Abstract
Green consciousness is a prerequisite for environmental protection. Renewable Energy Sources and Energy Efficiency seem to be the only way to reduce harmful greenhouse gases like CO2. Cutting-edge technologies could be a driving force in the energy sector, covering issues that are vital for energy production, consumption and management. With rising energy costs and the move toward more sustainable buildings, increasing energy use in buildings has both financial and environmental consequences. So it is critical for building owners and facility executives to determine if their buildings are operating as efficiently as they can and if not, having the ability and control to do so. Aiming at a new era of energy, Build-IT provides energy monitoring solutions and innovative applications for energy data analysis.
