"In the same way that sprinkler systems, ADA, and energy efficient lighting came with financial incentives, the IBWA hopes to demonstrate the public and safety benefits associated with coverage in office buildings."

Energy Efficiency in the Office Building

 

Reducing energy costs is high on the IBWA agenda. Energy accounts for about 38% of a building’s expenses. Therefore, knowing how to light, heat, or cool a property most efficiently can yield significant savings. For example, sensors linked to wireless networks can automatically determine if heating,cooling, or lighting systems should be adjusted. Reducing energy consumption by 35% and lowering the overall building’s operating costs by 10% is quite achievable.
