The pressure to meet global climate targets has never been greater and with buildings accounting for 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions, there is an urgent need to advance sustainable building technology to help enterprises meet net zero goals while accommodating for continued growth. “The Smart Building of the Future,” a new paper from Johnson Controls (NYSE: JCI) outlines how smart buildings equipped with advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, IoT, cloud and cybersecurity will help enterprises create a future where our buildings integrate with human and environmental ecosystems. Smart buildings offer a harmonized environment that prioritizes both well-being and sustainability, using technology to adapt and unlock potential, support productivity and drive peak performance of building occupants.

“Never has it been more important for organizations to consider advanced and efficient ways to reduce their carbon footprint – especially in the buildings industry, which is the single largest source of our planet’s greenhouse gas emissions,” said Johnson Controls Chief Technology Officer Vijay Sankaran. “The smart building of the future offers new and more effective ways to help companies meet critical climate goals, reduce costs, enhance daily operations to achieve business growth and improve personalized experiences. When a building ‘comes alive’ with smart technology, all stakeholders benefit from the integrated approach that ultimately creates a healthier, safer and more productive environment.”

Several factors are converging to accelerate the development and adoption of advanced building systems technology. As building owners work to respond to challenges such as rising energy costs and changes in occupancy patterns, among others, sophisticated IoT devices and the implementation of data analytics and AI have become more important than ever.

The report also offers building managers key insights into the major technology enablers of advanced smart buildings, including:

• Ubiquitous connectivity through cloud-based services on the edge breaks down barriers between siloed and integrated devices, enabling the flow of real-time information that business leaders can analyze for insights and continuous improvement.
• AI-enabled autonomous smart buildings will be at the core of the next generation of smart buildings, driving efficiencies, enhancing the user experience and enabling advancements in sustainability. AI at the edge reduces privacy, compliance and cyber concerns by allowing data to be securely processed and stored within the building operator’s network.

• Digital twins enable a continuous feedback loop between the physical and the virtual by facilitating the integration of AI, IoT and cloud technologies to generate strategic recommendations for improving building performance and user experience.

As many of the technical foundations required to turn buildings into smart buildings already exist, organizations should take additional action to prepare for and improve their future building operations. This includes developing a strategy that includes user experience, partnering with IT and cybersecurity teams, establishing partnerships with external consultants, investing in education and training, and running pilot projects.

This report builds on recently announced survey results from Johnson Controls and Forrester Consulting that show widespread acceptance of sustainability as a business priority and a firm recognition that partners are essential to realizing 2030 sustainability commitments. The survey found building operators believe smart buildings are important in helping organizations accelerate sustainability initiatives and that adding or upgrading building automation and digital technologies to optimize energy use are among the most impactful sustainability investment areas. The survey also found that most leaders seek partners, like Johnson Controls, who can provide a digital platform across sites and use cases, which Johnson Controls provides.

As a one-stop-shop for creating smart buildings, Johnson Controls has developed a three-step process to transform buildings into strategic assets – design, digitalize, deploy. The journey starts when we design and roadmap solutions that achieve efficiency, sustainability, decarbonization, resiliency and energy transition in accordance with our customer’s goals. Next, we digitalize to make buildings smarter through solutions like our OpenBlue Enterprise Manager – Net Zero Advisor, connecting infrastructure, distributed generation and the grid so we can access data that is critical to making informed decisions to solve for cost and carbon. We then deploy our solutions through a one-source, turnkey delivery model that leverages best-in-class efficiency, electrification and renewables solutions. Operations, service and maintenance underpin our “as-a-service” offerings to maintain peak operating conditions, protect customer’s investment and achieve the lowest lifecycle costs.

The cornerstone of this smart building strategy is Johnson Controls OpenBlue, an industry-leading ecosystem of connected technologies, digital solutions and services. OpenBlue reads the live activity of a building and continuously adapts to optimize performance. Combining data from across the building’s systems and using advanced digital tools like AI, we can provide insights that save more energy and emissions than possible with isolated systems. OpenBlue is recognized in the building industry as a `powerful enabler of measurable outcomes and earlier this week, Johnson Controls was named a leader in energy management software by Verdantix in its Green Quadrant: Energy Management Software report.

In our exclusive interview with Lakshita Wijerathne, CEO of Eutech Cybernetic, we unravel the dynamic intersection of sustainability, technology, and real estate. Wijerathne, the driving force behind the transformative iviva platform, shares insights on navigating the urgent need for carbon reduction in the real estate sector. Join us as we explore how innovative technologies are reshaping buildings, reducing operational costs, and aligning the industry with global climate goals. This interview promises a concise yet illuminating glimpse into the strategies and innovations driving a sustainable future for the built environment.

1.    In the context of the real estate sector’s commitment to reducing emissions, how does iviva contribute to the transformation of existing buildings to meet net-zero targets by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050?

Buildings generate 39% of energy-related carbon emissions worldwide; 28% from the energy needed for operations, and the remaining 11% from their materials and construction, according to the International Code Council. When the high carbon emissions of new construction is viewed against the backdrop of the global imperative to combat climate change, demolishing old buildings and erecting new ones is not more sustainable.

Approximately 80% of today’s buildings are anticipated to remain in use in 2050. To enhance efficiency and meet net-zero objectives, there is a pressing need to transform these buildings into smart ones. According to a recent report, the smart building market is projected to grow more than fivefold from USD 103.91 billion in 2022 to USD 538.45 billion by 2030. The most effective approach to environmentally retrofitting older buildings involves implementing a cost-effective technological upgrade, outfitting them with smart devices.

The iviva platform empowers building owners, operators, and occupants to retrofit their buildings and workspaces cost effectively through a combination of information technology, operational technology, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For one, the utilisation of digital twin technologies allows for the simulation and prediction of building upgrades without interrupting real-time operations, allowing continued revenue and preventing costly errors in the implementation of upgrades.

Technologies that enable energy savings through smart cooling, ventilation, and lighting are only half the battle. Building users also have to make a conscious effort to use these smart systems to reduce their individual and organisational carbon footprints. Artificial intelligence and machine learning are used to provide all building stakeholders with insights into their energy usage, as well as the means to lessen it.

The same technology is also available to building owners and operators to enable intelligent predictive maintenance. Systems like air conditioning and lighting operate at peak efficiency for longer periods while reducing the number of maintenance activities.

2.    Upgrading existing buildings for operational efficiency is a key focus. Could you share specific success stories where iviva has made a significant impact on reducing carbon footprints and operational costs simultaneously?

The Paya Lebar Quarter (PLQ), a Green Mark Platinum-rated mixed development by LendLease, uses its iviva-powered Open Building System Integration (OBSI) platform to connect all of the systems and equipment within its retail mall, three commercial towers, and three residential blocks.

Aside from integrating all of the development’s smart systems, the OBSI has a digital twin that allows building operators to conduct predictive maintenance. Instead of having routine maintenance activities which cost more and may come at times when it is not yet necessary, maintenance teams at PLQ only have to work on systems when necessary. This ensures the latter remains at peak energy efficiency while reducing operational costs.

3.   As the commercial real estate market experiences structural changes, how do you see these shifts influencing decisions on constructing new buildings versus upgrading existing assets? What role does sustainability play in these decisions?

The global pledge by top CEOs, including those from the real estate sector, aims to reduce building-related emissions by 50% by 2030. How can the built environment sector balance the urgency of meeting these targets with the practicalities of the industry and the longevity of existing structures?

Sustainability has emerged as a critical consideration in business decisions, reflecting a broader trend towards environmental consciousness. This is especially true in Singapore where carbon emissions, though a minor fraction globally, are exceptionally high (about twice the global average at 12 tonnes annually) when viewed on a per capita basis.

While energy-efficient technologies have led to reductions in carbon emissions, the real estate sector also needs to reduce what is called “embodied carbon” or those that arise from the manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance, and disposal of building materials. This makes the replacement of existing buildings with new, more energy-efficient ones a non-option.

The trend towards the optimisation of existing buildings towards less energy consumption and smaller carbon footprints is supported by the United Nations, which has said that repurposing buildings typically achieve a 50 to 75 percent reduction in emissions.

4.   From an economic standpoint, how can sustainability initiatives, particularly those involving upgrades to existing buildings, be framed to attract investors and asset owners, considering the challenging landscape of valuations and rents in the current hybrid work environment?

While sustainability initiatives are often seen as a cost, they can also be framed as an opportunity to take advantage of growing demand from tenants for sustainable and energy-efficient buildings, as well as government policies that reward green real estate developments. Simultaneously, the same technologies that enable the cost-effective implementation of smart, energy-efficient systems can also be leveraged to improve operational efficiency and lower operational costs for building owners and operators.

One source of savings for building owners and operators is the reduction of energy consumption. The upfront costs of installing energy-efficient systems are more than offset by the long-term savings generated from them. Another source of savings is the reduction in scheduled maintenance activities through the implementation of intelligent preventive maintenance.

By cutting back on costs while improving their developments’ user experience, building owners and operators can improve the yields and valuations of their properties.

5. In the realm of greenwashing and mandatory sustainability reporting, how can the real estate sector genuinely differentiate itself by adopting technologies that not only meet compliance standards but go above and beyond in creating sustainable and efficient spaces?

Equipping buildings with smart technologies is only the first step in creating sustainable and efficient spaces. Building owners and operators need to concretely measure the impact these technologies have on their developments’ energy usage, carbon emissions, and other metrics of sustainability. Not only is this important for ensuring compliance with government regulations, but it also enables enterprises to maximise the impact of their sustainability initiatives.

Thus, the installation of smart systems should be complemented with a technology platform that integrates the latter under one pane. By having better data capture, consolidation, analytics, and visualisation, decision-makers can streamline their facilities management processes towards meeting their developments’ sustainability targets.

Data visualisation serves as the optimal management tool for people who manage buildings. It is important for the various stakeholders including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Finance Officer, facility managers, and sales or marketing professionals, to possess the ability to customise and analyse specific data pertinent to their respective roles without incurring additional expenses. This quick and cost-effective dashboard customisation enables them to conveniently access the required data respectively.

6.   Collaboration is key in addressing climate challenges. How can stakeholders in the built environment sector work together to amplify the impact of sustainability initiatives, and how does iviva facilitate such collaborative efforts?

To amplify the impact of sustainability initiatives, stakeholders such as owners, operators, tenants, and users must collaborate effectively. A crucial element in improving collaborative efforts is providing all stakeholders with the platform, tools, and know-how to participate.

iviva’s platform is designed with a low-code/no-code approach, enabling all individuals, from company leaders to facility management staff, to engage with it. Through this inclusive model, everyone has access to the data necessary for informed decision-making.

Moreover, iviva’s platform fosters a culture of sustainable behaviour among building users. The platform visually presents individual usage and its impact on energy consumption and carbon emissions. This visualisation enables users to understand the connection between their actions and environmental consequences. By making this connection transparent, iviva encourages building users to adopt sustainable practices.

The technologies needed by building owners and operators to achieve sustainability goals are readily available. But to put them together in a way that also enhances operational efficiency, reduces costs, and improves the bottom line requires the seamless integration of these individual technologies. The best way to achieve the seamless integration described above is through an open platform that can effortlessly connect with any smart building system while remaining accessible to those with minimal to no experience with coding.

Conceptualised to enhance logistical connectivity for Malaysia’s agricultural  communities, Doka Malaysia’s stayed-cable bridge in northern Borneo will provide  valuable access for farmers and traders while supporting the country’s food security  program.  

Located on the northeastern side of Borneo, Malaysia’s largest region of Sarawak, renowned for  its biodiversity, karst and national parks, is in transformation. As part of the government’s  initiatives to improve productivity and strengthen supply chains, it is actively pursuing the  industrialisation of its agricultural sector, thereby supporting farmers and the region’s rural  communities.

As part of this strategy, the region also requires infrastructure and, with it, the development of  bridges and highways to traverse its numerous rivers, such as the Batang Lupar, which separates  Simanggang, the capital of Sri Aman, from its neighbouring agricultural communities of Jalan  Utama Kedua and Jalan Pasisir. Working with main contractor, Naim Gamuda (NAGA) JV Sdn  Bhd, Doka Malaysia was brought in to provide a flexible formwork solution for the stayed-cable  Batang Lupar Bridge No. 2, in particular to cater to the unusual shape of the pylons. Initially  awarded in 2019, the bridge was placed on a one-year hiatus during the pandemic, meaning  Doka’s solution also needed to play catch up without sacrificing safety or increasing cost.

In terms of approach, Doka’s formwork solution will need to deliver four 145.5 metre-high slopping  pylons with two crossbeams at 16.87 and 94.15 metres, respectively, and a two-sided cast in-situ  deck slab at 20.87 metres in height. Using an Automatic Climbing Formwork SKE 100 plus for the  casting work, Load-bearing Tower d3, Load-bearing Tower Staxo 40 and a Ringlock Shoring  System were used to cast the crossbeams and deck slab. Ringlock was also used to temporarily  access the Automatic Climbing Formwork SKE 100 plus platform at height. Based on the project’s  remote location, the combination of Load-bearing Tower d3, Load-bearing Tower Staxo 40 and  Ringlock meant a lower investment and transportation cost for the client, while Ringlock’s  multifunctional features enabled its dual purpose use as both shoring and access scaffolding.

Arguably, the most essential feature of the project was the Automatic Climbing Formwork SKE  100 plus system’s flexibility in shaping the pylons, which gently taper until 94.15 metres. As a  result, the craneless system, which also enabled the client to temporarily store materials on it to  increase site efficiency, the project timeframe was reduced by two months, with the contractor  optimistic that more time can be saved with an additional Automatic Climbing Formwork SKE 100  plus system commissioned for the remaining pylons on the other side of the river.

Speaking on behalf of the main contractor, Project Manager Yii Hing commented, “Doka’s  reputation for delivering fast and efficient formwork solutions is well known in the region, and its  work on the Batang Lupar Bridge No. 2 has been no exception. From the physical products and systems to the engineering and safety support on site, the project has progressed ahead of  schedule with complete consideration of our assigned budgets.”

Having started almost five years ago, Doka’s hands-on training, engineering expertise and  efficiency, combined with its high-performing products and systems, will mean the Batang Lupar  Bridge No. 2 will likely be delivered within a year and start supporting Sarawak’s agricultural  communities effective immediately.

Founders of Hiboo

 

Hiboo raises €9.3 million euros. Its solution improves  productivity and decarbonization of industrial  machinery and vehicles by up to 20%.

Hiboo is a company specializing in the collection and exploitation of data incorporated in fleets of industrial machinery and vehicles, and emitted by them. Its technology  makes it possible to measure performance and consequently improve it, from both an  environmental and financial perspective. This produces a 20% reduction in the carbon footprint left  by large construction sites, which mostly use diesel-powered machinery. The market has shown its  trust and enthusiasm with regard to the value of this service, for Hiboo has raised €9.3 million in the  Series A round of funding. The major construction companies have been following the operation  with particular interest.

Hiboo has concluded funding arrangements with Emerald and Nabtesco, ISAI Build Venture, Future  Industry Venture, Ring Capital and Citizen Capital. It has been assisted by investment bank Chausson  Finance and law firms APE and Jones Day. The capital raised will serve to underpin the company’s  development along three main lines:

• Technology. Hiboo’s products will be developed so as to make data more accessible and  more intelligent. Aside from collecting and making best use of data, Hiboo will be able to  imbue it with meaning, enabling it automatically to generate warnings, reporting, etc. The  benefit for clients will be in gaining automated control of their fleets.

• Resources. New talents will be recruited, in both Tech and sales, to enable the company  to continue to grow, and to maintain its leadership as an innovator.

• International development. This will meet the needs of Hiboo’s clients, whose operations  are often trans-national.

Exploiting unused data in construction plant and machinery in order to create value

The average idling rate of construction plant and machinery has been estimated at 37% by the French  National Federation of Public Works Contractors. Some machinery even operates at a 70% idling rate,  which means a great deal of energy going up in smoke. It is Hiboo’s vocation to improve the  productivity and energy efficiency of companies’ fleets of mobile industrial machinery, by making use  of the data emitted by the equipment.

The data collected is presented on a dedicated platform or is integrated into the main management  software used by companies (SAP, Salesforce, BLG…). Thus, companies can access indicators  concerning the use and exploitation of their equipment (idling, fuel consumption, anomalies…),  measure their actual CO2 emissions, and reduce them by up to 20%.

Hiboo’s SaaS solution, used by many companies in the construction and equipment rental sectors,  processes data from 63,000 pieces of connected equipment from 90 integrated sources in over 100  countries. The company currently employs 45 people.

Up to now, the data generated by each piece of equipment or vehicle, whatever the make, has not be  used systematically, because those who manage the machines have lacked the necessary  understanding or awareness. With Hiboo enabling them to learn about data use, they can achieve a  solid rationalization.

Hiboo’s technology meets two major issues that the industrial sectors are concerned with: profitability  and energy-saving. This funding shows that the market and industrialists are hungry for solutions that  enable the latter to have a better vision – and therefore better control – of their fleet, so as to use it  in a way that costs as little as possible, both financially and environmentally.

Preparing a low-carbon future

Against a background of increasing energy costs and more pressing environmental concerns,  industrialists are showing a growing interest in the data emitted by their equipment, with a view to  improving their control of operations and measuring real CO2 emissions. Furthermore, they now have  to comply with new restrictions that oblige them to have this visibility, whether it be with regard to  non-financial reporting or to declaring their CO2e emissions (CO2 equivalent) when it comes to tenders.  The fact that the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) came into force on 1st January  2024 adds a further dimension to these priorities, compelling companies to standardize and improve  their non-financial reporting, particularly with regard to ESG criteria.

Hiboo’s solution meets this need, and fits in with the principle of technology that takes major financial  and societal issues into account. By 2027, the company aims to help its clients save over 1.3 million  tons of CO2. Hiboo wants to shape the future of equipment management, and to increase its market  share in Europe and the rest of the world, by becoming the authority with regard to data management  of heavy equipment.

“This round of financing marks a turning point in Hiboo’s development, as it demonstrates the  confidence that investors and our customers have in our product. It will enable us to continue  to develop both technologically and in human terms, particularly internationally. Technologies  such as the one proposed by Hiboo make it possible to continue an activity while reducing  energy wastage: a prerequisite for the development of a low-carbon industry”, commented  Clément Bénard, CEO of Hiboo.

“The next step for the construction industry is going to be to harness the data from its machines  for faster response, clearer insights and improved overall management,” says Mehran Zaker,  Investment Manager at Emerald. “Hiboo is perfectly positioned at the forefront of this exciting  transformation.”

“Hiboo perfectly embodies our investment objective defined in partnership with the Bouygues  Group a few months ago: to accelerate the decarbonization of the construction sector through  the emergence and adoption of new technologies. Hiboo has what it takes to become a  category leader, and we’re proud to support them in this round of financing”, says Arnaud de  Scorbiac, Partner at ISAI.

“We are very proud to contribute to the development of Hiboo, which offers an effective  solution for measuring and reducing the carbon footprint of construction, one of the sectors  that emits the most greenhouse gases. Our investment in Hiboo is in line with our impact  strategy, which includes financing technological enablers of the transition that, like Hiboo, help  accelerate the decarbonization of entire sectors of the economy. We welcome Clément Bénard  and his team to the Ring Capital ecosystem”, says Laurent Babut, Partner at Ring Capital.

“Reliable, comprehensive data is the prerequisite for any goal to reduce waste in an industry.  In a sector like construction, which concentrates a major share of greenhouse gas emissions,  initiatives like Hiboo are therefore key to identifying and activating the right decarbonization

levers. Hiboo has impressed us with its ability to become the backbone of all its customers’  operations, and we are proud to support it in its mission to make this industry more  sustainable”, explains Olivier Mougenot, Partner at Citizen Capital.
