Commercial Energy Management
Measure. Control. Manage.
Where energy management makes the difference in the commercial sector
Office buildings
Heating, cooling, ventilation, and lighting are the largest energy consumers in a building. LOXONE efficiently coordinates all of these systems.
Hotel and Hospitality Industry
Energy flows to where guests are – and nowhere else. LOXONE reduces operating costs without compromising on comfort.
Retail and branch operations
Many locations, one logic: LOXONE makes energy consumption and costly peak loads at every location visible and comparable – the foundation for targeted decisions. Exosphere provides an overview all of all locations.
Production & Industry
Machinery, compressors, and start-up sequences generate peak loads that drive up capacity charges. LOXONE detects them and intervenes before they occur – without slowing down production.
Here’s how you can save on energy costs in your company with LOXONE.
Intelligently measure energy consumption
Costs can only be reduced in a targeted manner once consumption, generation, and peak loads can be measured. That is why LOXONE records every energy flow.
Heating, cooling, ventilation
In non-residential buildings, these are the largest controllable loads – and thus offer the greatest leverage.
Reduce peak loads
For businesses subject to peak demand metering, the highest 15-minute peak determines grid costs. LOXONE keeps them low – automatically.
Self-generation & storage utilisation
PV and storage systems are deployed specifically for self-consumption.

FAQs
What is energy management in the commercial sector?
Commercial energy management consolidates the measurement, control, and analysis of energy consumption within a business – with the aim of reducing costs, avoiding peak loads, and meeting statutory reporting requirements. LOXONE handles this automatically as part of the overall building automation system.
What should companies look for when selecting an energy management solution - and which features are a must?
Two things matter when making the selection:
- Vendor-independent integration
- Retrofit capability for existing buildings
The following functions should be included at a minimum:
- Real-time consumption measurement
- Automatic load distribution and peak load shaving
- Integration of PV and storage
- Automated reporting for statutory compliance obligations
LOXONE combines all of this in a single platform – manufacturer-independent, local, and part of the overall building automation system.
What is a capacity charge – and why does a peak load cost so much?
Larger businesses pay two components for grid usage: an energy charge based on the number of kilowatt-hours consumed and a capacity charge based on the highest measured power demand in kilowatts. This peak 15-minute interval determines the capacity charge for an extended billing period. Thus, it is not the consumption itself that becomes more expensive; rather, a single peak sets a price that remains in effect for a long time.
Do I need special measurement technology for that?
The foundation is the reliable recording of energy flows. LOXONE offers several methods for this: direct measurement via Energy Meters, indirect measurement via Current Transformers, and reading data from existing meters via interfaces.
Can energy management also be retrofitted into existing buildings?
Yes. You can integrate existing equipment and retrofit energy management using Air products (wireless) and meter interfaces – without having to break open walls or rewire.
