With the digitization of building systems and the usage of digital tools by building occupants, commercial buildings are dependent more dependent than ever on reliable power.

Digitization of the electrical distribution system helps bring greater visibility and insights to facilitate the decision-making process. It also helps demystify complex power quality issues that can affect the operations and longevity of your commercial real estate assets.

With EcoStruxure Power, we provide digital and power system reference designs and software that significantly streamline the design-build process, reducing the overall risk and the cost of implementation.

For commercial real estate to be attractive to tenants, it must be comfortable and enable the health and well-being of its occupants. We deliver advanced EcoStruxure architecture solutions for enhanced employee and occupant comfort and productivity.

Combine energy procurement, efficiency, and load balancing to turn your building’s energy into an asset by tapping into the microgrid opportunity. A microgrid is a self-contained electrical network that allows you to generate your own electricity on-site and use it when you need it most. A microgrid is thus a type of distributed energy resource.

You can operate microgrids connected to the utility grid or in disconnected island mode. When the grid goes down or electricity prices peak, microgrids respond. And now, with energy-as-a-service financing, we can help you build a microgrid with zero upfront cost.
