ECCE Webinar: The Value of Energy-Efficiency in the Housing SectorECCE_UM
Europe has a large public housing sector, about 15-20 percent of the housing stock, where very little is known about the financial outcomes of energy-efficiency investments in the building sector. In this slidedeck, Andrea Chegut and Rogier Holtermans present the financial outcomes of energy-efficiency investments in the public housing sector.
The European Commission has big goals to reduce total energy consumption. To achieve that goal, regulatory nudges and financial investments are striving towards increasing the energy-efficiency of the housing sector. As part of that goal, the Building Energy Efficiency for Massive Market Uptake (BEEM-Up) Program, an EU 7thFramework Program project, delivers some first results on the engineering feasibility and financial performance of existing building retrofits that reduce primary energy demand in buildings by 75 percent.
Academically this is also very interesting as to date, studies using measurement tools like Energy Performance Certificates document a positive impact from high energy-efficiency in buildings on their transaction or rental value in residential and commercial real estate markets. However, most of these studies focus on the private housing or commercial real estate markets. This webinar, shares the financial performance and feasibility of energy-efficiency for the public housing sector.

Enforcing vehicle speed limits is vital in lowering
road accident rates and improving road safety.
LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) cinemometer
technology has shown to be more accurate than
radar-based Doppler systems because it can
measure at farther distances, resulting in more
readings possible with the vehicle in the beam
detection area longer. This paper summarizes
LIDAR cinemometer methodology and describes
the primary advantages of these systems
compared to those applying conventional Doppler
Effect-based technologies.
In today’s commercial buildings, installing an effective
WAGES (water, air, gas, electricity, steam) metering
system can be a source of substantial energy and cost
savings. This white paper examines WAGES metering
as the essential first step toward a comprehensive
energy management strategy. Best practices for
selecting meters, and identifying metering points are
described. In addition, metrics for measuring gains in
energy efficiency are explained.
The document discusses Schneider Electric's smart city solutions, which include smart energy, mobility, water, public services, buildings/homes, and integration solutions. The solutions aim to increase efficiency, improve quality of life, and drive sustainability in cities by addressing issues like energy usage, water usage, reliability of resources, traffic congestion, safety, digitized services, sustainability planning, and holistic infrastructure management.
The document discusses Schneider Electric's approach to making cities smarter and more efficient through collaboration between various stakeholders. Key points include:
1) Cities face challenges like congestion, pollution and high costs that smart technologies can help address through solutions like smart energy grids, mobility systems, buildings and water infrastructure.
2) A smart city approach focuses on increasing efficiency through information sharing and integration rather than just expanding infrastructure. It also takes a long-term, collaborative approach.
3) Schneider Electric provides hardware, software and process expertise across various smart city domains and has over 200 project references worldwide delivering benefits like energy savings, reduced losses and emissions, and economic and social gains.
In less than 40 years, 70% of the world’s population will reside in our cities. This rapid
migration will push both current and future urban centres to their seams and expand industrial
and residential infrastructures beyond their breaking points.
This eye-opening fact raises important questions that must be considered by cities around the
world. Can this growth be done in a sustainable way? Will cities be able to reduce their
environmental impact and carbon emissions? Will we be able to meet the sustainability
challenges brought on by regulation and the impact of this massive growth? And, will we
expand in ways which ensure communities are enjoyable places to live and promote social
equality?
We can answer affirmatively to these concerns, and re-design our cities with these thoughts
in mind. With the movement towards smart cities, the urban centres we live in can become
more efficient, livable, and sustainable in both the short and long term, thanks to involvement from city, citizens, and businesses.

Electricity usage costs have become an increasing fraction of the total cost of ownership (TCO) for data centers. It is possible to dramatically reduce the electrical consumption of typical data centers through appropriate design of the data center physical infrastructure and through the design of the IT architecture. This paper explains how to quantify the electricity savings and provides examples of methods that can greatly reduce electrical power consumption.
Many newer UPS systems have an energy-saving operating mode known as “eco-mode” or by some other descriptor. Nevertheless, surveys show that virtually no data centers actually use this mode, because of the known or anticipated side-effects. Unfortunately, the marketing materials for these operating modes do not adequately explain the cost / benefit tradeoffs. This paper shows that eco-mode provides a reduction of approximately 2% in data center energy consumption and explains the various limitations and concerns that arise from eco-mode use. Situations where these operating modes are recommended and contraindicated are also described.
Data center power and cooling infrastructure worldwide wastes more than 60,000,000 megawatt-hours per year of electricity that does no useful work powering IT equipment. This represents an enormous financial burden on industry, and is a significant public policy environmental issue. This paper describes the principles of a new, commercially available data center
architecture that can be implemented today to dramatically improve the electrical efficiency of data centers.
Data centers today lack a formal system for classifying infrastructure management tools. As a result, confusion exists regarding which management systems are necessary and which are optional for secure and
efficient data center operation. This paper divides the realm of data center management tools into four distinct subsets and compares the primary and secondary functions of key subsystems within these subsets. With a classification system in place, data center professionals can begin to determine which physical infrastructure management tools they need – and don’t need – to operate their data centers.

Brightwell ILC Futures workshop David Sinclair presentationILC- UK
As part of our futures focused project with Brightwell we organised a workshop involving thought leaders and experts which was held in April 2024. Introducing the session David Sinclair gave the attached presentation.
For the project we want to:
- explore how technology and innovation will drive the way we live
- look at how we ourselves will change e.g families; digital exclusion
What we then want to do is use this to highlight how services in the future may need to adapt.
e.g. If we are all online in 20 years, will we need to offer telephone-based services. And if we aren’t offering telephone services what will the alternative be?

Elasticity vs. State? Exploring Kafka Streams Cassandra State StoreScyllaDB
kafka-streams-cassandra-state-store' is a drop-in Kafka Streams State Store implementation that persists data to Apache Cassandra.
By moving the state to an external datastore the stateful streams app (from a deployment point of view) effectively becomes stateless. This greatly improves elasticity and allows for fluent CI/CD (rolling upgrades, security patching, pod eviction, ...).
It also can also help to reduce failure recovery and rebalancing downtimes, with demos showing sporty 100ms rebalancing downtimes for your stateful Kafka Streams application, no matter the size of the application’s state.
As a bonus accessing Cassandra State Stores via 'Interactive Queries' (e.g. exposing via REST API) is simple and efficient since there's no need for an RPC layer proxying and fanning out requests to all instances of your streams application.
The document discusses fundamentals of software testing including definitions of testing, why testing is necessary, seven testing principles, and the test process. It describes the test process as consisting of test planning, monitoring and control, analysis, design, implementation, execution, and completion. It also outlines the typical work products created during each phase of the test process.

3. What is a green building?
“The building is a citizen of the city and has an
obligation to society”
—Xiaowei Xu, PhD., LEED AP, Chief Engineer,
Shenzhen Institute of Building Research
“A high performance green building is designed for economic and environmental
performance over its entire life cycle, considering unique local climate and
3
cultural needs and providing for the health, safety and productivity of its
occupants. With continuous care over its life cycle, it minimises energy use,
CO2 emissions, and total environmental impacts, and provides ongoing
measurable value to building owners, occupants and society”

The market demand for Green Buildings is accelerating rapidly. This is not a passing fad—it is the
buildings business of the future, and we need to be in the center of it.
Customers expect their green buildings to enable better business outcomes—like improved stock
performance, increased asset value and rental rates, increased occupancy and tenant retention rates,
improved employee productivity and well-being, and fulfilment of corporate social responsibility goals.
Schneider Electric is uniquely qualified to deliver on the promise of green and the triple bottom line.
We offer energy management and certification expertise at all phases of a building’s life cycle—from
the integrative design/build process, to systems installation and commissioning, to ongoing energy

112. What is a Customer Solutions
Value Proposition?
●It is the unique and/or differentiating value our business offers
to customers. It is what convinces customers to do business
with us over our competition.
●The Schneider Electric model for value propositions:
● A statement that identifies a trend and the implication of that trend to the
customer, including a unique solution Schneider Electric can provide to
that customer.
Schneider Electric - Green Buildings – 2011 1
113. How can value propositions be used?
● Corporate Level
● Enforce strategies, identify unique value to the market, build brand awareness
● Marketing Teams
● As core messaging for global ads, brochures, PR
●Consistency in form and tone will drive thought leadership
● Sales Teams
● Deliver a customer-facing PPT that can be tailored to meet unique customer needs.
● Arming yourself with 3 to 5 formal value propositions empowers you to craft a
conversation that reveals how Schneider Electric can build the best solution for a
customer.
● With the TIPS (Trends, Implications, Possibilities, and Solutions) methodology at its
foundation, a value proposition enables a conversation that clarifies the connection
between our solution expertise and the customer’s specific priorities.

153. Investors and building owners have
multiple options for reaping benefits
● Compliance with standards OR high-performance life cycle design?
● Design building with sustainable features in mind
● Sometimes, green intent doesn’t make it into final plans
● Create comprehensive Operation & Maintenance (O&M) strategy for all
new buildings built
● Obtain full certification (i.e. LEED NC and later O&M rating)
While incremental improvements are beneficial, the real gains
accrue to those who invest in high-performance
measures and attain green building certification
–in design phase and during operation.

166. Main Targeted Customer Applications
Guest Room Control
The Guestrooms represent around 70% of the space in an hotel and are the center of the Guest
experience. Lighting, temperature blinds, safe, Mini-bar, Door-entry system are some key elements of
the room. Innovative solutions can reduce the energy consumption and increase the customer
experience. Integration of the Guestroom to the Building Management System Property Management
System (ex: Fidelio) can as well increase value proposition.
Building Management
Hotels are complex buildings with several processes working in parallel : Specialized Guest Management
systems (ex:Fidelio), Specialized Entertainment Systems (ex:Quadriga), HVAC Management systems
(ex:Vista), Entry CCTV Systems (ex:TAC)
Those systems needs a strong IP infrastructure and a centralized point of control.
Main benefit is the reduction of the investment, the maintenance cost and the increase of visibility on all
the different processes. This solutions need to be adapted to the size and the complexity of each Hotel.
Electrical Efficiency
Hotels are very sensitive to Energy Consumption and communicate on Environmental Friendly approach.
HVAC, Hot Water, Lighting needs are found in public and private parts of the Hotels.
Schneider Energy Efficient solutions can be adapted to the Hotel market taking into account the
importance of the Guest comfort versus the economy.

Healthcare Security Sales Guide | 3
Introduction
As mentioned in our internal segment knowledge guide, Introduction to
the Healthcare Market, hospital facilities are among the most complex
environments and typically have a high demand for integrated systems. In
recent years, growth in this market has outpaced many other segments.
Even in a down economy, healthcare tends to be more resilient than other
segments, making it a very attractive market to pursue.
Hospitals have significant security needs and have to work within remarkably
tight budgets. On the other hand, healthcare facilities have a low risk tolerance
and require specialized application knowledge which, when coupled together,
may present a significant barrier to entry. In addition, North American hospitals
are faced with the uncertainty of what the Healthcare Reform will mean for
healthcare security.
This guide specifically addresses security opportunities within hospitals. For
general information on the healthcare market, refer to Introduction to the
Healthcare Market.
While this guide is intended for a global audience, note that many influential
healthcare organisations are based in the U.S. Examples include the American
Hospital Association, the Joint Commission, and the International Association
for Healthcare Security and Safety. Accordingly, much of the existing research
material that is published is focused on the U.S.

Market opportunity
According to Frost and Sullivan’s 2008 World
Healthcare Security Market report, there are seven
key market drivers for growth in the healthcare
security market: 1
1. Compliance with government initiatives and
regulations
2. General growth and demand for healthcare
services
3. Technological advances in security applications
4. Concern for patient safety
5. Concern for staff safety
6. Increase in associations championing
healthcare security
7. A high replacement rate of security devices in
other segments
Hospitals have high security needs. They are open
24/7, usually employ large numbers of employees,
and patients and visitors can come and go freely.
In addition, they have expensive assets and
controlled prescription drugs on site.
Consider the following statistics:
• The U.S. National Centre for Missing and
Exploited Children (NCMEC) estimates that
approximately 50% of infant abductions in the
U.S. occur in hospitals.
• One in five nurses has been assaulted 20+
times in the past 3 years, leading 67% of them
to consider leaving their job because they do
not feel safe.
Healthcare facilities are looking for solutions to
help prevent these issues as well as patient
elopement, and in addition, protect assets and
prescription drugs.
Technology
To address these crucial needs, common physical
security applications in hospitals include:
• Access control
• Intrusion detection
• Video surveillance
• Intercoms and video door phones
• Walk-through magnetometer
• X-ray scanners
• Parking management
In addition, there are several other applications that
are relevant to the security program and can offer
more comprehensive benefits if they are integrated
with the physical security system.
Examples include:
• Emergency call systems
• Visitor management
• Infant protection
• Mass notification
• Asset tracking
• Drug dispensing systems
• RFID tagging (infant protection and patient
elopement)
Many of these solutions rely on biometrics, IP-based
video, real time location systems (RTLS),
and smart cards.
Biometric technology is well-known in access control
systems. Increasingly though, biometric technology is
also used for data security. Fingerprint readers replace
the need to enter passwords, are more secure, faster,
and more convenient for hospital staff. Fingerprint
readers are also the most common form of biometrics
in healthcare with a 72% market share. 2
IP-based video is gaining acceptance in many
markets; hospitals are not an exception. As budgets
allow, they are replacing older, analog systems with
newer ones that rely on IP-based technology.
IP-based video systems allow multiple locations
to easily view requested or critical cameras. Within
healthcare facilities, general video surveillance is
commonly implemented. More recently though,
hospitals are expanding their video capabilities to
extend security staff resources and are also using it
to support access control through video verification in
key locations.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is the core
technology behind RTLS. Hospitals use these
systems to track staff, patients, and infants, as well

as equipment. RTLS are one of the fastest growing
security technologies in Europe and Asia Pacific.
However, the networks can be relatively expensive
to implement, which halts their growth rates.
Smart cards are encrypted and a highly secure
means to hold patient information and medical
records, as well as access rights for medical staff.
For example, a patient data card (PDC) can hold the
patient’s administrative data, in addition to medical
records. This has become increasingly important in
North America with the need for HIPAA-compliant
patient sign-in systems.
A health professional card (HPC), stores the rights
of the individual staff member to access certain
data fields on the patient’s cards. The result:
admissions staff can access administrative data
without compromising confidential patient medical
information. There is some controversy over
using the smart card for patient records, but as
technology and standards continue to evolve this is
expected to neutralize.
Growth projections
The following charts are prepared from data
extracted from Frost and Sullivan’s’ 2008 report,
World Healthcare Security Market. This report was
developed prior to the full impact of the global
economic crisis. Also, within the U.S., healthcare
reform initiatives have caused many hospitals to
postpone capital projects until funding becomes
more certain.
An overall look at the forecast is shown in the
Market Size Forecast chart to the right.
While these projections may be considered
somewhat optimistic, they are helpful in identifying
technology adoption and interests in the three
regions (Asia Pacific, EMEA and North America).
Asia Pacific
Intrusion detection, access control, and video
surveillance are well-adopted in technologically
advanced countries like Singapore and Australia.
Upgrades to new technology, like IP-based video,
and general hospital expansion will also contribute
to growth in that area. Strong demand for RTLS

is expected. The market for infant protection is
relatively small, but may grow significantly in certain
countries, depending on local legislative initiatives.
Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA)
Asset tracking and RTLS are the fastest growing
security applications in EMEA. And, RTLS is the
strongest security application in Europe today.
Within the Middle East, the demand for RTLS is
more modest owing to moral arguments against
human tracking.
In contrast, the market forecast for infant protection
is relatively small. However, if governments were to
impose legislation to prevent infant abduction, this
market could increase significantly.
North America
In North America, implementation of new security
components is often risk-based or incident-driven.
In addition, compliance with the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and
accreditation requirements is a strong driver
for access control growth. The adoption of IP-based
video is also stronger in North America
than in the rest of the world. Demand for RTLS is
expected to maintain a strong pace as healthcare
facilities struggle to reduce theft of expensive
equipment and keep track of patients, particularly in
emergency departments.

Organisations that impact
healthcare security
There are numerous external organisations and
regulatory agencies that impact healthcare. Some
may even directly affect the security program in a
hospital. Many are specific to a geographic area
and we cannot cover all of them in this guide. It is
important for you to investigate and uncover any,
particularly regulatory agencies, that are applicable
in your area. There are several websites listed in
the Healthcare resources section at the end of
this guide that can serve as a starting point for
your research.
Accreditation organisations
Accreditation organisations are covered in detail
in Introduction to the Healthcare Market. Within
the U.S., three accrediting organisations are
also authorized by the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMMS): The Joint Commission
(TJC), Det Norske Veritas (DNV), and Healthcare
Facilities Accreditation Program.
No matter which accreditation organisation a
hospital uses, there will be some impact on
hospital security. TJC addresses hospital security
functions in the section titled, “Management of the
Environment of Care,” containing the functional
areas “Security” and “Safety”.
Security aspects are also impacted by several
other sections and the Security Director will need
to coordinate across many departments to ensure
full compliance.
The DNV’s National Integrated Accreditation for
Healthcare Organizations (NIAHO) standards and
interpretive guidelines include a chapter on the
physical environment of a hospital. Sections of this
chapter are devoted to life safety management,
safety management, security management, and
emergency management.
It is useful to know which accreditation the
hospital follows. Take the time to understand
how accreditation impacts that specific hospital’s
security functions and reporting.
