Nov. 29, 2013: Las Vegas Implements Energy Optimization in Public Buildings
System Automatically Optimizes Energy Usage and Manages Demand Response Events
SAN FRANCISCO — BuildingIQ, a leading energy management software company, announced that the city of Las Vegas is the first city to deploy its cloud-based energy management system broadly for optimized power consumption. The deployment is part of utility NV Energy’s mPowered program. BuildingIQ’s Predictive Energy Optimization™ software learns a building’s HVAC energy patterns to predict consumption. Based on these predictions and electronic signals sent directly from NV Energy, the cloud-based system automatically optimizes energy usage and manages demand response (DR) events, while maintaining occupant comfort.
By enrolling in the mPowered program and participating in DR events, the city of Las Vegas will not only gain energy and peak load savings, but it will provide the city with insights and detailed tracking of the performance of its buildings. In addition, the software can be deployed and deliver results in a variety of building types and sizes.
