Significant cost benefits to industrial, commercial, and residential users

Traditionally, operating cost was one of the major concerns for building owners as they had to incur huge expense in the maintenance of the building because of lack of advanced technology. A simple business consideration for using BMS is being more energy-efficient. As reducing energy consumption directly transcends into reduced energy spending, power saving helps improve the business profitability. Ensuring the BMS operating in peak energy demand conditions will enable to improve system efficiency and reduce operating costs. Effectively designed and managed BMS enable abundant opportunities for improvements in energy efficiency by enabling building operators and managers in providing an optimal working environment consistent with maintaining a building’s energy efficiency rating; enabling early identification of equipment failure; identifying unusual patterns of energy usage; monitoring the effectiveness of energy management plans; and so on. Availability of a complete set of information about building enables the building manager to rectify issues through consultation or engineering solutions. Similarly, it also extends the operational life of equipment and systems in the building through reducing loads and operating hours, which results in the reduced maintenance and capital costs with less consumption of embedded energy through equipment replacement and upgrades.

Building automation can help automate the HVAC and lighting systems, saving 5–30% of the overall energy consumption of the building. The commercial deployments such as data centers consume 25–50 times as much power as an average office and spend 40–50% of all power to run the HVAC and other cooling systems. These large numbers for energy spending indicate more opportunities for energy efficiency and higher savings using BMS. Additional cost saving from preventive maintenance also adds to the benefit of the building manager. The average payback period for return on investment (ROI) from an initiative of the BMS-integrated systems is 3–8 years.
