Solutions that energize buildings and infrastructure
Commercial buildings have diverse power requirements dependent on their size, function and the technologies that they implement to support daily operations. Consistent and reliable power is required to maintain lighting, heating and cooling systems, elevators, office equipment and other electrical systems. Avoiding power disruptions is essential to limit operational downtime and any financial losses. With growing energy costs and environmental concerns, energy efficiency is a top priority so commercial buildings are increasingly incorporating energy-efficient systems, such as LED lighting, smart HVAC systems, and energy management systems (EMS) to optimize power usage and reduce waste. In addition, building owners and operators must meet local building codes and energy regulations that govern power consumption, energy efficiency, and sustainability.
Many commercial buildings are connected to smart grids, leverage renewable energy sources to produce and operate off clean power and participate in demand response programs, where they adjust their energy usage based on real-time grid conditions. This helps stabilize the power grid during peak periods and reduces electricity costs by using energy more efficiently.
As the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and electric transportation increases, the power infrastructure needed to support EV technology grows. The commercial power needs for EVs are complex and require businesses to invest in charging infrastructure, manage their impact on the grid, and optimize their energy use. With a focus on renewable energy, smart grid solutions, and efficient energy management, businesses can meet the rising demand for EV charging and contribute to sustainability goals.
Power needs for commercial buildings are multidimensional and require a combination of reliable energy supply, energy-efficient systems, and renewable energy integration. Businesses must manage increasing energy costs and widespread regulatory and marketplace pressures to increase sustainability. As a result, they are optimizing power use through smart technology, energy management systems, backup solutions and renewable energy resources. By leveraging these strategies, commercial buildings can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and support environmental goals while maintaining reliable operations.
Effective power distribution systems are vital to ensure that electricity is properly allocated to different sections of a building. This includes transformers, circuit breakers, and distribution panels that manage and protect the electrical flow to various parts of the building. Transformers adjust the voltage level of electricity to meet the needs of multiple systems within the building. For example, step-down transformers reduce voltage for usage inside the building and step-up transformers can be used to increase voltage for specialized systems. Switchgear is a critical component of electrical systems used to control, protect, and isolate electrical equipment to safely manage electrical power flow.
