ABB Ability™ Building Analyzer Features

Launching in Belgium, Canada, Ireland, Israel, Mexico, and Switzerland, ABB Ability Analyzer enables centralization of all critical operation information providing analysis that allows for potential improvement opportunities. It tracks both data (occupancy, equipment runtime hours, temperatures, and costs) and utilities (energy, gas, water, steam) in real time from almost any kind of data source and an unlimited number of data points.

Facility and energy managers that need to meet budget and energy targets will save time and money when using the granular data, deeper insights, target setting, heat maps, alerts and reporting features provided by the Analyzer and gain a holistic view of their commercial portfolio across the globe.

As a cloud-based SaaS solution, ABB Ability™ Building Analyzer extracts the data gathered from meters and sensors, logged in various systems, over a secure internet connection. Manufacturer agnostic, open and highly flexible, it is suitable for commercial architecture of any size and tenant-type and allows its users to connect to the service from any geographical location. The intelligence tool provides easy onboarding and commissioning and supports compliance with legislation, industry standards and corporate sustainability goals.
