The organisations behind the leading technology standards in the field of building automation are collaborating on this new initiative: "IP Building and Lighting Standards" (IP-BLiS).

Key Points: 
  • The organisations behind the leading technology standards in the field of building automation are collaborating on this new initiative: "IP Building and Lighting Standards" (IP-BLiS).
  • Together they are promoting a secure multi-standard IP-based infrastructure as a backbone in building automation to replace the inefficient, still-widespread use of siloed solutions.
  • Currently, there is no automation technology available that covers all of the use-cases required to fully automate a commercial building.
  • This will allow data from a wide variety of building systems to be accessible via a single IP address.
