Compass BE

Energy costs are controllable. Most organisations just lack the AI to do it. Compass BE changes that: agents that monitor your entire building portfolio continuously, optimise in real time, and keep energy spend as low as physics allows.

Built for TNE Building Energy and deployed via Orion, Compass BE integrates with BEMS, BMS, and IoT sensor networks without replacing existing infrastructure.

What Compass BE Does

Thermal load and HVAC management:

  • Real-time thermal load equalisation across buildings and campus zones
  • HVAC optimisation — occupancy-aware, weather-adaptive, energy-price-responsive
  • Demand response automation — shift loads during peak pricing windows automatically
  • Fault detection and predictive maintenance for HVAC and building plant

Structural health monitoring:

  • Water incursion detection via moisture sensors and thermal imaging analysis
  • Vibration monitoring for foundation and structural frame anomalies
  • Early-warning alerts that extend building life by up to 2x by catching damage before it becomes structural

Design-phase integration (patent-pending):

  • Energy modelling at the design stage for new construction using pre-pack (modular prefabricated) building strategies
  • Optimises thermal performance, orientation, insulation, and HVAC sizing before build — lowering energy use permanently rather than retrofitting

Reporting and compliance:

  • Energy consumption dashboards and trend analysis
  • Carbon footprint reporting for ESG disclosure and green building certification
  • Integration with existing BEMS, BMS, and facility management platforms

Integrations

Compass BE connects to BEMS and BMS platforms, IoT sensor networks, utility demand-response APIs, and weather data feeds. It adds an AI optimisation layer above current systems — your facilities teams keep their existing workflows; Compass BE acts autonomously within defined parameters and surfaces exceptions.
