Honeywell Forge Sustainability⁺ for Buildings | Carbon and Energy

Core Features

Positioned within Honeywell’s building-technology ecosystem, Carbon and Energy is aimed at organizations running diverse real-estate portfolios and seeking a common foundation that brings sustainability aims, operational realities, and governance together across teams and regions. Its key capabilities include:

• Unified Carbon & Energy Data – SaaS application that centralizes formerly siloed energy and carbon data into a single view to track portfolio impact and savings.

• Autonomous & Supervisory Controls – Advanced control capabilities let teams adjust systems manually or autonomously; real-time occupancy (via Cisco collaboration) can drive zone-level setpoints for added efficiency.

• BMS-Agnostic Integration – Works with many BMS and enables remote portfolio operations; open connectivity demonstrated in multi-site hospitality deployments.

• IAQ-Energy Balance – Designed to manage energy and carbon alongside indoor air quality so comfort and decarbonization targets can be pursued together.

• Power & Demand Management – Orchestrates demand/supply, optimizes loads (including EV charging) and improves resilience with Power Manager and related modules.

• Compliance & Certification Reporting – Streamlined reporting for energy use, carbon impact and IAQ; supports sector needs such as airport compliance and third-party certifications.
