In this episode, I speak with Rob Mitchell, Project Sales Director at SSE. He works within the Smart Buildings division of the company who focus on decarbonising buildings. According to a report from the European Commission, an estimated 75% of Europe's current building stock is considered energy inefficient. We need to act now.
We discuss energy saving, how we procure technology within commercial buildings, interoperability, the traditional construction process, the trade-off between net zero carbon and occupant comfort and whether he believes there are any buildings that are currently achieving operational excellence today.
In his words, "we've got to be brave; we need to find brave clients and show others what is possible".

In this episode, I speak with Dogu Taskiran about digital twins and how they make a building and a city truly smart. Dogu is a software developer, a smart city thought leader and the CEO of a virtual reality and augmented reality studio, Stambol Studios. However, Stambol doesn’t just focus on what people might traditionally associate VR and AR with; they also work within the real estate and construction industry, creating virtual models that allow key stakeholders to view the building before it's even built.
The key questions answered are:
What is the value of a Digital Twin?
How does a Digital Twin link into Construction 4.0?
What are the benefits for Facility Managers and the wider supply chain?
Is there any resistance to fully digitised cities?
What is your vision of the future city?

In this episode, I speak to Peter Kerr (Director at Atelier Ten) about the pro's and con's of smart care homes, with a particular focus on circadian lighting. We discuss how smart technology can improve the standard of care, improve health and wellbeing as well as energy efficiency. We also discuss whether a fully connected, futuristic care home could be a step too far and not be welcomed by the currently elderly, but how that could change in 60 years time when Millenial's get to an age where they may need to go into a care home. We also discuss design considerations, return on investment and the importance of retaining some independence, e.g. being able to turn the light on yourself as opposed to it all being sensor-based.
