July 2, 2014: New Siemens Software Platform Offers Comprehensive Energy Management
Cloud-Based Software Enables the User to Monitor and Analyze Total Building Performance
ZUG, Switzerland — The Siemens Building Technologies Division has launched Advantage Navigator, a software platform that the company said can track the long-term performance of a single facility or an entire portfolio of buildings. The cloud-based software enables the user to monitor and analyze total building performance as measured through energy consumption, energy procurement, and key sustainability performance indicators.
“The Advantage Navigator platform evolved from Siemens’ Energy Management and Controlling (EMC) solution, which collects, connects, and analyzes data,” said Eike Steffen, global head of Building Performance and Sustainability at Siemens Building Technologies Division. “Whereas the EMC solution focused primarily on the demand side and consumption information, the Advantage Navigator platform incorporates energy supply management functionalities to provide a complete picture of total energy management.”
