The Carbon Trust estimates that industry spends £500 million a year in additional energy costs as a result of inadequate building controls.

Smart control technology can monitor temperature/lighting, sense activity, dim lights, open/close doors and windows; and adjust thermostats and so ensure efficient energy use.

The resultant savings can rapidly offset the capital cost of installing a smart control system, contribute to the bottom line by year-on-year savings on energy bills and enhance the rating on the building's Energy Performance Certificate.
