TAIPEI 101 and Siemens Ltd., Taiwan recently signed a memorandum of understanding that paves the way for the adoption of Siemens Navigator, the latest cloud-based building energy and sustainability management platform.
Built with powerful reporting and analytic capabilities, Navigator provides higher quality energy management services to tenants and is able to process massive amounts of data, effectively monitoring and analyzing information to offer building owners with more effective energy management strategies.
Chairman Joseph Teyu Chou of TAIPEI 101 stated: "TAIPEI 101 is looking to fulfill its corporate social responsibility by continuing to improve its energy sustainability and reduce the building's impact on the environment. TAIPEI 101 hopes to be not only environmentally friendly, but also intelligent. In today's digital age, innovative technology can make a building smarter and forge a more comfortable, safer and energy friendly interior environment. As a smart, green super skyscraper, TAIPEI 101 will set the global benchmark in intelligent performance management."
Siemens Ltd., Taiwan President and CEO Erdal Elver remarked: "Siemens has been one of the key solution providers of TAIPEI 101 since the building's planning stage. Innovative building technologies have assisted TAIPEI 101 become a world-class office building and shopping destination, and made it the world's tallest green building. With an eye toward the future, TAIPEI 101 has decided to connect to Navigator the cloud-based building energy and sustainability management platform. We are deeply proud that we are able to take our long-term cooperative partnership to a new level."
Peter Halliday, Head of Building Performance & Sustainability Building Technologies Division
Siemens AG, commented: "The digital age is ushering in the rapid development of smart buildings. With our cloud-based energy and sustainability management platform Navigator, we are turning the enormous amount of data generated by buildings into extremely valuable information, especially in terms of enhancing energy efficiency. Operating costs account for 71% of the total cost of a building’s ownership, and energy represents 30% of operating costs. In other words, boosting a building's energy efficiency reduces operating costs and increases profits, and is the best path in strengthening corporate competitiveness."
