BrainBox AI Initializes Global Monitoring Network
MONTREAL, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

  -- Centers in Montreal, Dublin and Sydney enable 24/7 supervision of leading
     autonomous AI-powered energy sustainability solution

BrainBox AI (

), a pioneer in predictive and self-adaptive commercial building technology, is 
pleased to announce that it is activating Network Operations Centers (NOC), 
which enable it to provide 24/7 support to its community of global customers. 
Having launched in 2019, BrainBox AI's cleantech solution is now installed in 
commercial spaces in 17 countries. The company has responded to this growth by 
developing a 'follow the sun' model, opening monitoring centers in Canada, 
Ireland and Australia. These centers provide real-time analysis of the HVAC 
systems in buildings, no matter where they are located.

"We're thrilled to launch our global monitoring centers to support our growing 
worldwide customer base. This milestone enables us to introduce 24/7 
observation, as we seek to significantly reduce energy use and the carbon 
footprint of commercial real estate space," says Jean-Simon Venne, co-founder 
and CTO of BrainBox AI. "Buildings produce close to one fifth of the world's 
total carbon emissions. Our easy-to-install technology helps buildings become 
greener by adding a seamless layer of autonomous artificial intelligence." 

Monitoring Center Benefits for BrainBox AI Customers:

  -- Safeguards communications between cloud AI and building assets 
  -- Ensures thermal comfort in connected spaces 
  -- Oversees HVAC asset operations and maintenance status 
  -- Screens possible issues and resolves them remotely, if possible 
  -- Informs on system inconsistencies that require onsite interventions

BrainBox AI's deep learning and cloud-based computing algorithms communicate 
directly with a Building Management System (BMS) and optimize the building in 
real-time. This produces a saving in total energy costs of up to 25%, a 20 - 
40% reduction in carbon footprint and a 60% increase in occupant comfort. 
Building operators can also see up to 50% extension in the service life of the 
HVAC equipment.

The commercial real estate industry currently faces multiple challenges, from 
optimizing tenant comfort to enhancing the sustainable investment case for its 
portfolios, all while aiming to reduce energy use. The International Energy 
Agency states that, globally, buildings represent 30% of final energy 
consumption and almost 55% of total electricity consumption. With greater 
demand for electricity, the world needs to embrace sustainable energy 
management technology to achieve net zero carbon emissions for buildings. 

BrainBox AI is considerably reducing carbon emissions, impacting over 
100,000,000 sq. ft. of real estate across 17 countries, with clients such as 
AMP Capital, GWL Realty Advisors and Holiday Inn. Recently, BrainBox AI was 
recognized by TIME as one of the Top 100 best inventions  ( 
https://time.com/collection/best-inventions-2020/5911317/brainbox-ai/ ) and by 
CB Insights as one of the Top 100 AI start-ups (

) redefining industries in 2021. The company is also a member of the MaRS 
Discovery District, the largest urban innovation hub in North America.
