Case Study: Holiday Inn Longueuil achieves 34% average monthly energy savings in common areas with BrainBox AI

One Hotel Optimized Its HVAC Systems While Maintaining Occupant Comfort.

Holiday Inn Longueuil, part of the Holiday Inn chain, needed to reduce energy use in its common areas while maintaining guest comfort in a 24/7 operation. The hotel’s HVAC systems were siloed and lacked centralized control (BrainBox AI could only control about 24% of building energy, roughly $42,000/year), and Holiday Inn sought an AI-driven HVAC optimization solution from BrainBox AI that would deliver savings without disrupting guests or changing zone set points.

BrainBox AI deployed its AI-driven HVAC optimization service—starting with WiFi thermostats and then applying machine-learning algorithms to optimize equipment starts/stops, AHU supply temperatures and fresh-air use. The solution delivered an average 34% monthly energy reduction in common-area energy (about $1,211/month when running), reduced comfort complaints, cut service calls, and extended equipment life—demonstrating BrainBox AI’s measurable impact on energy and operations.
