Intelligent backbone in FIFA stadia will ensure ROI (23/10/09) |
 |
 |
 |
|
The design and implementation of an intelligent backbone at both Cape Town’s Green Point Stadium and Port Elizabeth’s Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is not only helping to make them showpieces for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, but will also ensure their owners achieve maximum return on investment (ROI).
The stadia’s data and electronic services, for example telephony and lighting control, will operate on the intelligent electronic transmission backbone within each of these stadia, making them intelligent infrastructures. The intelligent backbone makes use of Information Technology (IT), which is reliant on structured cabling systems.

Energy dashboards – the key to sustainability (06/10/09) |
|
|
|
|
Pivotal to the fast-accelerating global emphasis on green in non-residential construction, is the Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard (EEED). The EEED can be seen as the conduit or medium that ensures business intelligence – technology and collected information – is interpreted in the correct way and results in energy efficiency and sustainability.
Bradley Hemphill, Managing Director of Electrical Engineering Solutions (EES) explains that technology can only make a real impact if it is converted into comprehensible information which will guide the user towards a desired objective or outcome.

Intelligent infrastructure achieves substantial energy savings (05/07/09) |
|
|
|
|
“Technology in the form of an intelligent infrastructure is fundamental to the building industry today, as it enables efficient monitoring and management of energy consumption, resulting in energy savings, reduced operating costs and an improved bottom line.”
This is according to Bradley Hemphill, Managing Director of Cape Town-based Electrical Engineering Solutions (EES), speaking last month on ‘IT for Energy Efficiency & Building Performance’ at the ConnectivityWeek convention held in Santa Clara, California. At the cutting edge of global smart energy and green environment events, ConnectivityWeek is the only international convention focused on the intersection of energy and information technology.
