Smart building creates green business opportunities


The annual growth rate of the total investment in the domestic intelligent building market will exceed 20%, and the total size will reach 50 billion yuan by 2010.

Compared with the peak hours of the morning flight arrivals, the number of passengers at the Beijing International Airport No. 1 after 10 o'clock in the evening began to decrease significantly. At the same time, the light in the halls of the flight halls gradually dimmed because the lighting and air conditioning systems The reduction in the flow of people automatically reduces the energy consumption. This is the intelligent building management system of the intelligent building solutions provider United States Johnson Controls completed in 2005. The system can adjust the relevant data according to the flight entry and exit status and actual flow scenarios, and adjust energy efficiency in real time to achieve the lowest energy. Consumption.

Relevant data show that the total investment in China's smart building market is growing at a rate of 20%-30% per year. It is expected that the market size will reach 50 billion yuan by 2010. The growing market demand has attracted a large number of software and hardware manufacturers, from GE, Siemens, Johnson Controls, Cisco, IBM and other international giants to Peking University Jade Bird, Tai Chi Computer, Tsinghua Tongfang, TCL and other well-known domestic IT vendors and integrators. Has joined the fierce competition in the domestic intelligent building integration market.
Energy-saving engineering business opportunities emerge

At present, China's key energy-saving projects are mainly concentrated in 10 aspects, and the markets that these 10 key projects can generate can be divided into two categories: one is the development of alternative energy, such as replacing petroleum engineering; the other is energy conservation. Types, such as building energy-saving projects, government agencies energy-saving projects, coal-fired industrial boilers (kiln) renovation projects.

Qiu Baoxing, deputy director of the Ministry of Construction of China, pointed out that by the end of 2010, the energy consumption of buildings in all cities in China is expected to be reduced by 50%, and 25% of existing residential and public buildings in large cities in China will be rebuilt. For companies and organizations engaged in “green” and sustainable building products and services, China has provided them with a huge city’s smart building as a competitive focus.

Intelligent building refers to the application of emerging information technology with computer and network as the core in the traditional building field, including "5A" system, namely building equipment (BAS), communication (CAS), office (OAS), security (SAS) and Fire Alarm (FAS) 5 automation systems.

"China's intelligent building industry has been developed for 10 years with the establishment of the Intelligent Building Technology Development and Promotion Center of the Ministry of Construction Science and Technology Commission. It has reached the stage of promoting mature technology." Deputy Director and Secretary General of the Intelligent Building Committee of China Construction Industry Association Huang Jiu-song said that taking the HVAC system as an example, if the systems work independently, the terminal system does not know whether the user needs heat supply. At the moment, many buildings are artificially controlled, and it is impossible to achieve precise control like intelligent, which will result in waste of energy.

At present, the field of intelligent buildings has become a must for manufacturers. Recently, Tongfang Digital City successfully signed an intelligent project for the maintenance and renovation of Beijing Xinhua News Agency News Building. It is understood that Tsinghua Tongfang will further integrate various control systems into IT systems, such as content management and business intelligence.
Intelligent building manufacturers face integration

“Our building was built in accordance with the 5A standard. From the time it was put into use 3 years ago, many functions have not been able to perform as expected, and even some functions have never been used.” A senior office property manager in Beijing complained. He attributed these problems to the lack of unified design and integrated integration of his building's intelligent systems.

This customer demand has long been seen by smart building solution providers. “The project's general contract is a major trend in the current bidding of the owners. Our contracts are generally signed with the general contractor.” An integrator from Zhongguancun, which focuses on network products and cabling, said.

In this regard, at the Guangzhou Refrigeration Exhibition on April 4 this year, Johnson Controls of the United States exhibited its “one-stop” solution, including sustainable energy management solutions and professional project management programs. “The one-stop solution will bring about 5% discount to customers' purchase of equipment.” Sun Yongming, vice president of the Asia-based self-control facility benefit business, said that after the company acquired York in December 2005, it became intelligent control and warm. A “all-round” service provider for air conditioning and refrigeration equipment, lighting, fire protection and safety.
