ECO-I LTD – Proof of Concept of a Universal embedded intelligent BMS Controller on a Single PCB

BMS（楼宇管理系统）发挥着最重要的安全功能之一，控制、监测、优化和报告设施（通风、照明、电力、消防、安全），并使业主能够优化舒适度和效率。与BMS相关联的系统平均占建筑物能耗的55%。bms由软件+硬件组成；为产品和服务带来全球机遇。据估计，该行业价值300亿美元，拥有超过50万名员工，服务于150个国家。超过10000家英国公司在这个市场开展业务。几乎每个工业和家庭建筑都至少有一个BMS控制器-一个专门建造的单元，用于管理数据（与温度，湿度，压力，电流等相关），用于向toBMS设备传达指令。在建筑中减少能源和碳排放的产品需求将不断增加。《欧洲能源2020》文件和《里斯本条约》指出，“能源效率是一个关键优先事项”，“失败的代价太高”。欧洲的建筑能源性能指令（EPBD）的目标是提高建筑控制器的机会。此外，显示能源证书（DEC）、碳减排信用（CRC）、BREEAM和dis016001都要求使用BMS，这支持了英国能源市场将从目前的430亿英镑到2020年达到2000亿英镑的估计。BSEN 15232（2012）旨在衡量智能建筑控制对建筑能源效率的影响，这是未来建筑设计中预期的强制性要求。该项目解决了对节能“通用控制器”的需求，该控制器最大限度地提高了BMS设备之间的互换性，不需要布线，不需要专门的“专家”，使用通用软件，并通过云最大限度地提高了互操作性。基于智能手机技术的低成本“即插即用”方法已经确定，将实现这一目标，满足当前和未来的立法并开辟新的全球市场。

A BMS (Building Management System) plays one of the most important safety functions,controlling, monitoring, optimising, and reporting on facilities (ventilation, lighting, power,fire, security), as well as giving owners the ability to optimise comfort and efficiency.Systems linked to a BMS represent on average 55% of a building's energy usage. A BMSconsists of software+ hardware; leading to global opportunities for products and services.Estimated at $30bn USD, the industry employs over 0.5m staff and serves 150 countries. Over10000 UK companies operate in this market. Almost every industrial and domestic buildinghas at least one BMS Controller - a purpose-built unit that manages data (related totemperature, humidity, pressure, current, etc) which it uses to communicate instructions toBMS devices.Products that reduce energy and carbon emissions in buildings will be in increasing demand.Europe’s Energy 2020 document and the Lisbon Treaty states “Energy efficiency is a keypriority” and “the price of failure is too high”. Europe's Energy Performance of BuildingsDirective (EPBD) targets enhancement opportunities at building controllers. Further, theDisplay Energy Certificates (DEC), Carbon Reduction Credits (CRC), BREEAM andIS016001, all require the use of a BMS – supporting estimates that the UK Energy market willreach £200bn by 2020 from £43bn today. BSEN 15232 (2012) was created to measure theimpact of intelligent building controls on energy efficiency in buildings - expected mandatoryin future building design.This project addresses an unmet need for an energy efficient ‘Universal Controller thatmaximises interchangeability amongst BMS equipment, requires no wiring, no dedicated‘expert’, uses common software, and maximises interoperability via the cloud. A low-cost‘Plug and Play’ approach has been identified based on Smart Phone tech that will achieve this,satisfying current & future legislation and opening up new global markets.
