The Centre of Excellence for Energy and Facility Management\u00a0<\/a>recently brought together more than 50 professionals from five countries (Spain, the UK, Poland, Chile and Australia) to discuss current and future trends in the energy efficiency market. The aim of this forum, which was held in the framework of the SUMMA Corporate University, <\/a>was to share best practice through experts from the company\u2019s different divisions. The forum also benefitted from the views of current and potential clients of Ferrovial Services such as General Motors<\/a> and Philips.<\/a><\/p>\n

Juan Ignacio Beltr\u00e1n, Director of the Centre of Excellence for Energy and Facility Management, opened the session with a global overview of Ferrovial Services\u2019 main projects and challenges in this field. \u201cEnergy efficiency is a priority for both the public administration and the private sector due to potential savings and required adaptation to new regulations.” And adds:<\/p>\n

“It is a strategic market with a strong growth perspective in all the locations in which we work. Our aim is to offer distinctive solutions, while at the same time streamlining operations through innovation and the use of technology.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

David Pocero<\/a>, Special Projects and Development Manager for the Centre of Excellence for Energy and Facility Management, offered his views on the global energy market, its potential evolution in the short term, and its influence on energy efficiency. James Chandler,<\/a> Head of Energy Efficiency for the Centre in the UK, spoke of the importance of energy efficiency in Britain, especially for strategic clients such as the Home Office; and Barry Hale, Lighting Manager for Amey,<\/a> detailed his experiences in public lighting management in the British market.<\/p>\n

Miguel Prieto<\/a>, Technical Office and Innovation Manager for the Centre of Excellence for Energy and Facility Management, closed the event in a roundtable discussion with clients General Motors and Philips, facilitated by Aitor Larrabe, Talent Manager at Ferrovial. Prieto shared two innovation initiatives that the Centre of Excellence is currently working on: the \u201cHEFESTO\u201d project<\/strong>, which consists in connecting all the devices used in energy services contracts to a common platform for monitoring purposes; and a second project based on wearable RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)<\/strong> technology \u2013 developed together with the MIT \u2013 which allows optimisation of energy services within buildings.<\/p>\n
