Description (French)
Empowered Homes a l'intention d'aider les propriétaires à réduire leur consommation d'énergie grâce au développement d'un logiciel qui s'intègre aux appareils de chauffage, de ventilation et de climatisation (CVC) intelligents. Celui-ci coordonne les différents systèmes CVC d'un logement afin d'optimiser l'efficacité énergétique et de permettre aux clients de réaliser des économies. Baptisée « Auto-Climate », la plateforme intégrée devrait permettre aux propriétaires de réguler et d'optimiser le confort de leur maison avec peu d'intervention directe ou de contrôle et serait la première du genre dans le secteur des systèmes CVC. Pour maximiser la capacité d'Auto-Climate à optimiser l'efficacité énergétique, le projet prévoit également des investissements dans l'amélioration de la saisie, des structures et de l'analyse de données, et ce, afin de permettre l'intégration de fonctionnalités à valeur ajoutée dans les appareils CVC intelligents et dans les applications logicielles.
