Smart buildings: shaping how we live and work in 2021
Summary
As people begin returning to shared spaces once herd immunity has been reached, the health of building occupants and energy efficiency will continue to be top of mind - and an investment priority for facilities managers around the world. It is important to note that while the report reflects an analysis of the US market, many of the themes are appropriate to the European property industry, and the research opinions are likely shared by the majority. • 70% of organisations are very or extremely likely to have one or more facilities that are nearly zero, net zero or positive energy or carbon status in the next ten years (an increase of 7% from 2019). • 33% plan to invest in the integration of building technology systems with distributed energy resources in the next year (an increase of 15% from the previous study). The ability to monitor, maintain and control various aspects of a building remotely via a single dashboard allows the facility manager to - quite literally - ensure a safe, efficient, energy-saving environment at all times, from anywhere.
