Enable your customers to save energy by intelligent systems!

Improvement starts with a decision about what to implement. In most cases an energy audit is the first step. Generally, the next identified actions will be passive measures to fix the basics such as replacing inefficient devices and repairing leaks. Finally active measures for the optimisation and automation of systems are where substantial savings can be made.

Your customers are facing growing energy

prices, and the regulatory pressures to reduce

energy consumption and CO2 footprints are

increasing as well. On the other hand they do

not want to change their behaviours to cope

with increasing costs and regulations. Creating

green energy is one way to face the future‘s

energy situation. However, this still does not

resolve the conflict of growing energy consump-

tions and the demand for reduction. Intelligent

systems are required to enable your customers

to save energy while improving their comfort

and lifestyle as well.

Schneider Electric, the global specialist in ener-

gy management, provides the right solutions

from one source!

Energy Efficiency as a systematic approach combines single smart products to one “green” solution!

Build up efficient solutions with KNX Energy Management

Create intelligent solutions from one source!

Systematic energy management leads to profitability and is better for the environ-ment. With intelligent KNX Energy Management solutions from Schneider Electric you can achieve the highest level of building control comfort as well as significant energy savings. Show your customers the green way to a better future and start by making aware of the consumption. That is where KNX Energy Management starts.

Implementing a contemporary building control

system means more than just adding some

comfort features to the electric installation. It‘s

rather a very individual and precise perception

of how a building is used, what is needed in

every single area and which applications should

be integrated to build up one dynamic system.

KNX is the perfect match by combining intelli-

gent components with an integrated overview

over both – functionalities and consumptions.

This systematic approach of an KNX Energy

Management system makes it easy to meter

not only overall consumptions for rooms, floors

or the whole building. You can even achieve

transparency in the energy use detailed down

to single devices. KNX Energy Management

starts with the right metering concept. Tracking

detailed consumptions means to collect facts

that are normally hidden in overall sums.

Let your customers benefit from these valuable

information. Start with metering the consump-

tion first, then visualise these data via diverse

devices, and finally set the KNX system to react

on present consumption levels to turn buildings

into green ones.

Second step: Visualise – make them aware of their consumption

First step: Meter – what are the facts

Energy is an important subject, not just because of increasing prices. The quest for handling ressources in a moderate way results from an increased energy awareness. KNX-based energy efficiency solutions from Schneider Electric facilitate comprehensive measuring and monitoring from one hand.

Active energy savingEnergy-saving solutions intermesh and can be

perfectly harmonised with one another in order

to put together the right system for every need.

KNX systems can be expanded with additional

solution components in such a way that even

special areas are covered. This allows maximum

energy savings with full comfort!

Measuring consumptionand reducing it automaticallySaving energy always starts with detecting

consumptions precisely. Here the KNX Energy

Meter is the first important component, as it

allows to capture the energy consumption of

single devices or device groups and to actuate

them via KNX selectively.

A second important component of KNX Energy

Management is the KNX Metering Gateway. It

connects a range of meters for different purpose

to KNX and gathers the consumption data for

subsequent evaluation. Gas and water are in-

cluded in the measurement of the consumption

as well.

In reply to the individual requirements KNX

Switch Actuators and Metering Gateway can be

customised and combined with further solutions

from Schneider Electric to achieve an individual

package solution. The Roombox connected to

presence detectors, for example, is particularly

suitable to adjust energy consumption in open-

plan office areas individually by workplaces.

Furthermore enables the PowerLogic EGX300

as an integrated gateway server the collection of

consumption data for electricity, water, gas, oil

and district heating. These data are stored and

shown via the browser.
