As Energy Management becomes more important for businesses of any kind, understanding the various technologies that drive energy management is an important step to get started. These technologies not only help in optimising energy use but also play a significant role in reducing costs and enhancing sustainability.
We have recorded a webinar to demonstrate how monitoring energy can be easy and can deliver results in an easy and smooth manner.
The growing importance of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting has made energy management a critical focus for companies worldwide. As businesses strive to meet environmental regulations and societal expectations, the need for transparent and robust ESG metrics is growing.
Energy management plays a pivotal role within ESG reporting, particularly in the environmental domain. Energy management systems can significantly reduce energy consumption and costs, aligning with sustainability goals and enhancing a company’s environmental footprint. However, integrating energy management with ESG reporting poses challenges, including data complexity, corporate structure, and technological integration.
Despite these challenges, the benefits of combining energy management and ESG reporting are substantial. Companies can track and reduce energy consumption, improve their environmental impact, and mitigate risks. Industry trends show a growing reliance on digital tools and experienced partners to support these initiatives, underscoring the need for comprehensive energy management strategies in achieving ESG objectives.
Recent findings from the yearly State of Energy Management survey indicate that 19% of respondents struggle with identifying the right technologies for their energy management needs. To address some of those struggles, we have invited IoT infrastructure firm EpiSensor to provide some insights based on their 15 years of experience researching, designing, and manufacturing IoT solutions for energy management.
In this article, we aim to demystify the technology selection process by outlining the 10 key considerations when choosing energy monitoring hardware.
Energy Management is not new for Real Estate but it has gained importance over the last few years. The growing importance of sustainability and energy efficiency have made them areas you cannot avoid.
To discuss the growing importance of Energy Management and efficiency in Real Estate and how you can tackle them, we have a webinar recording for you.
Proptech, the integration of property and technology, is a huge trend in property management. It refers to technology used by real estate professionals or property managers to manage their facilities on a day to day basis and gain operational efficiency.
That definition is as broad as it’s realistic. That’s because managing a building entails a large number of actions, and so do the technologies developed to help with those tasks. We could say one of the main reasons why proptech solutions have grown rapidly is because they help tackle key problems by saving time, avoiding repetitive tasks and automating processes.
In this article we’ll take a look at proptech solutions, what they mean for energy management and the role of AI.
Are your hospital energy bills too high? Improving energy efficiency in hospitals goes beyond simple cost savings and touches directly on better patient outcomes and environmental stewardship. When you focus on energy management you’re not only reducing your operational expenses but also significantly decreasing your carbon footprint. This commitment reflects positively on you as a healthcare provider, showing a dedication to both patient care and environmental responsibility.
Besides, energy-efficient hospitals offer a healthier indoor environment for both patients and staff. By implementing measures that enhance energy efficiency, such as improved ventilation systems or energy-saving lighting, you can ensure cleaner air and a more comfortable setting. This directly contributes to patient wellbeing and staff comfort, improving overall health outcomes. The move towards energy efficiency in healthcare settings is a clear win-win, aligning cost saving with enhanced patient care and environmental benefits. Let’s see more in this article.

They offer services to clients in various industries, including the agri-food, industrial and chemical sectors. These are all sectors with a very important technical component, requiring very specific expertise and services.
In this Spotlight interview we talk to Cunovesa to find out more about their projects, their plans for the future and their relationship with energy efficiency.
The UK is firmly committed to achieving net-zero emissions by the year 2050. This ambitious goal necessitates significant efforts to minimize greenhouse gas emissions and offset any remaining emissions through carbon mitigation and absorption measures.
As a facilities manager or owner, it’s crucial to recognize the direct impact of this framework on your operations. Staying abreast of available options and solutions is essential for maximizing facility performance while simultaneously reducing emissions.
In our previous article, we explored some of the benefits of Smart Buildings. Today, we delve into the current state of the country’s net-zero efforts, the path ahead, and strategies that organisations can employ to reach this pivotal goal through their building infrastructure.
Let’s delve into it!
Conventional buildings aren’t very efficient. Often, the only way to monitor conditions is to wander up and down corridors, peeking into offices. Temperature monitoring usually involves manually adjusting the air conditioning or opening windows to regulate humidity and airflow.
There’s no way to see where and when you use the most energy. It’s hard to adjust conditions when more visitors or fewer workers are in the building. Waste, it seems, is inevitable, and it’s impossible to make significant savings a reality.
In contrast, a smart building uses advanced technologies to control the environment and improve efficiency.
In recent years, a significant shift has been observed in the travel industry, with a growing number of travellers choosing environmentally friendly options.
This trend is largely driven by a raising awareness of environmental issues and a collective desire to contribute towards sustainability. Hotels and resorts that prioritise energy efficiency are increasingly favoured by environmentally conscious guests.
In this article, we will uncover the impact of energy efficiency on guest satisfaction. We will also discover 2 case studies that will showcase how your building could achieve big energy efficiency improvements. Delving deeper, we’ll explore the top 3 energy consumers in hotels… And more!
As you may have already seen during these weeks, our Energy Management Report has been recently published. With this, we have broken down the analysis by examining perspectives based on the type of organisation. Today it’s the turn of companies in the tertiary sector.
In the 2023 Energy Survey, we had the honour of receiving insights from professionals representing a diversity of roles, companies, and sectors within the industry. Although the majority of responses come from energy companies such as Energy Service Companies, retailers, renewable energy firms, or hardware manufacturers, we have also received responses from non-energy related companies.
We refer to these organisations as the Tertiary industry. In 2023, 25% of the participants come from sectors as diverse as real estate, industrial, financial, tourism, educational, public administration, or logistics.
Utilities are a key player with which almost all individuals or companies must interact. Organizations require energy to carry out their business activities, and therefore seek out the utilities that provide the best service.
In last week’s article, we delved into the context of Energy Service Companies, examining their challenges, priorities, and trends. Today, we shift the focus to utilities. Interested in uncovering the current market dynamics in the UK and understanding the pivotal role played by utilities in promoting energy efficiency? If so, continue reading for insightful details.
If you are part of a utility, this article may address several of the challenges you face in your day-to-day operations. You can compare the points discussed with your own experience. Do you find any similarities?
