Energy Efficiency
Remote operations center delivers energy savings
Facilities and energy management can be a reactive line of work. Maintenance teams are often chasing after hot/cold calls, control overrides, or utility bill increases and asked to manage more area with fewer staff.
Smart energy for smart buildings
By using kinetic, solar or thermal energy for switches, energy can be saved in buildings
Converting commitments into canceling carbon
With building operations, materials, and construction contributing almost 40% of global annual CO2 emissions, we who create the built environment are at the heart of taming the emissions of its legacy and future.
