- Piscada sells a cloud-based SaaS building-management system for commercial property portfolios. It gathers building data, structures it in a shared model and controls indoor-climate and energy systems. The page says its semantics engine automatically recognizes sources and creates the appropriate model, reducing manual sensor and infrastructure mapping.
- The system uses historical and live data, dashboards and algorithms to benchmark performance and help operators identify inefficiencies, such as air conditioning running outside office hours. The article describes current use as operator-guided changes and says future operation may automate those interventions. Claimed outcomes are lower energy use, operating costs and environmental impact while maintaining indoor climate; it also aims to avoid data silos and duplicate collection.
- The challenge context cites buildings at 30% of global final energy consumption and 26% of energy-related emissions. The page quotes Piscada’s CEO describing the product as a “Large Building Model” analogy to a large language model.
- Market context cites a global proptech forecast growing from USD 33.8 billion in 2023 to USD 72.4 billion in 2030 and notes stricter building-efficiency rules, including the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. Piscada says about 2,000 Norwegian industrial buildings and facilities use its software; it also has partners/customers in Germany and the Netherlands and seeks international growth. These customer and market figures are stated by the article.
- Piscada also provides software for sea-based aquaculture feeding, covered separately in its linked page.
- Linked to SDG 11 (Sustainable cities and communities) through energy-efficient commercial buildings.
