NHS hospitals set to compete in sustainability competition

Hospitals across the NHS have been invited to take part in an awards scheme recognising the best projects for saving energy and cutting waste, a recent news report has been able to reveal.

The NHS Sustainability Awards are backed by Barts Health Trust and the Sustainable Development Unit and they're free to enter. Awards categories include areas such as IT, human resources, procurement, energy, water and waste, plus behavioural change.

The panel of nine judges includes Kim Ormsby, the national head of CSR & Sustainability for NHS Property Services and Julian Amey, Chief Executive of the Institute of Healthcare Engineering and Estate Management.

Advanced BEMS (Building Energy Management System) solutions represent one of the top energy efficiency measures organizations of any scope and size can turn to, given the fact that they enable a superior level of control over the heating system and its extensive optimization, thus leading to lower overall consumption levels.

And this is exactly where the HeatingSave system might prove its worth, since our solution allows customers to achieve immediately savings of up to 30%+ on their energy bills. This is achieved by optimizing the energy consumption levels within any building with the help of an advanced heat-loss algorithm that creates a specific profile for any building and based on that, switches heating on later if its warm and off earlier if its cold.

It also automatically adjusts your boiler depending on how warm it is outside — save up to another 10%.

Furthermore, the system also offers an advanced automatic occupancy detection system that allows the temperature to reduce to a background when areas are not used and quickly brought up to temperature when they are being used.
