Have you noticed the small devices in the restrooms at Mjärdevi Center recently? This week, AKKR8 has been installing sensors throughout the facility. Sensors and gateways will monitor water leaks from toilets and measure air quality in meeting rooms.
The goal is to help property owners like Sankt Kors better understand their energy consumption and implement preventive measures in a timely manner, ultimately preventing future water leaks. They will also get a better understanding of the air quality and how it can affect the work environment.
“The sensors will be in place for an extended period to collect data for analysis.They will also provide insights into bathroom usage patterns and water consumption over time,” explains Ulf Seijmer, co-founder AKKR8.
These tests are part of a collaboration with Sankt Kors under the Linköping Climate Neutral 2030 and Viable Cities project. Linköping municipality is supporting small and medium-sized companies by offering test bed vouchers worth 20,000 SEK, encouraging them to trial innovative solutions in the climate and energy sectors. In the long run, some of these tests could be key to creating a more sustainable Linköping.
