Energy Savings & Equipment Reliability
Unified Automation, Analytics, and Open Protocol Integration

Niagara brings edge intelligence and enterprise analytics together to cut energy costs, extend equipment life, and raise uptime—without locking you into a single vendor

Why Energy Optimization Matters

Energy is one of the largest controllable expenses in buildings. Inefficient scheduling, sensor drift, and equipment wear silently inflate utility bills. Niagara addresses this through unified visibility, automated control logic, and real‑time analytics across HVAC, lighting, power, and renewables.

Edge Intelligence Controller

• Multi‑protocol integration (BACnet, Modbus, KNX, OPC, SNMP)
• Local demand‑based control for chillers, pumps, and AHUs
• Trend logs of temperature, pressure, kW for optimization
• Secure connectivity with TLS; autonomous operation at the edge

Portfolio‑Wide Energy Management with Supervisor N4

Supervisor aggregates data from all sites for dashboards, benchmarking, and reporting. Automate alerts for off‑normal operation, implement demand response, and track KPIs like kWh/m², CO₂ intensity, and ROI.

Equipment Reliability & Life Extension

Niagara supports predictive maintenance and automated fault detection & diagnostics (FDD), helping you catch issues before failures occur. By integrating VFDs and intelligent sequences, motors and pumps avoid hard starts and operate at optimal speeds—reducing mechanical stress and extending lifespan.

Examples:
• VFD ramping reduces water hammer and mechanical shock on pumps
• FDD flags sensor faults, economizer issues, and abnormal cycling
• Predictive analytics forecast time‑to‑failure from trends

Open Protocol & 3rd‑Party Integration

Connect to smart meters, solar inverters, power analyzers, lighting panels, and controllers such as EDGE‑10, ISMA, Honeywell, Johnson Controls, and Distech. Scale without vendor lock‑in.

Results & ROI

Typical outcomes:
• 10–35% energy reduction with optimized control & scheduling
• Fewer breakdowns and longer asset life via predictive maintenance
• 12-45 month payback in many deployments
