I specialise in optimising Building Management Systems (BMS/BEMS) to reduce energy spend, improve comfort and unlock the full potential of existing building systems. I prove these savings using IPMVP-aligned measurement and verification techniques.
I specialise in optimising Building Management Systems (BMS/BEMS) to reduce energy spend, improve comfort and unlock the full potential of existing building systems. I prove these savings using IPMVP-aligned measurement and verification techniques.
Below are some optimisation strategies I have delivered for clients to date:
1. Time & Scheduling Optimisation (Quick Wins)
1. Time & Scheduling Optimisation (Quick Wins)
What it is: Correcting run hours, aligning HVAC/lighting schedules with actual occupancy, removing historic overrides.
Why it matters: Typically the highest ROI – quick wins with measurable reductions in kWh and demand.
Tech used: Schedules, calendars, occupancy sensors and main/virtual meters set up prior to implementation to prove savings.
2. Temperature Control & Smart Zoning
2. Temperature Control & Smart Zoning
What it is: Optimising temperature setpoints, reducing overheating/overcooling, creating proper heating/cooling zones in older buildings.
Why it matters: Solves comfort complaints, reduces wasted heat/coolth, and avoids “fighting” systems.
Tech used: Zone sensors, TRVs, strategy rewrites, hydraulic zoning.
3. Optimised Start/Stop
3. Optimised Start/Stop
What it is: BMS automatically calculates the optimal time to warm-up or cool-down a building.
Why it matters: Avoids early starts and unnecessary running; can save 5–15% of HVAC energy.
Tech used: Weather data, internal temperature feedback loops, trend analytics.
4. M&V-Driven Energy Optimisation
4. M&V-Driven Energy Optimisation
What it is: Using main main incomer (gas, electricity and water) and BMS data to create virtual meters for HVAC components, applying regression or load models based on IMPVP protocol to measure savings.
Why it matters: Clear evidence of cost and carbon reduction. Supports CAPEX decisions and funding bids. Builds confidence with senior leadership and stakeholders
Tech used: IPMVP aligned techniques and 10+ years experience in energy management systems.
