ClimaWISE for Land-based

Running is not the same as performing.

Your BMS says the system is running. Your energy bill says something else. Your ESG report needs numbers you can defend. ClimaWISE builds the thermodynamic fingerprint of your installation, measured continuously and supplemented by AI where it adds certainty. We show you exactly what it is doing and what it is costing you.

The land-based challenge

Your system has two monitoring systems.
Neither caught the leak.

Buildings rely on periodic maintenance intervals by a service engineer or facility staff without deep technical visibility. This gap allows leaks to persist for months. In a hospital case, the BMS and the supplier failed to see the drift. ClimaWISE identified the anomaly at 3%.

Real case · Large hospital
0%

Refrigerant loss in one chiller before detection. Two monitoring systems active. Neither caught it early.

Resulting emission
0 ton

CO₂-equivalent from the undetected leak. More than most buildings emit in total energy use per year.

Detection threshold
0% vs 0%

ClimaWISE detects refrigerant anomalies at 3% loss. This building's systems detected at 80%.

This is not an isolated incident. Refrigerant leakage is endemic in large HVAC-R systems. The problem is not the equipment. It is the absence of a system that understands the thermodynamic fingerprint well enough to detect what the sensors cannot see.

The monitoring gap

A BMS reads status. ClimaWISE reads performance.

Your building management system confirms the installation is running and presents the associated sensor data. It cannot determine if that operation is correct based on your real time load, outdoor conditions, or the actual refrigerant charge. ClimaWISE validates the physics behind the data.

Same system. Same moment. Different story.

What a BMS does
  • Reads sensor values: temperatures, pressures, flow rates
  • Triggers alarms when values exceed thresholds
  • Shows you the system is "running"
  • Compares to fixed setpoints set at commissioning
  • Accepts performance drift as a normal state
  • Fails to compensate for changing thermodynamic conditions
What ClimaWISE does
  • Calculates the thermodynamic fingerprint of your system
  • Detects performance drift before an alarm ever goes off
  • Shows if the system delivers the performance it was designed for
  • Shows the real impact of operator changes instead of guessing
  • Detects refrigerant leaks at 3% loss before they become a problem
  • Provides the data to make sustainability and ESG goals real
Where the pressure is highest

Every large building faces the same problem. The stakes differ.

Data centres

PUE under pressure

Cooling accounts for 30% to 40% of total data centre energy consumption. Growing AI workloads drive demand higher every year. Every point of PUE improvement is measurable in millions. ClimaWISE monitors cooling plant efficiency continuously and identifies exactly where PUE is being lost.

Cooling = 30–40% of total DC energy use

Hospitals

CO₂ targets. 24/7 reliability.

Hospitals cannot afford downtime. They face Paris Proof obligations and increasingly strict CO2 reporting requirements. ClimaWISE delivers both continuous reliability monitoring and the evidence trail needed for CO2 reduction reporting.

1,300 ton CO₂, one undetected leak, one hospital

Government buildings

Leading by example

Government facilities are the frontrunners in energy regulation. This includes Paris Proof 2030, CSRD reporting, and energy label obligations. ClimaWISE provides the continuous measurement and provable savings data that makes compliance real instead of just claimed.

CSRD requires provable data, not estimates

Industry & large facilities

Scale multiplies the problem

Large cooling plants with multiple chillers and complex distribution networks accumulate drift faster than anyone can manually track. ClimaWISE monitors all circuits simultaneously and prioritizes findings by energy impact.

5–35% energy savings. Measurable. Traceable.
What we find in every building

Every installation we connect to shows the same pattern.

The systems are different. The findings are consistent.

01Hidden CO₂

Refrigerant loss undetected

Chillers lose charge gradually. Efficiency drops and compressors work harder while CO2 impact accumulates. Standard detection methods catch the leak far too late.

02Coordination

Chillers not coordinated

Multiple chillers running independently instead of in optimised sequence. Each doing its own thing. Combined efficiency far below potential.

03Heat rejection

Cooling tower performance degraded

Fouling, scaling, or airflow issues reducing heat rejection capacity. The chiller compensates by working harder. Standard systems fail to connect these two.

0410 → 95%

Air handling units out of control

Fresh air ratios fluctuate between 10% and 95% when they should stay stable and better based on CO₂. This causes enormous energy waste by conditioning outdoor air that is not needed.

05Legacy setpoints

Controls not adapted to the site

Setpoints were defined at commissioning years ago for different conditions. These are never updated. The system operates on assumptions that no longer reflect what is required today.

06ΔT collapse

Flow rates mismatch

Delta T collapse occurs in chilled water systems. Pumps work at full speed while delivering less cooling than the system thinks. Energy is wasted and capacity is lost.

These are not exceptions. These are standard findings in buildings that passed their last energy audit, in systems with active BMS monitoring, and in facilities where the installer says everything is fine based on the data they have.

For installers and service partners

ClimaWISE is not a replacement. It's a superpower.

Installers are experts at installing and servicing. They are not set up to provide continuous performance monitoring between visits. This is not a criticism, it is a structural gap. ClimaWISE fills that gap and works alongside installers instead of against them.

For the installer

  • Know exactly what to fix before you arrive on site
  • Prove the impact of your work with before/after data
  • Offer performance contracts backed by real measurement
  • Differentiate from competitors with data-driven service

For the building owner

  • Independent performance monitoring between service visits
  • Evidence that the work of your installer delivered results
  • One platform across all your sites and systems

For both

  • No conflict of interest, ClimaWISE monitors, installers fix
  • Shared dashboard, both parties see the same data
  • Findings prioritised by energy impact and urgency

Frequently asked questions

Common questions, straight answers

How do I detect a refrigerant leak in my building's HVAC system before it wastes energy?

In a small leak, a chiller slowly loses refrigerant. Efficiency drops and compressors have to work harder, while the CO₂ impact adds up. Standard detection methods catch the leak far too late, often only after 80% of the charge is gone. ClimaWISE detects refrigerant loss at just a 3% deviation through continuous thermodynamic analysis.

How can I lower energy costs from multiple chillers running inefficiently?

Multiple chillers running independently instead of in an optimised sequence all do their own thing, keeping combined efficiency far below potential. ClimaWISE identifies sequencing inefficiencies and delivers the data needed to properly coordinate chiller staging.

How does cooling tower fouling increase my chiller's energy consumption?

Fouling, scaling, or airflow issues reduce heat rejection capacity. The chiller compensates by working harder, consuming more energy and accelerating wear. Standard monitoring systems fail to connect cooling tower degradation to chiller overload. ClimaWISE tracks the full chain from heat rejection to compressor load.

How can I reduce energy waste from my building's air handling units?

Outdoor air ratios swing between 10% and 95% when they should stay stable and demand-driven based on CO₂ levels. This wastes enormous energy conditioning outdoor air that isn't needed. ClimaWISE identifies AHU control faults through continuous tracking of ventilation efficiency.

Why are my building's outdated HVAC setpoints wasting energy?

Control setpoints were locked in at commissioning years ago for conditions that no longer exist. They are never updated, so the system runs on assumptions that no longer match current requirements. ClimaWISE compares actual system behaviour to thermodynamic reality to pinpoint where setpoints have drifted from optimal.

Why is my chilled water pump running at full speed but not cooling enough?

Delta-T collapse occurs when the temperature difference across a chilled water loop drops below design value. Pumps run at full speed while delivering less cooling than the system expects, wasting energy and reducing available capacity. ClimaWISE detects delta-T collapse through continuous flow and temperature analysis.
