Revolutionise building energy systems within older buildings.
With new-build developments off the agenda, it seems that the route towards a low-carbon Britain hinges on cutting carbon emissions by transforming existing building stock. Government advisory body, The Carbon Trust, estimates that 60% of the buildings that will be standing in 2050 have already been built. What’s more, nearly half of these buildings were constructed before 1985, which is when the energy-efficiency requirements of Part L were introduced. A substantial amount of energy can also be wasted as a result of out-dated building control systems.
Without the ability to closely monitor energy use across an entire site, in order to identify and target any energy leaks and anomalies, an organisation is left open to massive energy wastage. Investigations by leading consultancies, TNO, Senternovem and ISSO, have revealed that energy consumption in buildings is, on average, 25% higher than should be and this is largely because of incorrect climate-system settings. In a staggering 70% of buildings, the climate systems do not work at an optimum level.
