More than a third of real estate professionals are thinking about using artificial intelligence (AI) in their buildings. 32 percent are already actively using AI. This is the result of a recent study by energy service provider Techem. The study shows that the greatest benefits of AI are expected in measures for CO2 reduction (53 percent) and adaptive learning, such as adjusting the heating temperature to user behavior (52 percent). Nevertheless, many see a lack of specialist knowledge (64%) and high costs (44%) as barriers to implementation.
Karl Kornwolf, Head of Business Platforms at Techem, emphasizes the need to develop easy-to-implement and cost-effective AI solutions to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions in buildings. According to the survey, 77 percent consider AI-supported heating optimizations to be effective climate protection measures.
Techem's data shows that such systems can save an average of 15 percent energy. These solutions are not only cost-efficient, but also require no structural interventions and make it easy to implement optimizations. For the study, 100 business people from the real estate sector were surveyed.
