Meriton Serviced Apartments Opt for Ecosystem energy management solution

Meriton Serviced Apartments (MSA) is Australia’s fastest-growing accommodation brand, with more than 3,200 rooms in 13 properties across Australia’s east coast.
 

Ecosystem is a part of the suite of energy retrofit solutions offered by Delaware start-up Efficiency Grid LLC. After showing over 60% reduction in apartment unit kWh usage during winter testing, Meriton Serviced Apartments has expanded its energy efficiency program by choosing Ecosystem for its Pitt Street property. Ecosystem was installed in over 178 suites with a full array of wireless occupancy and door sensors to better control the apartments’ HVAC equipment.
 

This project was managed by Efficiency Grid’s Australian Service Provider, Smart Hotel Solutions (SHS). Doron Danon, SHS’s Managing Director, said, “We were impressed with the Ecosystem solution as these are large apartments and retrofitted during very high building occupancy. This initiative by MSA will result in a saving of close to 700,000kWh of energy annually.”
 

Efficiency Grid founder Phillip Kopp commented that “It’s great to get into the AU serviced apartment segment as there is a tremendous amount of energy saving potential there. We were very pleased with the work done by Smart Hotel Solutions.”
