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

The completed project aims to reduce the energy consumption of 100 schools of the City of Paris. Its originality lies in the deployment of home automation for energy renovation of public buildings. The objective is to ensure user comfort by optimally managing the space temperature throughout the day. Associated with the renovation of the building envelope, the KNX system helps to control occupant comfort (T ° C, CO2,% RH), while ensuring the reduction of energy consumption and emissions of greenhouse gases emissions by 30%..
