VBoptimum Gets to the Core of Your Building: The Climate Systems

We achieve this by creating a Digital Twin, a digital replica, of your building that includes all energy data, building characteristics, and the performance of the climate systems. In this Digital Twin, algorithms learn the intricacies of the building and its systems, enabling us to verify whether the systems are functioning as they should. There's significant potential for improvement, as experience shows that around 70% of building systems do not operate correctly.

Predict

24-7 Optimization

With a trained digital twin, we take the next step. Self-learning algorithms predict how energy can be optimally utilized within the building. The algorithms take into account factors such as weather forecasts, solar radiation, and the availability of sustainable energy. This works in conjunction with the building management system, resulting in a consistent 15% to 30% reduction in energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

Simulate

Data driven sustainability

The Digital Twin understands the building down to the smallest detail, knowing exactly how it is heated and cooled, and, importantly, how much energy is required for this. It serves as a unique source of knowledge that can also be used for simulations, for example during renovations. For example, it can calculate the step from a gas boiler to a heat pump or assess the investment in an air handling unit and/or insulating the facade of the building. Using data from your building, the Digital Twin can accurately determine which investment will best suit your specific situation.

Digital Twin lays the foundation for a
future-proof building

Prepare your building for the future. So with maximum comfort and minimum energy consumption. A digital copy of the building forms the foundation for building optimization and sustainability. VB Optimum helps

What our clients say

This is exactly what I expect from a smart climate controller.

Philip Verheye

Colleagues working in the offices are convinced by the indoor climate and comfort level, on the other hand, the benefits of energy consumption become clear when making a comparison with other office buildings.

Patrick Arnold

How cool that I get to experience this technology before I retire.

André den Biggelaar

The ecoBuilding simulations showed us exactly which battery capacity type we had to use in combination with the available connection capacity.

Patrick Kennis

The pilot demonstrated substantial energy savings of as much as 35%. We are very happy about that!

Roy Dols

EcoBuilding is now running well and we are saving significantly. Thanks to VB Optimum, many optimisations have become visible that we didn't know about. Now we are steering the installation in a targeted way to optimal operation.

Erwin van Gorkom

My climate system has become much easier to understand thanks to the insights and VB Optimum knowledge.
