Energy efficiency optimization for the University of Agriculture in Krakow
The Hugo Kołłątaj University of Agriculture in Kraków is one of the leading agricultural universities in Poland, managing a complex of administrative, teaching, and laboratory buildings. Such extensive infrastructure requires significant thermal energy and incurs high costs. The Nexo thermal optimization system implemented by ConnectPoint has delivered measurable savings and increased energy efficiency.
The Challenge
Managing heating in a vast building complex poses a significant challenge for the University of Agriculture in Krakow:
- High and variable heating demand – buildings for various purposes have varying heating requirements
- Energy wasted during periods of interruption – on weekends, holidays, or vacations
- Heating not adapted to actual use – rooms often overheat
- Traditional heating control in many buildings is time-consuming and requires constant supervision
- High maintenance costs – wasted energy translates into high bills and significant losses
- Lack of a central system for managing thermal comfort in rooms – control is performed locally and manually
Solution
ConnectPoint implemented the Nexo Thermal Optimization solution, enabling remote monitoring and control of heating. At the University of Agriculture in Krakow, 155 Vicki LoRaWAN® Smart Radiator Thermostat, 15 MClimate HT Sensor LoRaWAN®, 4 MClimate CO2 Sensor & Notifier LoRaWAN®, and three LoRaWAN gateways were installed. The smart valve solution now enables precise room-level temperature monitoring and control, with HT sensors providing external temperature references for multiple smart valves to improve accuracy and enable centralized, automated heating adjustments. The CO2 sensors allow the university to monitor indoor CO2 levels across the campus, helping ensure a healthy and productive environment for students and staff. All devices are connected to the central Nexo system, allowing the entire complex to be managed from a virtual control panel.
