Their approach to achieving this is clear:
A key challenge in this journey was tackling unnecessary energy consumption from plug-powered equipment in office spaces – an often overlooked but substantial source of energy waste.
Office equipment and devices such as monitors, printers, and heaters were consuming power even during non-working hours, leading to:
To address this challenge, BGEN implemented measurable.energy’s AI-powered smart socket technology across two office locations—Firecrest and Stafford.
The smart socket and fused spur technology provides:
After just six months, the impact was clear:
This example demonstrates how to add modern green building technology without extensive retrofitting. Key benefits include:
The energy saving solution is highly scalable and can be expanded to multiple locations, offering increasing financial and environmental benefits over time.
