Department of Meuse
Bar-le-Duc
The Department of Meuse partnered with the French startup Agora Software to monitor and optimize energy consumption in its buildings, particularly focusing on colleges that represent 60% of its real estate assets. The initiative was driven by rising energy costs and regulatory requirements, such as the Tertiary Decree mandating significant energy reductions by 2030, 2040, and 2050. By deploying 179 environmental sensors and 15 LoRaWAN gateways, the department gained real-time insights into temperature, CO2 levels, and other factors, enabling better energy management and identifying deviations from set targets. The project, costing 36,700 euros and 50% funded by the Chêne program, aims to achieve 130,000 euros in savings with a rapid return on investment.
During the initial 6-month period (winter 24/25), saving are estimated as: - minus 1.400.000 kWh - minus 310.000 kgCOeq - minus 130.000 k€ The pay-back time is largely achieved in year 1 for a 3y+ usage of the solution.
The deployment took just one day, but preparation and explanation are crucial.
Mélissa Marchand, Director of Real Estate Heritage
Agora Software's solution for optimizing energy efficiency in buildings focuses on identifying and implementing improvements to reduce energy consumption, costs, and carbon emissions by 20% to 25%. The solution uses continuous monitoring and data analysis to align building temperatures with occupancy patterns and external conditions. It provides actionable insights and alerts through a user-friendly dashboard and natural language interfaces, facilitating better decision-making and communication among operational teams. The system emphasizes achieving comfort and efficiency goals, tracking progress, and projecting potential savings based on alignment with energy targets, without modifications on the monitored buildings.
