ASSEMBLE | Adaptive SystemS for Energy Management in Buildings with Low cost and Enhanced usability

该项目的目的是开发一种创新的易于安装、灵活、低成本的建筑监控和管理系统的基础设施和接口。该系统将利用Teropta目前在其照明控制系统中使用的电力线载波(PLC)技术的优势，避免需要额外的布线，同时不受无线技术的限制和缺点。这反过来将使该产品非常适合新的建设和翻新应用。它将非常适合较小和简单的商业建筑，这些建筑传统上不会安装楼宇管理系统。该产品将包括一个基本的能源计量和监测层，然后通过增加补充模块进行扩展，提供根据建筑环境和目标纳入不同复杂程度的控制和管理功能的能力。应特别强调简化方面的创新，即建立一个尽可能低成本、坚固耐用、安装和调试尽可能简单的业务连续性管理系统。

The aim of this project is to develop an innovative easy to install, flexible, low cost building monitoring and management system infrastructure and interface. The system will harness the benefits of the power line carrier (PLC) technology currently used by TerOpta in its lighting control system in avoiding the need for additional wiring whilst not being subject to the constraints and drawbacks of wireless technologies. This in turn will make the product well suited to both new build and refurbishment applications. It will be well suited to smaller and simpler commercial buildings which would not traditionally have BMS installed. The product will comprise a basic energy metering and monitoring layer which is then expandable through the addition of supplementary modules offering the ability to incorporate control and management functions of varying levels of sophistication depending on the building context and targets. Particular emphasis is to be placed on innovation in simplification i.e. creation of a BMS system that is as low cost, robust and as simple to install and commission as possible.
