Kolding Municipality, a public building owner, was facing challenges in achieving its ambitious energy-saving goals. The existing energy management program was outdated and inefficient, making it a time-consuming task to manually analyze data from electricity meters. This inefficiency made it difficult to identify energy fluctuations in the municipality’s numerous properties, including schools and stadiums. The municipality needed a modern, efficient solution to identify energy waste and optimize energy consumption in its buildings.

The municipality partnered with Ento, a Danish entrepreneurial company specializing in energy optimization using artificial intelligence (AI). Ento's AI solution automatically analyzes energy consumption data and suggests potential energy savings. The solution is based on electricity data from the utility and includes several other sources to give the AI a deeper understanding of the energy consumption. The AI solution is accessible via an online portal, providing an efficient and user-friendly interface for the municipality. Of the municipality’s total 450 properties, 210 were identified as relevant for analysis by the AI solution.
