The yord optimizer makes heating systems intelligent, reducing their energy consumption by up to 40%. It uses complex prediction and regulation algorithms, a technological transfer from chemical engineering, to understand the thermal inertia of the building. The optimizer allows us to make this complex technology accessible to the greatest number of people through its low cost. Using data collected by sensors, as well as weather forecasts, our optimizer anticipates the heating demands of the building. It uses machine learning to self-optimize, thus maximizing energy savings over time. This process of optimizing and controlling the heating system is done automatically and is effective from the day of installation. It ensures users' comfort as well, by maintaining comfortable temperatures inside the buildings. In addition, our solution is compatible with all heating systems, regardless of age and type, as well as buildings of all sizes and uses.

The Environmental Benefits

  • Compatible with all types of heating systems
  • Compatible with all types and sizes of buildings
  • If 25% of Swiss real estate were equipped with our optimizer, it would allow for energy savings of 3.5 TWh and 500'000 tons of eqCO2
  • Energy savings up to 40% for your heating system, starting from day one
  • Reduction of up to 7 tons of CO2 per year for an administrative building of 2'000 m2 equipped with a district heating

The Financial Benefits

  • Saving up to 7'500 Euros per year for an administrative building of 2'000 m2 equipped with a district heating
  • A median ROI of 2 years on all our installations
