"Open API from Betterspace: Uniting Systems for Energy Efficiency"
Betterspace's Open API Solution Streamlines Energy Management in Buildings
In a bid to address energy inefficiency in modern buildings, Betterspace GmbH has developed a revolutionary Open API solution called better.integrations. This innovative system aims to connect various systems in hotels, care facilities, and municipal buildings, creating a seamless data flow that enables targeted energy savings [1].
Locaboo, a partner of Ayunis, is one of the first to adopt the Open API better.integrations for connection. The technical integration for Locaboo was quick and uncomplicated due to the open API, with the connection of Locaboo's room occupancy data with better.energy allowing rooms to only be heated when occupied [2]. This integration facilitates more transparent, coordinated control over energy-consuming systems, reducing energy waste where demand is absent [1].
The better.integrations system is designed to optimize energy usage based on real-time data from various systems. It networks data from room occupancy, window status, and desired temperature, previously scattered across different applications [3]. This integration enables rules to be set centrally for heating behavior (e.g., maximum valve openings) [1]. For example, rooms are only heated when booked or occupied, preventing unnecessary heating of empty rooms such as hotel rooms, offices, or patient rooms.
The main purpose of better.integrations is to reduce energy consumption by enabling communication between different systems. The solution reduces energy consumption by connecting independent systems via an open API, automating heating based on real-time occupancy and booking data, allowing centralized rule setting for building climate control, and generating more efficient heating and energy management workflows based on comprehensive, integrated information [1].
This approach overcomes the typical fragmentation where data lives in separate applications, enabling energy-saving decisions that are responsive to actual room usage and environmental conditions. Betterspace's solution serves over 700 customers through Locaboo's AI-driven resource management software [4].
The innovation introduced by Betterspace could potentially lead to significant energy savings in various sectors, such as hospitality, healthcare, and public facilities.
