At ACE IoT Solutions we work with customers to help them implement low cost, open source solutions to acquire data from diverse equipment and control systems. We take pride in deploying solutions that help make our clients’ data more observable and - as a result - more valuable. Indeed, our work with a customer rarely culminates with a CSV file. In most cases, our work with clients involves both data acquisition and efforts to ensure our clients have improved visibility into their building and energy data.

The City of Washington DC has made a commitment to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions 50% below 2006 levels by 2032 and to become carbon neutral and climate resilient by 2050. To meet its goals, Washington DC is advancing initiatives that will improve the energy efficiency of homes and buildings, expand use of renewable energy and enhance sustainable transportation options. Based on a study conducted in 2011, residential buildings accounted for 74% of the District’s total emissions, the largest contributor to the City’s carbon emission profile. In its 2011 Climate Action Plan, Washington DC prioritized reducing building energy use, including reducing energy use by buildings owned and operated by the DC municipal government.
