Every building has different power consumer. Commercial and industrial buildings are the largest consumers of energy. We live in a 24/7 environment where buildings and the equipment in them are running all the time. Whether it is heating up the office in morning before we come in or lights in offices, parking lots, hallways, and in other locations that are on for between 6 and 24 hours each day, or data centers where numerous racks of servers run constantly, our buildings are constantly consuming energy. The result is that commercial and industrial buildings are responsible for the big amount of energy consumption. To reduce this usage and its associated costs and carbon emissions, a number of vendors are promoting a new generation of energy management systems (EMS), which are a combination of building management systems and advanced software solutions that assist in managing the building functions in a more energy efficient way to provide demand response controls when situations within the power grid demand it. |
