Ahead of an elemental webinar taking place on 25th January introducing some of the solutions that are part of the Wates Innovation Network, we caught up with Emma Blackmore of iOpt to hear about its energy-saving capabilities.
What types of buildings are your products/solutions suitable for?
Homes, offices, retail, leisure.
What are the main ways that iOpt can improve the energy performance of buildings?
We monitor a plethora of assets within a property to allow social housing providers to make better informed decisions in relation to managing their stock and taking care of the welfare of their tenants. iOpt’s end-to-end solution delivers actionable insights that:
- Detect the conditions of damp and mould;
- Identify abandonments and occupancy issues, including over and under occupancy;
- Highlight fuel poverty;
- Recognise poor air quality and sub-standard property conditions;
- Identify poor performing properties; helping to meet net zero targets;
- Accurately measure retrofit work, demonstrating the effectiveness of work carried out;
- Can provide an estimate of annual kWh consumption;
- Determines if tenants are using a property effectively.
How have you found being part of the Wates Innovation Network?
It’s great being part of a community that offers complimenting solutions and products to ours.
Emma Blackmore is speaking on the panel of an elemental webinar on 25th January, on the subject of smart solutions for energy-efficient buildings. She will be speaking alongside other members of the Wates Innovation Network – Photonomi and Altecnic – in a session chaired by Wates’ Tom Sowerby.
