In our white paper “Smart Building – Intelligent Networking in Buildings,” you’ll learn what distinguishes smart buildings and what technologies and methods they require.
What is a Smart Building?
A “smart building” describes the automation and central operation of technical equipment in commercial buildings, like office buildings, airports, shopping malls, or manufacturing facilities. Both security and optimized energy efficiency are fundamental issues that smart buildings address. Current projects demonstrate that automation can reduce the energy consumption of an office building by up to one third.
