Adding a new facility in Teletrol eBuilding 5.0

Andy McMillan, CEO of Teletrol Systems Inc. said, “eBuilding 5.0 is a major step forward in energy management systems.  We realized a long time ago that many products in the market would be web-enabled, but few would be fully Internet enabled.  Improvements in standards-based technology and the rapid increase of investments in networking infrastructure have given us a clear picture of where our technology can offer the most value to our customers – and we factored that into the current release.” McMillan added, “We have also considered the many challenges facing building operators today – from soaring energy costs to the pressure to improve operational efficiencies - and believe that the investment in an energy management system will help address these challenges.”
