Case Study: University of Bordeaux achieves IAQ monitoring and energy savings with Wattsense

University of Bordeaux monitors 50,000 BACnet data points with Wattsense

The University of Bordeaux, a major multidisciplinary research university, faced the challenge of monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) to comply with government regulations while also reducing energy consumption and its carbon footprint across its large real estate portfolio. They needed an affordable and interoperable solution to connect to building equipment and LoRaWAN devices to collect data without requiring complex coding skills.

Wattsense provided its Tower solution, a multiprotocol IoT device, to break down data silos and remove technical complexity. The solution enabled the university's energy performance team to easily connect to LoRaWAN sensors and collect 50,000 BACnet data points. This allowed them to monitor usage trends, implement energy management strategies, and ultimately work towards reducing their energy bills and carbon emissions. The Wattsense technical support team was also instrumental in the project's success.
