The mandatory Building Automation and Control Systems (GACS) are still limited to non-residential buildings with an installation capacity of 290 kW. However, this limit will be lowered to 70 kW by 2030. This means that a much larger number of buildings will then have to meet the new requirements for energy efficiency and sustainable management.
That's why owners of non-residential buildings are advised to prepare for these changes now and invest in smart building automation. GACS offers the opportunity to better manage and improve technical systems such as climate control, lighting, and security. By integrating these systems, a cohesive whole is created that contributes to a comfortable and sustainable indoor climate.
By using GACS, property owners can not only comply with new regulations but also reduce their operating costs and increase the value of their properties. Smart monitoring and data analysis are key in this regard, enabling owners to quickly perform maintenance and improve energy consumption.
Implementing GACS requires an organized approach. Start by taking stock of existing systems and establishing clear goals for sustainability and building management. Choose integrated solutions that communicate with each other. This ensures rapid management and a better user experience.
By proactively addressing upcoming obligations, property owners can not only comply with legal requirements but also reduce risks. This is an opportunity to safeguard the future of their building and contribute to a more sustainable world.
