However, it is possible to move in the direction of decarbonisation and reduced energy consumption with a low level of investment, thanks to connected solutions.
The situation is all the more obvious in medium-sized French towns. This makes it difficult to launch large-scale energy renovation projects, for example.
Connected solutions, such as smart thermostats, presence sensors and real-time monitoring systems, represent a cost-effective alternative to major thermal renovation. In a context where financial resources are limited, these technologies offer innovative ways of improving the energy efficiency of social housing without the need for large-scale works:
- Optimisation of energy consumption: intelligent thermostats enable precise adjustment of indoor temperature according to occupants’ actual needs.
- Learning and adaptation: our Eco-Touch solution is equipped with learning functionalities that enable it to adapt to occupants’ habits. For example, it can learn when residents are usually away and automatically adjust heating parameters accordingly.
-
Remote control: our Eco-Touch solution can control the home’s indoor temperature remotely via a mobile app. This provides additional flexibility in the event of a change of routine.
- Real-time feedback: providing your tenants with real-time feedback on their energy consumption can encourage them to adopt more economical practices. Our mobile app combined with a smart thermostat can provide detailed reports and personalised advice to improve energy efficiency.
- Monitoring at any desired rate: data feedback from systems can be used to track boiler room activity and detect anomalies or inefficiencies. Plant underperformance is identified as early as possible.
