Optimizing HVAC systems in buildings for lower energy consumption

Onye Dike
Updated by Onye Dike on July 25th, 2026
Sally R is a cloud-based AI platform that optimizes HVAC systems in commercial buildings to improve indoor air quality while reducing energy consumption. Designed as an add-on to existing Building Management Systems (BMS), it continuously analyses real-time air quality and operational data to determine the most energy-efficient way to maintain a healthy indoor climate. The platform is aimed at commercial property owners, real estate managers, shopping centres, office buildings, and facility management teams seeking to lower operating costs, improve occupant comfort, and reduce the carbon footprint of existing buildings without replacing their HVAC infrastructure.

Core Features

Rather than replacing existing building automation systems, Sally R works alongside them, using cloud-based AI to continuously optimize HVAC operation based on real-time building conditions. Its features include:

  • AI HVAC Optimization – Continuously adjusts HVAC control settings to maintain target indoor air quality while minimizing energy consumption.

  • Real-Time Air Quality Monitoring – Uses measurements such as CO₂, VOCs, temperature, and humidity to understand indoor conditions and optimize ventilation accordingly.

  • Integration with Existing BMS & IoT Systems – Connects to existing Building Management Systems through native integrations or an edge gateway, allowing deployment without replacing existing HVAC infrastructure.

  • Cloud-Based Optimization Engine – Processes operational data in the cloud, performing approximately 2,500 calculations per minute to identify optimal HVAC control strategies in real time.

  • Performance Dashboards & Analytics – Visualizes system status, analysis, energy performance, and optimization results through an online dashboard, enabling facility managers to monitor building performance.

  • Autonomous Building Operation – Continuously searches for the optimal operating point with minimal manual intervention, helping reduce energy use while maintaining a healthy indoor climate.

Closing Insights

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning typically account for a large proportion of energy use in commercial buildings, making HVAC optimization an important opportunity for reducing both operating costs and emissions. Sally R focuses on this challenge by combining real-time indoor air quality measurements with cloud-based AI to optimize existing ventilation systems rather than replacing them.

The platform has been deployed in projects including Westfield Mall of Scandinavia, where Sally R reported 41% HVAC energy savings, and Norra Backa Shopping Center, where a deployment with Savills Investment Management achieved 33% savings in total building energy consumption, with an estimated payback period of less than two months.

The company has also participated in the Skyline programme, an initiative supporting Swedish proptech companies entering the New York market to help decarbonize commercial buildings. Beyond HVAC optimization, Sally R has licensed NASA-developed air treatment patents, supported by the European Space Agency, to advance indoor air purification technologies.
