This presentation will help design engineers, building owners and operations gain a better understanding of the available “Next Level Up” building management solutions and how they can help our customers achieve their energy and resource goals.
Recent changes in our environment are driving demand for more sustainable, resilient, efficient, and people-centric facilities. We will introduce the importance of decarbonization and how to collect, analyze and visualize data, to help corporations meet their sustainability goals.
We will show several examples to help illustrate decarbonization tracking, energy reporting, predictive maintenance, identifying issues that normally go undetected for years and a customer that achieved NetZero.
Finally, the presenter will examine considerations during the construction process, to increase the chances of operations inheriting a facility that will meet stakeholder’s sustainability and decarbonization goals.
