Las Arenas Shopping Center in Barcelona is more than just an iconic landmark\u2014it\u2019s a bustling hub with over 100 shops<\/strong>, 10 million visitors annually<\/strong>, and more than 106,000 square meters<\/strong> of retail space. But managing energy consumption across such a vast and complex facility posed a serious operational challenge.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MERLIN Properties, the real estate giant behind Las Arenas, needed a smarter way to monitor utilities, reduce inefficiencies, and streamline operations. The solution came from Spacewell Energy\u2019s Partner JustaEnergia. <\/strong>Here\u2019s how, together, they transformed energy performance with a tech-driven approach to Energy Management Systems (EMS).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Challenge: Manual Energy Readings and Inconsistent Data<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each shop and establishment within the shopping center has its own policies in relation to the brand, its values and sustainability. In this case, the energy challenge was to manage and collect consumption from more than 100 locations<\/strong> to process the bills.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water meter readings for these shops were a problem, as the connections were not working properly and had to be done manually each month, one by one.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this reason, Las Arenas sought a solution to speed up the metering of the meters and improve their energy efficiency.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more than 100 utility meters across shops, water systems, HVAC, and shared services, the facility management team had to read each one manually, store by store, every month<\/strong>. These manual readings were:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
