Case Study: Microsoft achieves $1.5M in annual energy savings with Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions

Microsoft saves $1.5 million annually with Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions

Microsoft, a major technology company, faced the challenge of managing its large campus with disparate and unconnected building management systems. Their facilities team needed to eliminate time-consuming manual calibration, aggregate decades worth of separate sensors from various manufacturers, and save money by identifying equipment that was drawing undetected, unnecessary electricity. They partnered with vendor Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions to address these issues.

Mitsubishi Electric Iconics Digital Solutions implemented a data-driven software solution that acted as an analytical blanket over Microsoft's existing systems. This unified 30,000 sensors into a centralized, streamlined system, providing deep insights and enabling intelligent decision making. The results were significant, with the new system providing an estimated $1.5 million in annual energy savings and allowing engineers to spend 95 percent of their time on engineering tasks instead of manual inspections.
