Facilities
Energy management for complex facilities: hospitals, logistics centres, industrial campuses and industrial parks, with connected monitoring and a unified view of consumption across all buildings.
Energy management for complex facilities: overview
Captia Energy manages the energy layer of complex facilities: hospitals, logistics centres, industrial campuses and industrial parks. Each of these sites behaves like several buildings at once, with multiple supply points and very different uses per zone. Our starting point is measurement: connected energy management measures consumption per zone, building or use and unifies the data in a single view integrated with the facility’s activity. On that basis, the energy efficiency solution sets consumption against real activity and proposes prioritised measures per zone, often including the fit of a self-consumption photovoltaic installation sized on the real load profile. The documentation layer completes the service: Electrical Installation Certificates, technical reports and energy certifications, kept in order so extensions and renovations are not blocked by missing paperwork. For the facility-wide data layer connecting distributed control systems, see Captia Connect for industrial facilities. Projects start with a situation study and a phased plan, beginning with measurement.
Frequently asked questions
- What do you mean by "complex facilities"?
- Facilities where energy is distributed across multiple buildings, zones or uses: hospitals, logistics centres, industrial campuses, industrial parks. They have several supply points, very different consumption patterns and often continuous operation, which a spreadsheet and a monthly bill cannot manage.
- How is energy monitored across a multi-building facility?
- By measuring per zone, building or use and unifying the data in a single connected view. The facility manager can see what each area consumes, compare periods, detect deviations and relate consumption to real activity. Our connected energy management solution is designed for this multi-point scenario.
- Do you also handle technical documentation for large facilities?
- Yes. We process installation certificates for supply connections, extensions and legalisations, plus technical reports and energy certifications when required. In facilities with several supply points, keeping that documentation in order avoids blockages in power increases, renovations and supply contracting.
- Does self-consumption make sense for a logistics centre or campus?
- It is often one of the best-fitting cases: large roofs, relevant daytime consumption and stable demand. Even so, a serious answer requires a preliminary study of the real load profile, which determines sizing, surplus management and payback before deciding on the investment.
