Integration of smart controls and building management systems

In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, integrating smart management systems has become a cornerstone for creating future-proof, non-residential buildings.

36% of all CO2 emissions are produced by buildings. To this day, 75% of those buildings are not energy efficient. We at Project Nekton want to change that.

We specialize in providing smart, energy efficient, sustainable and customized solutions for businesses.

Smart, energy-efficient buildings

The fastest, most efficient and cheapest way to aggregate data? Through smart sensors and lighting.

By connecting smart controls to your building management system (BMS), the building becomes a smart, energy-efficient powerhouse. Our lighting fixtures and sensors act as antennas in the building and can transmit valuable data to other building systems such as HVAC and solar panels. This integration provides insight into data such as:

  • Room temperature
  • Relative humidity levels
  • CO2 levels
  • Occupancy levels
  • Light levels

By integrating these data points, companies can achieve optimal performance for all building systems, improving overall efficiency and sustainability.

Project Nekton proudly integrates the building control system Trigrr, which provides seamless and effective management of all smart building operations.

Communication solutions for smart controls

At Project Nekton, we offer several smart communication solutions to meet your specific needs:

  • Wired solutions: We use protocols that are the global standard for professional and digital wired control of lighting and smart building solutions. Lighting fixtures, sensors, and other smart controls can communicate with each other via these protocols as a network: KNX, BACnet, DALI, MQTT, Modbus, and PJLink.
  • Wireless solutions: Advanced wireless systems such as Casambi or Interact for flexible and scalable lighting control. Wireless communication systems such as Bluetooth Low Energy and Zigbee make it easier to scale your solution and offer great potential savings on installation costs and energy consumption.
  • Hybrid systems: Combining wired and wireless controls provides a comprehensive and customizable lighting and building management solution.
  • API: Flexible API integrations allow full integration with these communication systems, providing customized solutions for smart system control, monitoring, maintenance, and data analytics, even when no off-the-shelf link exists between the desired systems.

These communication solutions ensure that your lighting and smart building systems are both effective and customizable, providing the flexibility needed to meet your building’s unique requirements.

Full control and customization

Our advanced integrations and associated management systems provide comprehensive control over your building, lighting and other smart controls. With these systems, you can:

  • Set scenes: Create and recall custom scenes for different activities or times of day, this both for lighting and for controlling, for example, HVAC appliances, opening or closing blinds, and more.
  • Set schedules: Automate schedules to match your building’s usage patterns.
  • Monitor usage and consumption: Track real-time and historical data on usage, occupancy and energy consumption.
  • Reporte and optimize: Generate reports and analytics to optimize building performance and reduce energy costs.
  • Manage remotely: Control your building, lighting and other smart devices from wherever you are via your management system’s cloud connection.

With these features, businesses can create flexible, energy-efficient environments that can adapt to changing needs and conditions. The smart solutions are easily scalable and increase occupant comfort and well-being.
