We decreased the energy consumption in our properties by 40%.
ECODRIVING FOR BUILDINGS
“It simply sounds too good to be true.”
This is the most common comment when we talk about Ecopilot®. An innovation which functions on existing ventilation, heating and cooling systems. Our clients have referred to Ecopilot® as “an Artificial Intelligence that enables our various systems to collaborate, rather than constantly working against each other”. And it certainly seems befitting for something which results in such significant savings, creates a more pleasant indoor climate and contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
There are many examples of the technology working effectively. You can read more about some of them here or on ecopilot.com. They also thought that it sounded too good to be true, until they experienced the effects for themselves.

NEWSEC – MEKTAGONEN
The building was totally renovated in 2007 and now houses many different businesses such as a hotel,
restaurant, gym, grocery store and offices.

REGIONFASTIGHETER – HUSKVARNA HEALTHCARE CENTRE
A newly-constructed district healthcare centre in Huskvarna. The property houses health care and dental
operations as well as a maternity welfare clinic.

JERNHUSEN – GOTHENBURG’S CENTRAL STATION
A travel centre which more than 90,000 travellers cross every day. The station was constructed in the
middle of the 19th century and has been reconstructed successively since then.

KUGGEN – GOTHENBURG
The building, which was completed in 2011 for Chalmers, is classified as a green building. It is mainly intended for
innovation and entrepreneurship.

What is the secret?Ecopilot® optimises energy in your buildings in a new way, based on award winning
research from KTH. This is achieved by optimising existing installations in order
to extract the most power possible. It does not matter which control and
regulation system you have installed, Ecopilot® is compatible with all systems
and effectively integrates as an energy optimising module. Once Ecopilot®
is installed, the building’s optimisation of heating, cooling and ventilation
systems can commence, taking into account the building’s thermal
storage capacity, internal energy contribution and future weather.
This means that Ecopilot® will optimise reference values in real
time of the heating, ventilation and the cooling systems. This
results in a dynamic impact on the flow in the heating system,
acceleration of the ventilation when it is needed and so on.
In this way, the Operations Manager of the property can
spend time on other areas, secure in the knowledge that
Ecopilot is performing effectively around- the-clock.
Like eco-driving, but for properties. Traditional control and regulating products find it difficult to make different systems collaborate. This
results in properties stepping on the gas and breaking either unnecessarily or even at the same time.
With Ecopilot® this problem is solved. The average energy savings for our customers is 22% (heating),
28% (cooling) and 13% (electricity).

Ecopilot® is an innovative technical solution, but in practice
it simplifies everyday life for everyone involved, from property
owners to caretakers. In order to perform the work which
Ecopilot® does, it would be necessary to hire around-the-clock
engineers, who do nothing but work with energy optimisation.
The day to day life of facilities personnel becomes more efficient
and time can be spent on the business critical functions.
Ecopilot® is an essential tool for meeting conservation targets
which may have been set, providing a clear path to follow and
enabling you to achieve your goals. At the same time, problem
areas can be identified and rectified before becoming a
concern.
ENERGY AND CLIMATE AGREEMENTMany customers choose to include our Ecopilot® Energy and
climate agreement which delivers advanced monitoring and
optimisation of the property’s energy system. Your provided
with this service anyway in year one as part of our installation,
based on the results, we’re confident you’ll choose to retain it.
You will then have access to a personal energy engineer who
will familiarise themself with your property and together, you
will develop the building with Ecopilot® Analysis as the tool.
We have incorporated a user friendly analysis tool into the main
unit’s interface enabling users to manage their properties
see savings in real time. It will give you a total overview of the
energy consumption and indoor climate as well as full control
of the building. For example, you can see whether the week’s
energy consumption has been normal, whether the energy
targets will be achieved and whether your occupants have the
correct temperature.
So far, Ecopilot® installations have reduced CO2 emissions
by more than 10,000 tonnes per year. This is equivalent
to approximately 20,000 cars driving 25,000 miles each.
With Ecopilot® you will get an “eco-driven” building, which
contributes to fulfilling the EU’s 2020 targets. Ecopilot®
can assist to improve our planet’s conditions for future
generations in a profitable manner. In Europe, like most
energy systems around in the world, 5–10 times more CO2
emissions are required to produce 1 kWh than in Sweden.
Remember, the cleanest kWh is the one which is never used.
