The new building for the Minden Campus of Bielefeld Technical College is a pioneering project for two reasons: It integrates cutting-edge energy and automation technology, and is also a prime example of cross-discipline, integrated construction. Due to close collaboration, the designers and building trades reached a precise target in quality and costs.

Old works of art require a stable room climate. To optimally maintain them, the correct temperature and humidity must be fastidiously observed. This applies in particular when temporary exhibits are displayed with loaned pieces, because no one will provide art works if they are not assured that they will be returned in the original state. Therefore, in the course of substantial modernization work at the Oldenburg Augusteum, an indoor air system including individual room monitoring was installed, controlled using the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750. This automated solution guarantees optimal conditions and additionally helps with energy savings. Narrow spatial relationships and monument protection requirements provided challenges for the planners.

The Hotel Meliá Castilla is considered one of the most beautiful hotels in Madrid.

Recently, the Spanish system integrator ALTARE Energía completed a modernization program for the heating system, together with WAGO.

Heat pumps for heating or cooling buildings usually draw their energy from geothermal probes or earth collectors. The building technology company leitec® took a different path: an ice energy store provides the necessary energy. WAGO technology controls the interplay between the system and the entire building automation.
