Despite the endorsement of green building regulations and the incorporation of energy-efficient technologies, commercial buildings often fail to achieve their desired energy conservation goals.
Instead, they use as much as 3 times their predicted energy consumption (pEUI), representing a significant building energy performance gap.

“Taking inspiration from President John F. Kennedy’s Moonshot which united millions of people around an organizing goal to put man on the moon and catalysed the development of new technology in the 1960s, The Earthshot Prize is centered around five ‘Earthshots’ – simple but ambitious goals for our planet which if achieved by 2030 will improve life for us all, for generations to come.”

The buildings sector is responsible for 40% of national and global energy-related CO₂ emissions, making it a critical component of carbon reduction strategies.
Effectively reaching carbon reduction targets will require advanced building automation and control systems.
In addition to providing CO₂ emission mitigation, increasing building energy efficiency also has multiple co-benefits such as improving occupant comfort and worker productivity, while accelerating economic growth and job creation.
Additionally, previous work shows that demand-side changes in energy efficiency can more cost-effectively reduce CO₂ emissions than supply-side improvements in the carbon intensity of electricity generation—even after accounting for the dramatic cost reductions in renewable generation in recent years. Furthermore, lacking large-scale, cost-effective reserve capacity or electricity storage alternatives, demand-side energy flexibility is needed to accommodate the variability inherent in renewable generation at high penetration levels. C³ building automation and controls provide a reproducible CO₂ emissions reduction pathway to meet the Earthshot Prize goal of reducing carbon emissions in our atmosphere.¹
