Switch Automation launches freemium energy benchmarking solution

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- Switch Automation, a global technology company for digitising and decarbonising buildings, has announced the launch of a freemium energy benchmarking solution for global building portfolios.

This move in the industry aims to democratise access to building performance data and accelerate decarbonisation of the built environment during a time when building owners and operators are under increased regulatory and shareholder pressure to meet ESG and net-zero goals within tight time frames.

Switch Automation’s Portfolio Benchmarking Basics is an interactive portfolio management tool that lets users view energy data to identify underperforming buildings to target energy efficiency improvements.

According to a statement, users can bring in up to 20 utility bills to build a reserve of historical energy data and quickly identify opportunities and threats to target energy reductions and meet ESG and corporate net-zero goals.

Included in the Portfolio Benchmarking Basic are comprehensive data analysis; benchmarking and sustainability dashboards; infinite utility uploads and calculations; and “Next step” visualisations.

Since launching the world’s first cloud-hosted operation platform in 2012, Switch's technology has been deployed across asset portfolios in the United States, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and South Korea.

It helps buildings optimise energy efficiency and services and improving occupant comfort and brand equity while reducing operating expenses.

Switch Automation is launching freemium Portfolio Benchmarking Basics platform at CREtech New York 2022, which brings together the world’s leading community of professionals devoted to technological innovation in the real estate sector.
