The objective of the technology will be to increase energy efficiencies of the buildings, as well as the lifecycle potential of their customers\u2019 real estate assets.<\/p>\n<p>Siemens claims customers using their platform currently save 10.5 million tons of CO2 per year, though by incorporating Capgemini\u2019s IoT, data analytics, and cloud capabilities, the ambition is to extend and drive this digital transformation project, in a phased approach.<\/p>\n<p>The smart building industry has been gathering momentum in the last few months, though hasn\u2019t been grabbing the same headlines as autonomous cars or the overarching smart cities projects. One <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marketsandmarkets.com\/PressReleases\/smart-building.asp\">estimate<\/a> puts market value as high as $36 billion in 2020, highlighting that buildings can consume anywhere between 20-40% of the total energy intake of a country, creating a lucrative market for potential IoT vendors. While energy efficiency is one of the more obvious drivers for smart buildings initiatives, safety and security factors have also enhanced the growth of this market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Internet of Things is a massive accelerator for digital transformation,\u201d said Capgemini\u2019s Olivier Sevillia. \u201cBuilding a consistent strategy and providing an innovative platform for IoT services is an asset that companies can leverage for the benefit of their clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis cloud based data driven services project will make the widespread benefits of connected buildings a reality for Siemens Building Technologies\u2019 real estate customers, helping them to make more informed business decisions and realise operating efficiencies. Capgemini will support this roll-out from strategy development through to implementation and integration.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Capgemini and Siemens&rsquo; Building Technologies division have announced a new partnership to develop analytics-based services for the smart buildings space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":105,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2484,893,1909,1976,4023,4232,2171],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22763","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-capgemini","category-internet-of-things","category-iot","category-news-analysis","category-partnership","category-siemens","category-smart-cities"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22763","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/105"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22763"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22763\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22764,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22763\/revisions\/22764"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22763"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22763"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icloud.pe\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22763"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
