Innovations in building management systems
The world of building management is changing and smart buildings are becoming increasingly important. A modern building management system is an important part of that. In a smart building, you not only create a comfortable indoor climate, but building users can also easily find a parking space, flexible workspace, meeting room or their colleagues.
The evolution of building management has introduced smart technologies that revolutionise how buildings function. Key innovations include:
1. Digital twins
A digital twin is a fictional simulation of how the building would operate in actuality. The aim is to make predictions about the required values of the system and what equipment is needed to ensure the system operates as efficiently as possible.
2. Building energy management system (BEMS)
As soon as you decide to merge your BMS and energy registration and monitoring system, you actually have a Building Energy Management System (BEMS). This is an automated system with fully computer-operated control based on artificial intelligence (AI), without human intervention.
3. Predictive maintenance with AI
With advanced data analytics, machine learning and AI, modern BMS solutions can predict potential equipment failures before they happen. This reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and ensures your building operates seamlessly.
With Priva bGrid you have one system incorporating all the functionalities for an optimal working environment. With a BMS from Priva, you are already taking an important step towards the future.
Integrating building management systems to cloud services
By using an integrated building management system, that is linked to cloud services via building automation, you, the building manager, are able to monitor the important parameters of a building at all times. Because the BMS is fully automated (effectively a building automation system), it automatically responds to climatological changes inside and outside the building and adjusts the important systems of the building accordingly. For example, sunshades can lower automatically when sunlight hits the building, or heating systems can adjust dynamically. With this automation, you simultaneously improve your BMS’s energy performance.
