style=\"text-align: justify;\">These advancements are particularly important as the global construction industry faces increasing pressure to meet stringent energy efficiency standards and sustainability goals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">HVAC systems are the lifeblood of modern buildings, playing a crucial role in maintaining optimal indoor temperature and humidity, ensuring proper ventilation and air quality, supporting occupant health and productivity and contributing to overall building energy efficiency.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How Honeywell and Cisco\u2019s AI will improve construction sustainability<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Honeywell and Cisco\u2019s approach not only helps building operators manage energy use more effectively, but it addresses the growing demand for sustainable building practices, potentially lowering operational costs and greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As buildings account for a substantial portion of global carbon emissions and HVAC systems account for 40-60% of a building&#8217;s total energy consumption, this collaboration represents a critical step towards more sustainable construction practices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additionally, as urbanisation continues to accelerate globally, the demand for smart, efficient buildings is set to grow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So by leveraging existing network infrastructure and IoT devices, the solution minimises the need for additional hardware, making it a cost-effective option for building owners looking to upgrade their systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Prose_Prose__2zaJW\">\n<div id=\"attachment_86484\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption

style=\"text-align: justify;\">Greg Turner, Chief Technology Officer of Honeywell&#8217;s Building Automation segment, says: &#8220;Buildings have historically been a substantial contributor to overall carbon emissions, but with the rise of hybrid work, operators now have the opportunity to take a fresh look at addressing their environmental impact by moving their HVAC systems away from consistent 9-to-5 schedules.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;By tapping into a building&#8217;s existing technology infrastructure and harnessing the power of AI to fine-tune heating and cooling according to zone occupancy levels, our collaboration with Cisco empowers building owners to gain control of their environment and significantly curb emissions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wes Sylvester, VP of Cisco&#8217;s Industry Solutions Group, adds: &#8220;The convergence of IT and OT infrastructures, seamlessly interoperable with leading building management system platforms, ushers in an era of real-time data insights that can optimise energy usage, regardless of building age or retrofit status.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;By working closely with Honeywell, we&#8217;re enabling building operators with enhanced visibility and control over operational data, setting a new standard for energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SOURCE:\u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-86485\"
