Challenge<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Traditional heating systems in residential buildings rely heavily on real-time outdoor temperature readings to regulate the indoor climate, often leading to inefficient energy usage and an increased carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Kiona has been providing AI solutions since 2013. Its technology changes how heating systems work by creating a simulated outdoor temperature to control the heating system, instead of using the real outdoor temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The functionality is enabled through Edge Hubs, which act as gateways to connect the data transmission between the building sensors, network and edge platform. Data is consolidated, analysed and communicated on the cloud-based edge platform. Further correlation of this data with weather forecasts and historic data on building energy performance is used to calculate the simulated outdoor temperature. End-users access the platform through devices such as PCs, tablets and smartphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A recent study of 356 buildings in Finland and Sweden demonstrated that ICT solutions can have a significant, transformative impact on energy use and CO2<\/sub> emissions.55<\/a><\/sup> In this case, the AI steering function contains a mix of data and smart algorithms which constantly improve the energy optimisation of individual properties. For the assessed buildings, the heating system with the AI steering function provided a net reduction of energy and GHG emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n
