OCS pioneers new ways to save energy and the environment

OCS Engineering – the expert engineering and technology division of the leading property support services group OCS - will be revealing its leading-edge solutions in building maintenance on stand A5 at the top trade exhibition Maintec 2007.

In the area of energy-savings – a main topic of the exhibition – OCS will introduce its pioneering intelligent energy control system ICE™ which promises savings of between 10%-15% on a typical building energy cost at a time when costs are 60% more than 12 months ago. ICE™ harnesses twenty first century technologies by sitting above conventional BMS systems and combining the latest advances in artificial intelligence and genetic algorithms to seek out ‘hidden relationships’ between variables in a building such as internal and external temperatures, meteorological predictions; building heat-up and cool-down; and other minute changes in operating conditions. Using this highly predictive intelligence, ICE™ is able to carry out continuous, high-level interactive adjustments to building systems which can result in significant energy savings across all building energy usage.
