EcoMate can provide 30 % energy savings at 0 % risk

GF Building Flow Solutions’ new business model EcoMate is a 24/7 heat source management, combining intelligent software and IoT sensors upgrading buildings to save 30 % energy. The majority of older buildings are equipped with fossil heating systems with high energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

Real estate value quickly becomes a financial risk when building emissions are not in line with new rules and regulations. Available energy monitoring and optimization solutions are normally linked to high entry and running cost. With EcoMate, targeting light commercial buildings, we want to lower this entry barrier. No hardware investment will be needed as sensors and software are provided. Savings are achieved through weather forecasting and real-time building occupancy insights, monitored via energy usage patterns. The solution is brought to the market with a contracting service fee based on shared cost savings.

Launching EcoMate at ISH with focus on Germany, we look forward to further develop the concept in partnership with real estate and asset managers, as well as building owners.
