Advancements in building monitoring and control systems have allowed for much more comprehensive and in-depth data on the performance of buildings, which further allows for optimising the building systems. Simultaneously, the production of all this data creates new challenges, especially when it concerns the interaction and interoperability between different data platforms, which don’t have a harmonised approach on how to collect, store and use the collected data. This has created a multitude of non-interoperable data silos within the building industry and prevents fully exploiting the raw data that is available.

The survey "The State of Energy Management 2022" has been released and can be downloaded here. As in previous editions, this year it is also focused on Energy Service Companies (ESCOs), the challenges they faced in 2022, their priorities for 2023 and the trends they believe will shape the energy landscape in the upcoming years. In this article, we will have a closer look at the results.
The Integrale Energietransitie Bestaande Bouw (IEBB) programme is a multi-year programme focusing on various renovation concepts that are easy to approach and use for residential buildings. The solutions this programme works on focus on digitalisation, heat storage, industrialisation and partnership models and decision-making frameworks.
