According to the U.S. Department of Energy, over 72% of energy consumption lies in building operations (link). In order to create smarter buildings by monitoring and ultimately reducing energy consumption, a building management system (BMS) should be incorporated.  A BMS is a computerized system that collects and analyzes data and then implements real-time strategies to reduce energy usage by up to 30%. The objective of the BMS is to become a comprehensive control system that pulls information from multiple levels to enhance energy efficiency, comfort and safety for building owners and tenants.  Updating equipment such as lighting, power systems, and ventilation can make the building both financially and environmentally friendly. By enabling immediate load management, the building can optimize energy consumption and avoid interruption in the power supply providing a more reliable and efficient infrastructure.

This meeting will explore the future of energy efficiency in buildings and the role BMS play in this market.

• What are the benefits BMS can bring to a building?
• What does a successful integration involve?
• What projects result in the highest ROI?
• What incentives are utilities providing?
• What barriers exist to BMS adoption?
• How does BMS integrate with demand response?
