COVID-19 Exposes Why We Need Remote Building Management

Modern Energy Management

The uncertainties around COVID-19 is having a significant impact on every industry. For commercial real estate (CRE), entire office buildings are emptied with mandated work from home policies in effect. Yet, many building management teams aren't equipped to manage this shift. In the face of everything from antiquated building equipment to technologies lacking remote access, how can onsite teams ensure buildings are optimized and energy-efficient when there aren’t people in the office? Matt Ganser, EVP of Engineering & Technology at Carbon Lighthouse, joins the show to share the challenges of remote work for facility managers, including the reality that controls are not remotely accessible or adaptive to the number of people in the space. When everyone is working from home over the coming weeks (and the trend that more people work from home in general), there is a huge opportunity to reduce the carbon impact of your building and save money leveraging new CRE technologies.
