Innovation: HVAC energy saving technology in partnership with Cresstec

BGIS partnered with innovative company Cresstec to deliver an energy saving technology that utilises Artificial Intelligence for client, Australian Government Department of Defence.

The technology, called REED HVAC-R, is a retrofittable, refrigerant management and energy saving technology for commercial HVAC and refrigerant equipment. REED works by opening the systems refrigerant circuit allowing for dynamic refrigerant optimisation to perfectly match the demand and environment requirements. REED harvest and stores refrigerant energy normally lost through system operation and uses this energy to save electricity and reduce system wear. REED continually diagnoses, predicts, and notifies stakeholders about possible faults, allowing for proactive maintenance.

In 2023 this innovation won the prestigious RICS Australia Innovation Award. In 2024 this innovation won the Security and Estate Group 2023 Base Services Innovation of the Year award.
