Studies revealed by the KNX Association show how networked home and building control based on KNX allows up to 50% energy savings.
Climate change and ever-depleting resources mean that efficient energy use is a key social issue. As they account for 40% of total energy consumption, buildings represent considerable energy saving potential. KNX meets the requirements of the top Energy Performance Class for building automation meaning it is ideally suited to fulfilling the tighter energy consumption requirements for buildings. Through intelligent control of building system technology with KNX, the energy consumption of a building can be halved.
Intelligent control of building systems reduces energy consumption and the associated operating costs many times over - this is the conclusion reached by the Institute for Building and Energy Systems at Biberach University of Applied Sciences, Germany. This follows extensive research into the potential energy savings that can be achieved using modern electrical installation systems such as KNX.
