URS, Inc. has partnered with InMapz, a software application that streamlines building management. Its key features include simplified building inspections using digital maps and photo/QR code recording, energy efficiency optimization by connecting IoT sensors to monitor and adjust energy usage based on occupancy, and enhanced emergency response through real-time access to building information and equipment locations. The software reduces time spent on administrative tasks and improves overall building safety and operational efficiency.

Best of all, the solution pays for itself, day one!

Welcome to the enchanting world of Phase Change Materials (PCMs)! These magical materials help keep greenhouses cozy in winter and cool in summer by absorbing heat during the day and releasing it at night—perfect for nurturing our green friends.

With the power to save up to 20% combined on heating and cooling, PCMs not only enhance crop growth but also reduce fossil fuel use and carbon emissions.

Incentives may be available to overcome challenges like initial costs. However, the benefits of energy savings and sustainability alone make PCMs a bright star in our quest for greener spaces!

This Deep Dive shares some exciting information about BioPCM®, a sustainable phase-change material that's used to boost energy efficiency in buildings and other applications. We've got some great case studies that showcase how it significantly reduces HVAC energy consumption from 15-25% and carbon emissions across various sectors like retail, telecom, and manufacturing.

What makes BioPCM really stand out is its unique properties, such as its plant-based composition and its ability to work across a wide temperature range.

With its ability to store and release thermal energy, BioPCM not only helps save on costs but also offers great environmental benefits.
