizable dashboards to visualize options and clearly communicate outcomes with clients.
Forma Carbon Insights powers total carbon analysis in both Forma Building Design and Revit. In Forma Building Design, analysis is directly in-app for early-stage decision-making. In Revit, you can access the same total carbon analysis after uploading your energy analytical model to the cloud. Across both workflows, the same metrics and factors ensure consistent results. In Forma Carbon Insights, teams access a more advanced experience: deeper transparency, greater customization, advanced configuration, and shareable, collaborative dashboards.
Forma Carbon Insights provides a total carbon analysis, including embodied and operational carbon. Embodied carbon includes emissions generated from extraction and processing of building materials.* Operational carbon includes emissions from energy through a building's operations.**
