Frequently asked questions

Novacene is an IoT SaaS firm that digitises buildings to optimise energy usage and overall performance. Using cutting-edge technologies, we transform building data into actionable insights, enhancing efficiency and sustainability. 

Novacene uses IoT sensors and smart software to monitor and analyse a building's energy consumption. We then provide insights and recommendations to reduce energy waste and lower carbon emissions, ultimately aiding in the transition to net-zero buildings. 

Novacene is suitable for any type of building – schools, libraries, universities, palaces, offices, factories, and more. Our goal is to improve the energy efficiency of all buildings, regardless of their current status or function. 

Through the use of IoT sensors and AI-driven analytics, Novacene identifies areas of energy wastage and provides recommendations to reduce consumption. By optimising energy use and suggesting sustainable alternatives, we assist buildings in achieving net-zero emissions. 

Novacene's roadmap includes developing additional features for our context engine to automate building control based on real-time data. This includes factors such as weather, energy costs, and room usage, creating a truly smart and responsive building management system.

Novacene's pricing is based on digitisation size (small, medium, large), the hardware required, the software licences, and the installation process. We aim to keep our solutions affordable, offering a fraction of the cost compared to traditional Building Management Systems (BMS).
