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
Anforderung an das Projekt ist eine generationenübergreifend, einfach gehaltene Gebäudeautomation.
Das Energieeffizienzhaus in Holz-Ständerbauweise der Firma Fingerhaus soll vor Überhitzung in den warmen, sonnigen Monaten geschützt werden.
Gleichzeitig soll durch Beleuchtungs- und Verschattungssteuerung, sowie Heizungs- und Verschattungsregelung ein hoher Komfortstadard erreicht werden.
Eine Visualisierung der Anlage soll kostengünstig und mit moderatem Aufwand, über Node-Red, auf einem Raspberry-Pi, als Webserver zur Verfügung gestellt werden.
