RWTH Aachen University - Customer Case Study

RWTH Aachen University, a major science location in Germany, faced a challenge in optimizing the energy efficiency and sustainability of its diverse building portfolio. For the modern PPS lecture hall building, the university's management sought a data-driven solution to identify and prioritize operational improvements. They partnered with aedifion to implement its cloud platform for digitalized energy management.

aedifion connected the building's automation system to its cloud platform via a plug-and-play edge device, providing immediate data transparency. Through its full-service .elevate package, aedifion's engineers analyzed the data, created digital twins, and implemented optimized control sequences. The results included annual savings of 107 MWh of energy, 14 tons of CO2 emissions, and €8,470 in operating costs, demonstrating significant environmental and economic benefits for the university.
