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
Clarion Hotel The Hub was originally built to accommodate the 1952 Winter Olympics, centrally located in Oslo. First known as Hotel Viking, later expanded and renamed as Hotel Royal Christiania. After the last expansion and total renovation, it is currently the largest hotel in Norway. With 810 hotel rooms, 24 conference rooms and a flexible 900 m2 hall, The Hub is perfectly suited for conferences, congresses and other events.
In 610 of the rooms, and all the corridors, lights are controlled by a total of 5200 KNX devices delivered and programmed by function Solutions. The rooms feature fully customizable touch switches and cardless presence detection, enabling automatic and manual control of lights and light scenes. While walking down a corridor, lights will be dimmed up and down, following your position. This is made possible by numerous sensors and DALI groups, and is an efficient way of reducing energy consumption and costs in a 55,000 m2 hotel with 16 floors.
