Building Automation Engineering

Energy Efficiency built into design

In the Gulf region’s extreme climate, energy efficiency isn’t an add-on, it’s essential. Clenergize embeds energy-saving strategies into every building automation design from the start, focusing on both operational performance and compliance with green building standards like LEED, Estidama, and Dubai’s Green Building Regulations. With cooling loads often dominating utility bills in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, we prioritize smart HVAC and lighting control to reduce energy consumption without compromising comfort.

Our control logic includes HVAC zoning, scheduling, and demand-controlled ventilation based on occupancy and CO₂ sensors, ensuring systems only operate when needed. For example, a Riyadh office tower may have zones that activate based on real-time use, with chilled water systems responding through staged sequencing for optimal efficiency. We program economizer modes, soft-starts, and demand limiting to avoid energy spikes, and integrate with district cooling or thermal storage systems where applicable.

Lighting automation is equally vital. We design DALI-enabled lighting systems with motion sensors, scheduled dimming, and daylight harvesting to adapt lighting levels to real conditions. In hospitals, malls, or large offices, these controls can reduce lighting energy use by up to 30%, while extending lamp life and cutting maintenance costs. Our documentation ensures contractors implement the logics correctly, and during commissioning we fine-tune settings for both savings and occupant comfort.

We also build in real-time energy monitoring through the BMS. Sub-meters for HVAC, lighting, and major loads feed into dashboards where facilities teams can track consumption trends, receive alerts, and generate reports aligned with LEED or Estidama credits. If energy use exceeds set thresholds, for example, a stuck AHU or lighting left on, the system flags it instantly. These insights support measurement and verification (M&V) and simplify compliance with DEWA, SEC, or other local utility requirements.

Most importantly, efficiency is embedded in every sequence, sensor, and specification. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), well-implemented BMS can reduce energy use by up to 30%, and with Clenergize’s engineering, those savings are not just possible but expected. Our designs help reduce operating costs, extend equipment life, and contribute to broader sustainability goals such as UAE Net Zero 2050 or Saudi Vision 2030. From day one, your BMS becomes a driver of smart, sustainable performance.
