FMJ Facilities Management magazine providing industry-specific intelligence to FM and property professionals
The Nemetschek Group, a leading global provider of software for the digital transformation in the construction and media industries, is driving a more sustainable building management. It is responding to the energy crisis with the solution Spacewell Energy (Dexma), enabling the energy-efficient operation of facilities and helping companies save operational costs and increase revenues.
“The need to reduce energy consumption is becoming increasingly acute, accelerating the growth dynamic of energy performance tools. This is particularly relevant for real estate, industrial and retail companies who are now fully committed to monitoring and managing their energy consumption, a source of significant savings”, explains Joan Pinyol CEO of Spacewell Energy / Dexma.
With Spacewell Energy, companies can leverage automated energy data management solutions to minimise the energy consumption in their facilities. The use of energy can be reduced by up to 20 per cent. This does not only help companies minimise their carbon footprint but also saves money – an important side effect in the light of the energy crisis and exploding prices.
“Spacewell and the Spacewell Energy platform (Dexma) are powerful tools for companies to take the next step towards more energy efficiency. Companies need to be able to control energy costs closely”, says César Flores Rodríguez, Chief Division Officer Operate & Manage | Digital Twin at the Nemetschek Group. “With the help of our smart, digital solutions, they can cut down their operational costs, whilst at the same time operating their facilities more sustainably. For us, the two challenges of sustainability and energy efficiency go hand in hand”, he adds. The efficient use of energy is cutting operational and productivity costs, thus increasing profitability. Also, companies increase their attractivity towards customers by becoming more sustainable.
Spacewell Energy (Dexma) provides data-driven Energy Intelligence through a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution. It reports the energy consumption, analyses usage patterns as well as inefficiencies, and detects anomalies in real time. With the help of lifecycle data, artificial intelligence and digital solutions that simplify or automate key operational processes, buildings can be managed more sustainably, resource-efficiently, and intelligently – levers for a more sustainable and resource-efficient real estate industry. By combining this data with artificial intelligence, the insights generated by the Spacewell Energy platform allow to predict the behaviour of buildings – enabling lower energy costs, the tracking of the usage of natural resources and a better built world.
