better.energy functions

Energy management for companies couldn’t be simpler

The intuitive platform supports you in managing locations, buildings and devices for your energy management system. You can also quickly create new users and assign them different roles and thus authorisations. You can also manage better.energy across multiple locations. So if you have several buildings, you can simplify and optimise heating and cooling management and monitoring with one solution. Of course, the platform is securely stored in the cloud, and you have access from anywhere and at any time.

Sustainable green image

The solution for more sustainability in non-residential buildings

Sustainability doesn’t just mean using renewable resources responsibly. Sustainability also refers to social and economic responsibility. This means treating fellow human beings fairly and acting as a company in a long-term and economical manner. These three areas are the pillars of sustainability. We understand that this may sound time-consuming and costly at first. Our energy management platform shows you that acting sustainably and protecting the environment doesn’t have to be just that.

Smart building

Turn your building into an intelligently networked building

The intelligent room control system better.energy turns your non-residential building, whether hospital, retirement home or office building, into a smart building. The forward-looking and reliable smart control system regulates your radiators and fan coil units, monitors your energy consumption and thus ensures intelligent networking and control. The modern energy management software follows the smart building concept and is based on the new LoRaWAN data transmission technology. This means that better.energy offers you numerous potential savings in terms of energy costs and CO₂ emissions.

Interfaces

APIs for even more automation and optimisation

Our energy management platform offers APIs such as FIAS, File or REST to intelligently network your building and customise processes. The interface between better.energy and PMS systems enables the automated transfer of occupancy data so that the temperature is always adjusted to the current room utilisation. This significantly increases efficiency, reduces energy consumption and gives you a competitive advantage – without any manual intervention. Discover now how better.energy can make your building smarter.

LoRaWAN – energy-saving wireless standard

Wired solutions vs. better.energy

While many smart energy management solutions rely on the wired setup of an IoT network, better.energy is based on battery-powered wireless thermostats and state-of-the-art LoRaWAN data transmission technology. In this way, better.energy communicates securely, reliably and energy-efficiently with the hardware components of your system.

LoRaWAN wireless technology gives you numerous advantages over other wireless technologies. You benefit from greater security thanks to encrypted data transmission, long battery life, low susceptibility to interference, extremely long ranges and very good penetration of the radio signal in your building. You also save a lot of cable and cabling work during installation.

Innovative IoT platform that grows with you

With better.energy, you can rely on an expandable and innovative energy management solution for your non-residential building, regardless of its type. The better.energy IoT platform with LoRaWAN wireless technology gives you security when it comes to expanding your building, as it can be easily scaled. So if you want to expand at a later date or start with just a few rooms and only equip other areas later, this is simple and straightforward.

Prices

What does the intelligent energy management software cost?
