Case Study: Ofenval achieves up to 35% energy savings with Wattsense Bridge

Ofenval achieves up to 35% energy savings with Wattsense

The customer, Ofenval, a provider of heating and air conditioning solutions, faced a challenge at a residential building in Valladolid, Spain. Despite having a Building Management System (BMS), the system could not support wireless LoRaWAN communications, creating a major technical limitation. This incompatibility prevented the implementation of a new IoT solution for centralized monitoring and room-by-room temperature control, which was needed to stop excessive heating in unoccupied rooms and reduce energy consumption without costly renovations.

Wattsense provided its Bridge connectivity solution to integrate MClimate's smart radiator thermostats with the existing Veolia BMS. The Wattsense Bridge closed the technical gap by converting LoRaWAN data to protocols like BACnet, enabling seamless communication between the new IoT devices and the legacy system. This integration eliminated the need for expensive equipment replacements and achieved up to 35% energy savings through precise temperature control and monitoring.
