Energy Management Systems (EMS)/Building Automation Systems (BAS)

• Regardless of the size of your store or facility, if you haven't installed an EMS or BAS yet, you won't be able to maximize the efficiency of your facility operations without one.
  
  
• Small stores in large numbers can benefit with large percentage savings from an EMS/BAS system to control their lighting and HVAC operations.
  
  
• If you have installed and EMS/BAS, but haven't updated your EMS/BAS since the 80's, you may want to review what the newest systems offer, and how they can link systems together, even those from different manufacturers. BACNET standards adopted by most of the major manufacturers make it possible.
  
  
• Having the EMS/BAS hardware is only part of the solution. These systems are much more than glorified timers for lighting. Getting the programming right for the sequence of operation for HVAC is critical, and can provide you with more savings on a daily basis.
  
  
• Most EMS/BAS systems have returns on investment in less than five years, depending on utility incentives, your existing operational controls and your HVAC equipment currently in place. Most systems can be installed with turnkey operation for $1.00 per Sq. Ft. or less.
