Consulting and Assistance in Smart Energy
EMBIX’s consulting services dive deep into the technical and economic feasibility of energy projects. Their consultants bring a wealth of expertise in energy systems and governance, helping clients navigate an ever-evolving regulatory landscape. The focus is on promoting renewable energy production in urban areas—think solar, cogeneration, geothermal—and on local energy management strategies like self-consumption, heat networks, microgrids, and energy communities. It’s about making sure energy projects are not just ambitious but operational and sustainable.
Smart Building Solutions
Smart buildings are the future, and EMBIX is right there helping clients define and implement the right technological solutions. The approach is strategic, technical, and financial, ensuring that systems for energy management, comfort, security, and more are seamlessly integrated. The goal? Buildings that are high-performing, sustainable, and adaptable to changing needs. It’s about creating spaces that work smarter, not harder.
Performance Monitoring and Software Innovation
One of the standout features of the project is EMBIX’s development of cutting-edge software tools. These tools collect real-time data from energy projects, then calculate, visualize, and analyze performance metrics. Implemented before project acceptance, they validate that energy systems function properly. But it doesn’t stop there—automation allows for continuous monitoring over years, detecting malfunctions early and promoting sustainable operation. It’s a game-changer for maintaining energy commitments long-term.
Project Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy – promoting renewable energy and efficient energy management.
- SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure – fostering innovative energy solutions and smart infrastructure.
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities – developing smart, resilient, and sustainable urban districts.
- SDG 13: Climate Action – contributing to energy transition and reducing environmental impact.
- SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals – collaborating with diverse stakeholders for impactful urban projects.
Collaboration and Ongoing Support
Throughout the life of the district, EMBIX acts as a trusted third party, ensuring that energy performance objectives are not just set but met. Their role evolves from energy and digital AMO during design, to commissioning agent during construction, and finally to performance monitoring operator during operation. This continuous involvement guarantees that projects remain on track, systems function as intended, and sustainability goals are achieved. It’s a partnership that lasts, supporting innovation and commitment every step of the way.
