About

The HubController is independently proven to reduce a building’s HVAC system energy use by 36.63%, saving 1.77 tCO2 per home every year (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland). Hub Controls has saved 20,846 tCO2 in buildings since 2019. We are the cheapest and quickest way to reduce a building’s energy use & carbon emissions, installing a HubController at no cost to the end user in 15 minutes, and delivering immediate benefits. Our solution supports the electrification of the built environment by reducing HVAC system electricity consumption by 36.63%, thus reducing the need for costly and timely electric grid capacity upgrades. The HubController’s AI controls the HVAC systems, providing a comfortable environment for end users with no need for human intervention for time or temperature settings. End users are not encouraged to continually engage with their HVAC system and turn it on. Our approach is completely opposite to that of other smart solutions: with the HubController “smart” means more energy saved, not easier to turn on.
