High Energy Costs and Inefficient Billing
Shangri-La The Shard, a luxury hotel in one of London’s most iconic buildings, faced challenges with energy efficiency and invoicing discrepancies. Rising operational costs, inefficient BMS control logic, and suboptimal equipment scheduling led to excessive energy consumption and unnecessary expenses. Key challenges included:
Unoptimized invoicing processes, leading to inaccurate billing and increased costs.
Inefficient BMS control logic, causing unnecessary energy consumption.
Lack of optimized equipment schedules and operation parameters, reducing system efficiency.
To achieve cost savings and improve operational efficiency, the hotel required a comprehensive energy and invoicing optimization strategy.
ESOS Assessment and System Optimization
Optymass implemented a detailed ESOS (Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme) assessment and executed key system optimizations to maximize efficiency and financial savings.
Invoicing Analysis & Optimization: Identified billing discrepancies and implemented corrective measures to ensure accurate invoicing and cost reductions.
BMS Control Logic Enhancements: Adjusted automation settings to reduce unnecessary energy use and improve overall efficiency.
Equipment Scheduling & Setpoint Optimization: Fine-tuned operation schedules and temperature setpoints for optimal energy performance.
These targeted interventions provided the hotel with greater financial control, improved efficiency, and enhanced sustainability.
Significant Financial & Environmental Impact
Following Optymass's optimization efforts, Shangri-La The Shard achieved measurable improvements:
Total Cost Savings: $153,346 annually
Energy Efficiency Gains: 11% reduction in overall energy consumption
CO2 Reduction: 886.1 tonnes of emissions eliminated—equivalent to removing approximately 192 cars from the road annually
The improvements resulted in lower operational costs, improved billing accuracy, and reduced carbon emissions, aligning with Shangri-La’s sustainability goals.
