Smarter, Safer and More Sustainable Built Environments
Cities and Urbanization. In urban areas, buildings account for up to as 60% of overall carbon emissions. Around 80% of the buildings we have today will exist in 2050, so it is essential for combating climate change that we retrofit them for energy efficiency. - (World Economic Forum 2022)
For some customers, the concept of Carbon Neutrality is a governing priority, but for others, they just want cost savings to their business.
They don't have to be mutually exclusive. You can have a green building that has a substantially lower lifecycle cost!! At SBT we say.....
"Embracing smarter, safer, and more sustainable buildings transforms the way we live and thrive. Integrating cutting-edge technology ensures efficiency and intelligence, creating safer spaces that prioritize the well-being of inhabitants. By championing sustainability, we contribute to a greener future, reducing our environmental footprint. Together, these principles can redefine the way we build, operate and maintain our buildings."
On Average, a Facility Energy Audit by our teams should result in approximately 10-15% Operational Savings from Systematic/operator errors and a further 30-50% in Return on Investment savings opportunities.
Commercial Energy & Sustainability
Prioritizing energy conservation and smart systems for a building offers a range of benefits for the owner. Firstly, it leads to significant cost savings over time. Energy-efficient practices, such as using smart systems to monitor and control energy consumption, can result in lower utility bills and operational expenses.
Moreover, adopting smart systems enhances the overall functionality and efficiency of the building. Automated systems can optimize heating, cooling, lighting, and other processes, ensuring that resources are used intelligently and only when needed. This not only improves the comfort of occupants but also extends the lifespan of equipment by reducing unnecessary wear and tear.
In summary, prioritizing energy conservation and smart systems benefits building owners by reducing costs, improving efficiency, and aligning with the growing demand for sustainable practices.
Industrial Energy & Sustainability
A factory owner should prioritize energy conservation and smart systems for several compelling reasons:
-
Cost Savings: Implementing energy conservation measures and smart systems can significantly reduce utility bills, resulting in substantial cost savings over time.
-
Operational Efficiency: Smart systems enable real-time monitoring and control of various processes within the factory. This leads to improved operational efficiency, reduced downtime, and better overall productivity. Automated systems can optimize equipment usage, schedule maintenance proactively, and streamline production processes.
-
Compliance and Regulations: Many regions have stringent environmental regulations and energy efficiency standards. Prioritizing energy conservation ensures compliance with these regulations, avoiding potential fines and legal issues. It also positions the factory as a responsible and environmentally conscious entity.
-
Enhanced Sustainability Image: Embracing energy conservation and sustainable practices enhances the factory's reputation and demonstrates corporate social responsibility. This can be attractive to customers, investors, and partners who increasingly value environmentally friendly and socially responsible business practices.
-
Employee Morale and Productivity: Creating a more energy-efficient and comfortable working environment positively influences employee morale and productivity. Smart systems can contribute to a healthier and more enjoyable workplace, fostering employee satisfaction and retention.
In conclusion, prioritizing energy conservation and implementing smart systems in a factory not only brings immediate financial benefits but also positions the business strategically in a changing economic and environmental landscape. It improves operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and the overall sustainability of the factory, leading to long-term success.
Hotels, Resorts & Hospitals - Energy & Sustainability
Covid was brutal to the Hotel, Resort and Hospital Segment.
As our colleagues in this area emerge from years of lost revenue, the damage of lack of maintenance and lost skills of operational and engineering teams really emerge.
At Smart Build Tech, we have the skills and experience to immediately step in and assist with getting back on your feet and using this opportunity to effectively upgrade and certify your sites to be truly efficient, safer and more resilient against future pandemics and more secure.
Data Centre Efficiency & Sustainability
In the realm of data centers, the twin objectives of efficiency and sustainability form the cornerstone of operational excellence. By implementing cutting-edge technologies like advanced cooling systems and virtualization techniques, data centers can optimize resource utilization and minimize energy consumption, thus enhancing efficiency.
Simultaneously, a commitment to sustainability involves incorporating eco-friendly materials, adopting recycling programs, and harnessing renewable energy sources, aligning data center operations with environmentally conscious practices. The synergy between efficiency and sustainability not only ensures the seamless delivery of computing power but also positions data centers as pivotal players in building a greener and more responsible digital infrastructure for the future.
