Monitoring and controlling building systems: greater efficiency and better performance for your building
Building systems monitoring is the starting point for anyone who wants to manage a space efficiently, sustainably and safely. Whether it’s an office, a shopping centre, a school, a hospital or an industrial complex, the underlying question is always the same: do you really know what’s happening, day after day, inside your building? In most […]
What you don’t measure, you’re paying for
The gap between what a company claims about its buildings and what those buildings actually do. Sustainability is a word that’s been used everywhere so often it’s lost nearly all its weight. Yet it says something simple: sustainable is what sustains itself over time, without consuming the conditions that make it possible. Almost every company […]
From raw data to insight: why environmental and energy historical data is a strategic asset for buildings
A single CO₂ reading taken right now tells you very little. Compare that same reading with yesterday’s figure, last week’s, and the same day a year ago, and an entirely different story emerges. This is the fundamental difference at the heart of building environmental data monitoring: an isolated value describes a moment; a historical dataset […]
From monitoring to control: when environmental data drives HVAC systems
An empty building consumes almost as much energy as a fully occupied one. The HVAC system doesn’t know the difference: it follows schedules, not reality. Pre-programmed timers, fixed setpoints, constant ventilation rates, an approach that worked when everyone arrived at 9 a.m. and left at 6 p.m., every day, at the same time. Today, workplaces […]
Reducing energy consumption: how IoT and data analytics make a difference
We hear more and more about the impact of emissions on our planet. Reducing energy consumption is not just a corporate responsibility, it starts with individuals as well. For modern organizations, this is no longer just a matter of cost control; it has become a strategic priority. According to the 2025 edition of the World […]
People & Smart Buildings: how data truly enhances people’s well-being
Smart Buildings, people-centricity, and a data-driven approach lie at the heart of designing intelligent buildings focused on occupants’ wellbeing. Environmental data and space-usage information have a tangible impact on comfort, health, and productivity. At the same time, however, data alone is not enough if the necessary tools to interpret it and translate it into practical […]
Environmental KPIs in buildings: which indicators really matter and why
Today, environmental sustainability in buildings can no longer rely on good intentions alone. To properly assess performance, well-being, and efficiency, organisations need to measure impact in a concrete, continuous, and reliable way. This is where environmental KPIs in buildings come into play. KPI stands for Key Performance Indicators. These indicators track the most relevant environmental […]
How to reduce energy consumption through IoT and data analytics
In recent years, reducing energy consumption in buildings has become one of the most pressing priorities for companies and institutions that utilize their workspaces daily. Rising energy costs, the need to cut CO₂ emissions, and the drive toward tangible sustainability models are reshaping the way organizations design, use, and enhance their environments. In this context, […]
BMS: what it is and how to add IoT sensors to an existing system
Integrating IoT Data into BMS to Maximixe Efficiency and Sustainability In recent years, building management has evolved rapidly. Regulatory pressure, ESG goals, and the increasing need to reduce operating costs have pushed companies and public institutions to invest in smart systems, environmental sensors, and IoT solutions. The problem? In many cases, these devices collect valuable […]
How to reduce Energy Consumption with IoT and Data Analysis
Reducing energy consumption is no longer just an economic necessity—it’s a strategic priority for businesses. Rising energy costs and growing attention to environmental sustainability are driving companies and institutions to seek smart solutions to optimize the use of energy resources, such as electricity, water, and gas. In this context, the Internet of Things (IoT) has […]
