Applying controls to reduce building running costs

Mitsubishi Electric has produced a 16-page brochure highlighting the financial and performance benefits of taking full control of a building’s energy use. It seeks to help building operators optimise the performance of their air-conditioning system to reduce running costs and minimise carbon emissions.

The ability to respond to different building requirements is particularly important for air-conditioning systems, which must be able to react to a variety of factors — including different room sizes, usage and occupancy levels, as well as heat loads from electronic equipment and lighting.

Sebastien Desmottes, product marketing manager, says, ‘Operating a heating and cooling system without the right controls, can prove costly. Good controls will benefit any application, large or small, and this brochure is designed to help our customers find the best solution for their situation.
