Detailed Description
Energy Efficiency
The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation
Innovation
Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description
We are four students studying energy technology at Odisee in Ghent. We are Jordy De Ridder, Emiel Corbanie, Warre Bijls and Ellen Himpe. There were already five KNX cases where all the necessary basic components were available for the students.
From next year we want to be the first school where it is possible to get a KNX advanced certificate. For this, the cases must be expanded with components on which KNX advanced can be practiced. Once the cases are expanded, it is possible to practice KNX advanced during the lab sessions and then take the exam for KNX advanced later.
