by jbs083008 d5 — September 3, 2008—Telkonet, Inc., provider of centrally managed solutions for integrated energy management, networking, building automation, and proactive support services, will be installing its in-room, occupancy-driven Telkonet SmartEnergy (TSE) energy management solution throughout the eco-friendly Metro Hotel located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the company has announced.
Milwaukee’s first Travel Green certified venue, the luxury Metro Hotel, selected TSE for its Recovery Time technology and highly efficient operation. TSE is being implemented with the help of Focus on Energy, Wisconsin’s energy efficiency and renewable energy initiative, which provides a rebate package to help offset energy management equipment and installation costs.
The company’s Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE) platform is a flexible, resilient, and low-cost solution providing property owners with total visibility and detailed data about an HVAC system and its energy consumption, together with real-time, instant remote management capabilities.
Telkonet says its occupancy-driven energy management products help hotels achieve typical savings of up to 30% in energy costs, eliminating unnecessary heating or cooling of vacant rooms. With TSE’s Recovery Time technology, guest comfort is ensured at all times, with the system maintaining the room temperature at the most energy-efficient setting when vacant and rapidly returning to the guest’s preferred setpoint on their return.
