Most building energy management applications require some form of networking. Currently the deployment of these applications is greatly hampered by the lack of an appropriate communications infrastructure in most existing buildings. The aim of this project is to provide existing buildings with a communications infrastructure that opens them up for the cost-effective installation of control and other systems that conserve energy and/or improve occupant well-being. The easy-to-install unified power and communications network that will be the result of this project will allow building owners and occupants to add functionality in a modular plug&play fashion at a much lower cost than existing solutions. In terms of data rate the network will be future-proof, able to deal with narrow-band applications up to CCTV surveillance. As all electronic modules that run of this system benefit from the protective network environment, equipment life will be extended as well. As the network lends itself for a wider variety of applications, not only energy-related, the investment in the basic network is amortised over a broader range of functions, improving ROI.

大多数建筑能源管理应用都需要某种形式的联网。目前，由于大多数现有建筑物缺乏适当的通信基础设施，这些应用程序的部署受到很大阻碍。该项目的目的是为现有建筑物提供通信基础设施，使其能够以具有成本效益的方式安装控制和其他系统，以节省能源和/或改善居住者的福祉。易于安装的统一电力和通信网络将是该项目的结果，将允许建筑业主和住户以模块化即插即用的方式添加功能，成本比现有解决方案低得多。在数据速率方面，该网络将是面向未来的，能够处理窄带应用，最高可达闭路电视监控。由于该系统运行的所有电子模块都受益于保护网络环境，因此设备寿命也将延长。由于网络适用于更广泛的应用，而不仅仅是与能源相关的应用，因此对基本网络的投资在更广泛的功能上进行了摊销，从而提高了投资回报率。
