A Technical Overview of Optimizing Thermal Energy Management in Buildings
In this presentation, Scott Reed will lead us through the changing landscape of energy management in buildings. We will discuss the latest thermal energy meters from Belimo, examine current trends, and review the features and benefits of these new products. Through the examination of twenty years of progress, we will explore how systems have evolved and become more efficient in their performance, transparency, and cost.
Introduction to Thermal Energy Management
The trend in energy management processes has significantly shifted over the past few decades. Initially, little attention was paid to energy efficiency and the only focus was on keeping a space warm or cool. Nowadays, with the rising cost of energy, it is important to prioritize energy performance and transparency. To do so, systems are carefully constructed with a variety of components – like temperature sensors, flow sensors, and building management systems – to monitor and control energy usage.
Trends in Energy Management Processes
Recent advancements have led to an increased demand for seamless integration and key performance indicators in energy management systems. Integrating these components has allowed for more accurate monitoring and insights into energy usage. This has resulted in improved operational costs, energy savings, and enhanced energy performance. Additionally, such systems enable higher levels of digital convergence and maximize a facility’s potential.
Benefits of Thermal Energy Meters
Belimo’s thermal energy meters address the need for smarter energy monitoring systems. The main features and benefits include:
