Detailed Description
Energy Efficiency
The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation
Innovation
Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description
American school of classical studies - Gennadius Library is one of the classical buildings of Athens. The renovation of the library requires to preserve the style and fit the modern technology. The multipurpose space requires adaptation to various needs. The space is used also for art exhibitions, presentations and happenings. Lighting has to adapt to the various layouts, thus addressable system chosen. A/C control is important to be accurately controlled because it has to cover different loads. Humidity and temperature are important for art exhibits while the thermal load changes dramatically when many people entering the space. Luminaries can be accessed in a multidimensional manner to serve the purpose of an opening.
