IoT sensors: a key lever for carbon neutrality

Understanding the importance of measuring CO₂

CO₂, also known as carbon dioxide, is a greenhouse gas measured in ppm (parts per million). Although invisible, its accumulation has a direct impact on the climate and on companies' energy consumption. Yet, without reliable data, it's impossible to know where to act and how companies can optimize energy use in buildings or infrastructures.
IoT sensors make it possible to quantify CO₂ concentration in real time, while providing companies with essential information on their overall energy performance. They offer decision-makers precise indicators to guide their actions and improve corporate energy management. This is the essential first step before any sustainable energy reduction and efficiency strategy for companies committed to carbon neutrality.

IoT, a major lever for the energy transition

The energy transition means rethinking not only our consumption and production patterns, but also the way we use energy on a daily basis. In this context, the IoT has become an essential tool:

• It makes visible data that was previously difficult to collect, particularly on energy use.

• It enables continuous, automated monitoring of emissions, directly linked to energy performance.

• It encourages a long-term vision, essential for achieving carbon neutrality targets and optimizing available energy.

With Nexelec sensors integrated into buildings, factories or public infrastructures, it becomes possible to quickly identify sources of energy waste and CO₂, in order to take concrete action.

Concrete, measurable action

Installing sensors means moving from intention to tangible action. Unlike purely strategic or theoretical approaches, IoT integration provides concrete evidence and relies on reliable systems for a more sustainable future :

• Continuous monitoring of CO₂ levels thanks to connected systems that support sustainable development.

• Detection of anomalies or emission peaks via intelligent systems designed for sustainable impact.

• Implementation of rapid corrective plans made possible by the analysis of data systems in a sustainable logic.

This enables us not only to make progress towards carbon neutrality, but also to prove, with figures to back them up, the efforts made thanks to high-performance measurement and control systems, essential for a truly sustainable future.

A dual benefit: environmental and economic

Achieving carbon neutrality should not be seen solely as a regulatory constraint. IoT sensors also offer a return on investment thanks to the data they continuously collect and the concrete solutions they provide.
By optimizing energy consumption and identifying waste, organizations rely on reliable data and innovative technological solutions to achieve significant savings.
In this way, the integration of Nexelec sensors reconciles sustainability and cost-effectiveness, while providing valuable data and sustainable solutions to drive environmental strategy, making it a strategic choice among the best solutions available on the market.

Towards a more sustainable and eco-responsible future

By integrating IoT sensors into their strategy, companies don't just reduce their emissions: they optimize their use of energy, improve their energy efficiency and strengthen the management of their resources. In this way, they are actively participating in the fight against climate change.
The objective is clear: to create a future that is more respectful of the environment and energy, where every action, whether in terms of energy production, consumption or storage, is part of better overall management.
Sensors thus become a concrete lever for transforming the way we use energy, guaranteeing more efficient management and a better balance between economic performance and energy sobriety.

Training and maintaining performance

Training must enable them to master the interface, interpret the data and carry out annual preventive maintenance on equipment in line with the requirements of the BACS decree, in order to improve output, overall performance and generate significant savings in commercial buildings. Regular performance monitoring is based on precise information and is then essential, year after year, to remain in line with the BACS decree, optimize plant output, maximize energy savings and ensure the sustainability of equipment and commercial buildings.

The data and information collected must be analyzed every year to quickly correct any drift, improve operational performance, guarantee the durability of equipment and maintain a high level of savings. Preventive maintenance relies on reliable information to extend the service life of commercial buildings, while meeting the performance and savings targets set by the BACS decree, year after year.
