With each commission, we also consider the customer\u2019s project-specific goals and the most cost-effective options.<\/p>\n

Energy efficiency is reflected in all our operations. The projects apply the latest technology, renewable energy and innovations that have been shown to work in practice. We keep an open mind when creating solutions covering the entire lifespan of a building. The appropriate and efficient use of energy, as well as energy recycling, steer us towards zero-energy construction and properties\u2019 carbon-neutrality goals.<\/p>\n

Smart lighting systems<\/h4>\n

Indoor and outdoor lighting has a significant effect on the safety and functionality of a property and its users\u2019 wellbeing, productivity and energy levels. The best outcome is achieved by integrating energy efficient LED lights to digital control and management systems. Appropriate, AI-based lighting control will also take the amount of daylight into account. Furthermore, the users\u2019 wishes, and the system\u2019s adaptability and lifespan sustainability are always factored in when designing lighting.<\/p>\n

Demand-side and peak load management<\/h4>\n

Power management is increasingly important at a national level, because the use of renewable energy sources is on the rise and there is more fluctuation in the energy generation than before. Demand-side management reduces energy consumption, which saves costs and lowers the CO2<\/sub> emissions. The demand-side management of individual buildings allows the national energy production to be appropriately managed, which in turn reduces the occurrence of peak loads, improves the security of the energy supply and reduces the emissions from power generation.<\/p>\n

Developing local energy solutions<\/h4>\n

We help our customers develop local energy solutions during each step from planning to implementation. The first step is a local energy assessment, with which we compare different implementation options, for example, in terms of their lifecycle costs and climate goals. We also review the possibility of utilising waste and condensate heat, so that energy can be stored and recycled as efficiently as possible.<\/p>\n

Energy efficiency projects<\/h4>\n

When carried out correctly, energy efficiency projects are profitable investments, because they help conserve energy. For example, if a project invests in harvesting waste heat or using renewable energy, it can also effectively reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions. We offer projects our diverse expertise in innovative and smart energy solutions that guarantee energy efficiency and excellent indoor conditions.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n
