What does our EI Platform and wearable tech have in common?
We like to think of our Energy Intelligence (EI) Platform as a wearable device for buildings. So what does wearable technology and our EI Platform have in common? They might initially seem unrelated, but they share several things in common:
Data Collection: Both systems rely heavily on collecting data. Wearables track metrics like heart rate, steps taken, and sleep patterns, while our Energy Intelligence platform gathers data on energy consumption, sources, and efficiency.
Real-time Monitoring: Both offer real-time feedback. A wearable can notify a user of an elevated heart rate or remind them to stand up after an hour of sitting, while our energy platform can provide you with real-time analytics on power usage and alert you to energy spikes or inefficiencies.
User - Centric: Both are designed with the end-user in mind. Wearables provide information tailored to individuals to help them understand their health and fitness. Our Energy Intelligence Platform offers insights that help users (like business owners, ESG managers, facility managers, or strata managers) optimise energy usage and reduce costs.
Connectivity and Integration: Wearables often connect to other devices or platforms (like smartphones) to process and visualise data. The EI Platforms can integrate with various building management, IoT devices, and other technology solutions to offer a comprehensive view of energy consumption.
Predictive Analytics: Advanced wearables and the EI Platform use predictive analytics to forecast future trends. For wearables, this could be predicting potential health issues based on current data trends. For the EI Platform, it might be predicting future energy usage or inefficiencies based on your historical data.
Adaptive Learning: As they collect more data, both systems can adapt and provide better insights. For instance, a wearable can adjust its fitness suggestions based on your overall progress, while our EI Platform can help you to refine its energy-saving recommendations over time.
Focus on Efficiency: While wearables aim to help users be more efficient in their health and fitness routines, the EI Platform has been designed to increase energy efficiency, reducing waste and costs.
Consumer Empowerment: Both technologies empower consumers with knowledge. Wearables provide you with insights about your health, pushing you to make informed decisions. Similarly, the EI Platform gives you data about your building’s consumption, allowing you to make informed decisions about energy usage now and into the future.
