Consume sparingly

Transparency is the first step toward optimizing energy consumption. Because inefficient building systems and unregulated energy use can make actual energy consumption up to 120% higher than the building design predictions. Only by understanding a building’s energy use, is it possible to curb it. To do this, we combine advanced analytics capabilities with profound domain expertise. Navigator – our energy and sustainability platform – provides key insights into building performance. Our team of experts draw from these insights, and their deep expertise in building operations and energy management to continuously identify, benchmark and prioritize new improvement opportunities.

45% of maintenance efforts are ineffective. Yet inefficient infrastructure and equipment is one of the key reasons buildings use more energy than necessary. By taking a holistic view of a building’s technical infrastructure, its operating requirements and drawing from by audit data, we can help define and implement Facility Improvement Measures (FIMs) in line with energy and sustainability goals plus budget constraints. Comprehensive digital services capabilities also enable ongoing performance optimization.

Certified buildings use between 25% and 45% less energy than standard buildings. Why? Because the certification process provides a robust framework to continually optimize the building’s infrastructure in relation to its occupancy patterns and energy demand. Used in combination with standardized energy management frameworks, green certification stands to improve transparency and governance over efficiency programs, and supports long-term compliance with local and international regulations.

Siemens brings expertise along the entire energy chain, from production to consumption. We can help you strengthen reliability and sustainability with energy production and storage strategies. These will ensure you are equipped to meet your changing energy needs while taking advantage of the opportunities new technologies offer.

Energy cost represents 30% of a building’s operating costs. We can help you to ensure you purchase energy at a competitive price. We leverage supplier relationships forged over 35 years, across a procurement portfolio of 15,000 locations with an annual spend in excess of $15 billion. 

At Siemens, we go beyond energy management and into key building analytics. We know that continuous analyses keep buildings fit for purpose long term, maximize the effectiveness of servicing and upgrading equipment, and help identify improvement opportunities.
