Automated Building Energy Optimization

Automated Building Energy Optimization refers to software that continuously monitors and controls building systems—primarily HVAC, but also lighting and other services—to minimize energy use and operating costs while maintaining occupant comfort. It ingests high‑frequency data from building management systems, sensors, and meters, detects inefficiencies or faults, and automatically adjusts setpoints, schedules, and control strategies in real time. This matters because commercial and residential buildings are major drivers of both operating expenses and carbon emissions, yet are often tuned manually, infrequently audited, and operated far from optimal performance. By using data‑driven models and control logic hosted in the cloud, these applications reduce energy consumption, cut utility bills, lower emissions, and decrease reliance on manual engineering work. They also surface maintenance issues earlier, improving reliability and extending equipment life.
