Innovation and Eco-efficiency in the hotel sector. Equs as a differential tool

The hotel sector behaves in a stable way, with great flexibility to adapt to changes, a sector that attracts more and more attention from companies and brands from other productive sectors.

Innovation is an essential way to face growing competition in new destinations and to differentiate and add value to the hotel product in an over-crowded market with increasingly demanding customers. It is recognized that innovation in products and services in the hotel sector is the critical factor for the success of the business.

Today the emphasis is on ensuring that hotels are eco-efficient in their broadest sense. It means being able to remotely control and manage aspects such as lighting, air conditioning or water consumption for the manager of the establishment. Going a step further and within the most innovative hotel services offered to the customer, it is already possible to provide access to the control of your room through your mobile device, encouraging you with awards for being a “green customer”.

The EQUS platform is the ideal tool to guarantee the energy efficiency of the hotels, as well as the thermal comfort, the well-being of the people, the quality of the interior air and the health of its occupants. EQUS deals with the communication and management of the control and automation system installed in the hotel, allowing to act remotely on the different installations (lighting, air conditioning, ACS).

The EQUS platform is thus among the most complete on the market in the field of eco-efficiency for hotel chains and their customers, already implanted in the Latin American hotel sector. Mexico or Panama are countries where the platform is already having a very good reception.

Neuronal Innovation Control S.L. in the framework of the ICEX Next Export Initiation Program, has the support of ICEX and the co-financing of the European ERDF fund. The purpose of this support is to contribute to the international development of the company and its environment.

EQUS in the prestigious journal “Applied Energy”

Last April, the prestigious scientific journal “Applied Energy” has published the article “A simple model for automatic analysis and diagnosis of environmental thermal comfort in energy efficient buildings”, where it presents ventilation systems and air-conditioning mathematical modelling based on the analysis of a low number of environmental variables. This study was done in cooperation among different research groups in Galician universities.

The energy management platform EQUS was used to development this study. Equs is a tool that allows the monitoring and control in the facilities, which has been designed under Big Data criteria.

Thanks to your own SCADA system (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), you can control the remote units and you can improve the data analysis for in order to do this study.

Within the conclusions contained in this article, it is remarkable that thanks to tools as complete as the EQUS platform, it is possible to have a considerable valuable information in order to understand and predict the environmental variable behaviour and the consumption with margins of error almost negligible.

The journal “Applied Energy” is specialized in I+D+i studies of energy and environmental sustainability areas.

EQUS  continues with the cooperation of differents research groups for the development of news and innovative studies within energy efficiency, confirming the advantages that this tool offers against others presents in the market.
