Company Overview

Planète GreenLeaves (PGL) — Enabling Climate-Resilient, Human-Centered Cities through Advanced Simulation Planète GreenLeaves (PGL) is a Canadian climate-tech company dedicated to helping cities, planners, and architects design healthier, more sustainable, and climate-resilient urban environments. At the core of our mission is the belief that data-driven decisions are key to mitigating the impacts of climate change and improving the quality of life in cities. Our flagship product, CityDigitalTwin, is a cutting-edge web-based platform that delivers actionable insights into urban microclimate, outdoor thermal comfort, and building energy performance — empowering professionals to plan, design, and adapt urban areas with confidence. Founded by experts in urban microclimate simulation, energy modeling, and sustainable design, PGL bridges the gap between advanced environmental modeling and practical design workflows. Our platform is built to seamlessly integrate into the early stages of planning and design, allowing professionals to test and compare interventions before any physical changes are made. Whether assessing pedestrian wind and thermal comfort conditions, evaluating the effectiveness of cool roofs, green infrastructure, and shading strategies, or estimating energy demand and renewable energy potential, CityDigitalTwin helps teams make smarter, more resilient choices. CityDigitalTwin works with standard 3D models generated in industry-leading tools like Rhino, Revit, and SketchUp, ensuring interoperability and ease of use. Users can quickly upload a 3D site model, select weather and surface parameters, and define scenarios to simulate how design interventions affect outdoor and indoor conditions. The platform provides clear metrics such as the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI), thermal comfort frequency, surface temperatures, energy demand, and carbon emissions — all visualized in intuitive, high-resolution maps and graphs that are easy to interpret and share. We specialize in supporting pre-design and conceptual design phases, where informed decisions have the greatest impact. By providing results in a fraction of the time compared to traditional CFD or manual analyses, we enable teams to iterate on their designs quickly and cost-effectively. PGL’s solutions have been applied in high-profile projects in North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and beyond, including thermal comfort and urban heat island mitigation studies in Boston, Toronto, New York, Phoenix, Singapore, and Riyadh. Beyond technical innovation, PGL is deeply committed to advancing climate adaptation, sustainability, and equity in the built environment. Our platform supports professionals pursuing LEED, WELL, and other green certifications, while also enabling cities to meet policy goals for carbon reduction, heat resilience, and livability. As a small, agile team, we bring both expertise and a collaborative spirit to every engagement. We work closely with clients to understand their unique needs and deliver tailored solutions that align with project goals and budgets. We believe in democratizing access to advanced simulation tools, making them more affordable, intuitive, and impactful for a wider range of practitioners. At Planète GreenLeaves, we see ourselves not just as a software company, but as a trusted partner in the global effort to create cities that are healthier, more resilient, and more sustainable for all. Through our work, we strive to empower professionals to design urban spaces where people and nature can thrive together — today and for generations to come.
