Building Analytics – the Future!

So why now? Surely energy and CO2 emissions have been on the radar for just as long, if not longer; energy costs are rising and budgets are shrinking? The simple answer is technology has changed. Computers are more powerful, internet speeds are going through the roof and memory & storage capacities are at levels unimagined just 5 years ago. This leap in technology is exactly what makes building analytics possible and practical today, allowing us to process and interpret vast amounts of building performance data in real time.

Incidentally, did you know that when Apollo 11 landed on the moon, its computers had the memory capacity of your average credit card!

Why Now?

Energy and carbon have been on the radar for years. So why is analytics becoming the buzzword now?

The short answer: technology has finally caught up with ambition.

• Computers are faster
• Internet speeds are soaring
• Cloud storage is abundant
• And the volume of available data has exploded

We’re living in the era of big data, and buildings are one of its richest sources. Every fan speed, every valve position, every temperature reading is a chance to make smarter decisions.

What Is Building Analytics — and Why Should You Care?

Unlike traditional monitoring tools that simply tell you something’s wrong, building analytics tells you why it’s wrong, what it’s costing you, and what to fix first.

Imagine your air handling unit is wasting heat. Your analytics system detects the issue, calculates the energy loss, and assigns it a priority level. No guesswork. Just clear action.

It’s not just dashboards. It’s not just fault alerts. It’s real-time performance analysis that helps you:

• Cut waste
• Prioritise maintenance
• Stretch tight budgets
• Hit ESG goals with confidence
