A detailed guide written by HVAC experts to help you reduce your HVAC related energy costs
You can achieve HVAC energy efficiency when you operate your heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) and ancillary equipment as optimally as possible without compromising the zone ventilation requirements, temperatures, humidity or differential pressures.
HVAC systems tend to account for the largest draw on energy in most commercial buildings. This is especially true when chillers and boilers are included under the HVAC heading. With that in mind, HVAC should be a number one priority for any facilities or operations team focused on energy reduction.
The CIM PEAK Platform
How It Works
The PEAK Platform digitises property operations by capturing collecting and analysing all of the available building data; equipment IoT sensor data, HVAC, BMS and NMI feeds, and more, before synthesising it into structured and normalized sets. This is then translated into valuable insights to pinpoint inefficiencies and opportunities for optimization.
Rules Engine
The beating heart of the platform’s fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) capability is its Rules Engine. The PEAK Rules Engine includes a growing library of advanced FDD template algorithms which are deployed across all building equipment to monitor performance.
Billions of building data points are streamed and captured to detect equipment failure, abnormal operation and optimization opportunities.

PEAK Alerts
Once a deployed rule from within the Rules Engine goes into fault, an insight is generated as an Alert to notify building managers of an identified anomaly, failure or tuning opportunity.
These Alerts are displayed as tickets within the platform and include a detailed explanation of the issue, impacted equipment, rectification steps and data trend history.

PEAK Actions
PEAK Actions is a simple-to-use cloud workflow tool where site teams and contractors can seamlessly collaborate to action insights. Users can raise tasks, track progress, communicate with others and maintain a complete digital history of activities for a building.
Through this centralized workflow and communication, teams can spend less time doing meetings, paperwork, emails and follow up. And more time getting things done.

Reporting
Customized dashboards can be used to visualise building information clearly, by synthesising complex data sets. This provides the visibility, transparency and oversight required to make data-driven decision-making at both a senior management and on-the-ground level.
PEAK reporting mechanisms provide detailed yet clear insights across a range of building performance areas including electricity, gas and water usage, thermal comfort and relative humidity, CO2-e saved, equipment performance etc.
