This is a summary of the Feb 16th MondayLive.org discussion. The weeks following AHR Expo in Las Vegas have created space for something the industry
Learn how AI in building operations delivers fast, low-risk wins by optimizing passive systems like HVAC set points, lighting schedules, refrigeration, and access control—without adding operational burden.
There’s plenty of noise around “autonomous buildings.” Owners, operators, and integrators want a simpler lens: what is working now, what scales across portfolios, and what
Cooling Tower “Efficiency” vs. Actual Energy Efficiency (Greatest Misconception)
Cooling towers are often described as being “efficient” when the water leaving the tower is very close to the outdoor wet-bulb temperature. This common misconception results from the thermodynamic efficiency formula…
In this part, we will explore the factors that drive the cooling effect in a cooling tower. In Part 2, we will discuss the difference between cooling tower thermodynamical efficiency and electrical efficiency (kW/ton).
As the industry converges on Las Vegas for AHR Expo2026. A powerful new framework is emerging from leading voices in open building innovation—one that moves
