What the Project Is
ENERGY EFFICIENCY FOR OLD AND MID-SIZE BUILDINGS – a modern solution that brings buildings into the digital age. With pertoIOTA, a smart and digital Building Management System (BMS), every building’s energy systems – heating, ventilation, and more – are controlled automatically using AI. This innovation is designed to save up to 50% of energy consumption and CO2 emissions, making it the ultimate tool to digitalise, decarbonise, and optimise buildings. It’s affordable, standardised, plug & play, and works in every building, opening up scalable paths to refurbish old structures.
Main Benefit
The main benefit of the system is clear: significant energy savings, cost efficiency, and environmental impact reduction, all delivered through an intelligent approach. Key figures and facts include:
- +50 BUILDINGS
- +180,000 SQUARED METERS
- +22% ENERGY SAVINGS
By reducing energy waste and CO2 emissions, this approach not only supports sustainable practices but also delivers immediate savings. The bonus? Turning many traditional, inefficient systems into lean, green, energy-saving machines!
How It Works
Buildings typically consume more energy than required due to poor management and outdated systems. Thanks to the IoT and the power of smart sensors, data from devices such as pumps and temperature sensors is sent straight to the cloud, where pertoIOTA takes control. This brain of the operation analyses the data, continuously monitors the building, and makes automatic adjustments using a blend of scheduling, automation, and artificial intelligence. It’s like giving a building a mind of its own, one that’s keen on reducing waste while keeping everything running smoothly… all in real time.
Key Features
The complete PERTO system offers a variety of strong features that work together to ensure optimal building performance. Some major features include:
- REAL TIME MONITORING: The system constantly monitors building conditions via sensors placed throughout, ensuring the smooth running of heating pumps and temperature sensors. This allows building managers to track performance and the current temperature in each room or zone.
- PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE: With custom-built formulas and regular assessments, the system detects faults in energy systems early on. It alerts managers if maintenance is needed, so issues are resolved before they escalate, ensuring optimal operation and comfort for occupants.
- CONTROLLING: Remote control means that all utilities are managed from anywhere with an internet connection. Adjustments can be made on the fly, ensuring that operating parameters are always just right.
- OPTIMISE: Leveraging a smart scheduler, automation, and AI-driven insights, the system learns and adapts to usage patterns to cut down on energy waste. Customised schedules and automatic power offs during downtime are just a few examples of how it reduces energy consumption and costs.
Steps to Save Energy
Getting started with pertoIOTA is as straightforward as following a three-step process that anyone can relate to:
01. BOOK A DEMO & EVALUATE SAVINGS – Experts will demonstrate the product, showcasing how it works while helping to forecast potential savings for any building. After the demo, evaluating the cost savings becomes a clear, no-fuss decision matter.
02. BRING YOUR BUILDINGS ONLINE – Once the decision to use the system has been made, the setup begins. The building’s systems become interconnected with pertoIOTA to enable remote monitoring and controlling. This integration saves time and simplifies energy management.
03. START SAVING – With the system in place, immediate savings on energy bills can be seen. A user-friendly interface makes it really easy to monitor and control energy usage – turning complex data into actionable insights.
Project Impact
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
- SDG 13: Climate Action
Success Stories
The results speak for themselves. In various success stories, pertoIOTA has already been proven to save energy and reduce CO2 emissions. Buildings that adopted the complete PERTO system experienced energy savings of up to 12% per year, as seen with cases like VICTORIA PARK AB SCHOOL. The ease of digitalisation and predictive maintenance are saving both energy and money in real-world scenarios. It’s a shining example of how a smart, IoT-enabled system can transform everyday buildings into energy efficient marvels. Energy efficiency isn’t just a buzzword – it’s a dynamic reality now, making buildings green, optimised, and more comfortable for everyone involved.
