Understanding Continuous Building Systems Commissioning
Posted by Brian Thumann on
Explore the Energy Savings, Operational Improvements, and Uptime Benefits Continuous Building Systems Commissioning refers to the ongoing process of monitoring, evaluating, and optimizing building systems to ensure energy efficiency and operational performance. Unlike traditional commissioning, which focuses on ensuring equipment works as designed at post-installation, continuous building systems commissioning is a proactive, ongoing data driven approach aimed at improving performance over the entire lifespan of a building. The essence of continuous building systems commissioning lies in its frequentative process, where anomalies or inefficiencies are identified, investigated, and resolved continuously - thereby maintaining and enhancing the building's energy efficiency profile and...

How a Building’s Digital Twin Combined with AI Can Improve Efficiency, Security & Performance
Posted by Brian Thumann on
A building's digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical building that can be used to simulate and analyze the building's performance in various scenarios. Digital twins use data from sensors, building management systems, and other sources to accurately represent the building's characteristics, such as its layout, systems, and materials. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to help manage a building's digital twin by analyzing the data from the digital twin and identifying opportunities to increase energy efficiency, optimize systems performance, and improve building occupancy comfort. For example, AI algorithms can be used to analyze the data from a...
