Smart Home & Home Energy Management

The future of modern living

Smart heating control

Smart home and home energy management systems are innovative technologies that are fundamentally changing the way we use buildings and energy. Intelligent control systems and automatic processes can bring about a significant reduction in energy consumption. Thus, a recent study by the International Energy Agency (IEA) published in 2023 shows that smart-home technologies are able to reduce energy consumption by as much as 25 percent. These systems not only improve the quality of life through customised comfort functions and security solutions but also make a significant contribution to the creation of sustainable living conditions. 

By integrating renewable energies and the more efficient use of energy, such systems can help reduce CO2 emissions and our dependence on fossil fuels, which will promote a more environmentally friendly and economical way of life in the long run. 

Smart Home: networked living

Intelligent smart-home environments create a seamless ecosystem of connected devices and systems that communicate with each other to enhance levels of comfort, security and energy efficiency. Advanced control systems for heating, air conditioning, ventilation, shading, lighting, security and access control, as well as data analysis tools, allow users to customise and optimise their living environment. Smart heating systems, for example, provide precise control of room temperatures, while smart air-conditioning technology ensures that indoor air is always maintained at a comfortable temperature. 

Home Energy Management: efficient energy usage

The basis of modern smart home systems, a home energy management system (HEMS), monitors, controls and optimises energy consumption in real time by continuously analysing data and making decisions that minimise energy consumption. The integration of renewable energy, such as solar panels, is an essential part of HEMS and helps to reduce dependence on external energy networks and cut energy costs. With intelligent controls for heating, air conditioning and lighting systems, HEMS ensures efficient use is made of all sources of energy in the home.

Smart Heating: intelligent heating solutions for every home

Smart heating systems are the cornerstone of many smart home installations. Thanks to the precise control of heating, ventilation and air conditioning, energy consumption and heating costs can be reduced significantly while increasing the level of comfort. Modern smart heating-control systems use advanced algorithms to adjust the heating output on the basis of current weather conditions, patterns of use and individual preferences. In the case of hybrid heating systems, smart systems automatically control the system to ensure that the most economical energy source is always used.

Smart ventilation and air-conditioning technology: flexibility and efficiency for optimum indoor air quality

Smart ventilation and air conditioning systems are energy efficient and make buildings more comfortable to work and live in. Modern systems use AI and IoT to monitor air quality in real time and improve it automatically. By adapting to weather conditions and individual requirements, they can reduce energy consumption and improve the indoor climate. With solutions that incorporate renewable energies, these systems prioritise sustainability and further reduce CO2 emissions.
