Hyatt wins the AEE’s Western Europe Region Energy Project of the Year Award for 2018 by using IoT technology and intelligent energy saving methodology provided by Quimera Energy Efficiency

Quimera Energy Efficiency (QEE) is celebrating the success of winning one of the AEE Awards 2018 by presenting the Monitor & Save project in collaboration with Andaz London Liverpool Street hotel.

Winning the AEE award represents a big contribution towards sustainability goals of Andaz London Liverpool Street and is a big milestone for Quimera Energy Efficiency in terms of recognition of all efforts and quality of the project.

The innovative approach of the Monitor & Save project provides intelligent monitoring-based commissioning service with no investment required from the client to fully optimize the facility. The in-built intelligent solution based on the IoT technology is costumed to every building’s needs and is provided under performance based scheme resulting in continuous and autonomous commissioning.

In the case of the Andaz London Liverpool Street hotel, the project kicked off in 2016 and within a year 21% of electricity and 27,1% of gas consumption was saved. This translates in 500.000kg of CO2 emissions saved to enhance the sustainability of our environment. This was achieved using the methodology of Monitor & Save, including the Bopstem technology provided by Wisestate, which is a ground-breaking IoT solution for HVAC control and automation without suffering guest comfort.

‘Andaz London Liverpool Street, in line with Hyatt’s overall sustainability strategy, is committed to operate in an environmentally conscious way and we value that Quimera Energy has been able to deliver on their promise to reduce consumption and footprint and win the AEE Award because of this’ commented Otto Steenbeek, General Manager at Andaz London Liverpool Street hotel.

John Chambers, Business Development Director at Quimera Energy Efficiency says: “QEE would like to thank the management of the hotel, especially to Keith Large and Otto Steenbeek for the great contribution and collaboration on the Monitor & Save project, as without their support, this project would not have been possible to realize. It has been a great pleasure to cooperate with professionals on this level to create a project of this quality deserving one of the AEE Awards 2018. The opportunity of our collaboration has created a fruitful relationship between both companies within EMEA and lately has been expanded to the Americas.”
