The implementation of BAT/BEMS* in the non-residential sector offers minimum energy savings in HVAC and lighting of 10%. In an optimal scenario where BAT/BEMS systems are introduced quicker, there will be an energy saving of 37% for HVAC and of 25% for lighting.
For the residential sector, a BAT/BEMS system can produce an extra energy saving for HVAC of 25% to 30% in relation to the actual control systems.
The data give a total extra saving for the EU zone if the utilization of building automation is stimulated and the use improved according to the recommended actions or starting from an optimal scenario in relation to current trends.
