Project status:
On-Going Completed Terminated
Project Outcomes:
Potential energy savings of 20% through localised ventilation control
Reducing energy wastage due to sensor drift
Reducing system maintenance downtime and long-term sensor maintenance cost by using data-driven and remote calibration to replace current laboratory and onsite calibrations that is commonly done
Ensuring adequate IAQ  for occupant’s health and productivity
