Transformation in the existing stock: How buildings become fit for the next decades

Intelligent models analyze energy demands, generation, and consumption across buildings, campuses, and entire areas, optimizing the interplay of technical systems. This enables energy systems to be more efficiently dimensioned and operated, reduces peak loads, and strategically integrates renewable energies.

The productivity crisis in the construction industry is not a technology problem

Despite BIM, AI, and digital twins, the productivity of the construction industry has been declining for years. What is the reason for this – and what is often overlooked?
