Why is BMS a significant lever for the BACS and Tertiary Decrees?

TERTIARY DECREE AND BACS DECREE: THE URGENCY OF THE ENERGY TRANSITION

‍

Today, nearly 983 million m² make up the tertiary building stock in France, with tertiary buildings responsible for 30% of the country's energy consumption. Current environmental challenges compel us to rethink our consumption patterns and move towards energy efficiency.

To address environmental issues, the French government has implemented the Tertiary Eco-Energy Scheme (DEET) or Tertiary Decree to regulate the implementation of measures aimed at significantly reducing energy consumption in tertiary buildings, and the BACS Decree (Building Automation Control Systems) which defines the means to achieve the consumption reduction targets set by the Tertiary Decree.

THE TERTIARY DECREE

The Tertiary Eco-Energy Scheme, the new name for the Tertiary Decree, introduces energy regulations for tertiary buildings. This regulation applies to the 983 million m² tertiary building stock in France.

The DEET mandates tertiary buildings over 1000m² to reduce their annual energy consumption. The time has come for mobilization to achieve the energy savings imposed by this decree: 40% by 2030, 50% by 2040, and 60% by 2050.

THE BACS DECREE

The BACS Decree (Building Automation Control Systems)

This standard requires the implementation of a Building Automation and Control System. It applies to all new and existing tertiary buildings:

• whose cumulative power exceeds 290 kilowatts (kW)
• Equipped with heating installations
• Equipped with air conditioning
• Equipped with combined heating and air conditioning
• Equipped with ventilation

HOW TO ACHIEVE THESE TARGETS BY 2030?

360° HYPERVISION OF YOUR BUILDINGS

‍

‍

SCorp-io is a cloud platform that allows you to centralize your buildings' technical data and remotely control equipment to improve energy performance and achieve your objectives in accordance with the Tertiary Decree and the BACS Decree.

‍

With SCorp-io, you can:

• Monitor consumption and improve the energy performance of your buildings
• Monitor equipment status (HVAC, lighting, fire safety systems, energy, etc.)
• Monitor security and alarm systems
• Anticipate breakdowns to improve your buildings' maintenance
• Create and continuously improve your system
• And much more!

Example of a municipal building

Before SCorp-io installation

This school's boiler remained on at night and on weekends, instead of being restarted based on occupancy and upcoming weather.

❌ Occupants experiencing discomfort

❌ No visibility into equipment status: technical issues not addressed in time

❌ Significant maintenance and energy consumption costs

‍

‍

After SCorp-io installation

✅ A 360° view of the building(s)' technical data (accessible anywhere, anytime)

✅ 30% reduction in heating costs

✅ Total cost of the operation after CEE: €10k

✅ ROI after 8 months of operation

SERVING THE PLANET

Reminder: these two decrees aim to encourage the construction and renovation of more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient buildings, with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change.

RECEIVE A CEE BONUS OF UP TO €90,000

Under these decrees, and to encourage businesses to begin their energy transition, the State offers financial aid in the form of CEE Bonuses (Energy Savings Certificates) to fund energy renovation projects.
