BEMcontrols LLC has developed an open architecture platform for monitoring and control of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The firm's BEMOSS®-Plus technology is the core of a powerful and low-cost open-architecture platform for building automation systems that provides standard building energy management functions for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC), lighting, and plug control. The platform also has the ability to integrate security cameras, rooftop solar PV and energy storage units. BEMOSS®-Plus is designed for small and medium-sized commercial buildings that do not already have an existing building automation system. The platform has a built-in learning algorithm that can learn from building operation historical data and occupant preferences to allow commercial buildings to save energy (kWh), reduce peak demand (kW) and respond to OpenADR signals from electric utilities.
