Aemaco, a leading provider of comprehensive energy management solutions, says that it has successfully deployed its innovative energy management solution at Servhub’s labour camp in the UAE, which has helped the facilities management company reduce its energy consumption by 20 per cent.

Established in 2020, Aemaco is an energy management solutions company and a subsidiary of Proven Arabia group. It initially focused on air-conditioning (AC) systems and developed its own hardware and software solution for monitoring and controlling ACs, making it the first of its kind in the UAE and Saudi markets.  The company’s IoT hardware, comprising sensors and transmitters, has the capability to interface with AC units across various buildings, while the software consolidates all directives to manage the devices. 

Aemaco worked with Proven to develop this energy management solution and implemented it at a labour camp facility of Servhub, another Proven Arabia group company, in the UAE.  The unified platform solution helped the facility reduce energy consumption, lower maintenance costs and increase equipment lifespan. The combination of the IoT hardware device AirEcon and the AI-enabled software allows users to optimise energy usage automatically and boost energy efficiency, says the company.

“Recognising the impact of utility consumption on building management costs, we aimed to develop a solution that would reduce expenses, improve energy efficiency, and incorporate automation. We began with air-conditioners, given their significant power consumption in the Middle East, and plan to expand our focus on water and electricity.  We successfully helped Servhub reduce energy costs and optimise the management of their energy devices at their facility camp,” says Saboor Ahmad, CEO of Aemaco. 

“Following the success of this project, we look forward to advancing our technologies further to other facilities such as schools, mosques, hospitals and promote energy-saving solutions tailored for diverse facility needs,” Ahmad adds.

Speaking on behalf of Servhub, Proven Arabia CEO and Co-Founder Zaid Al Mashari says: “Servhub is a leading comprehensive blue-collar service provider in the region. We are proud to be working with Aemaco and chose their innovative energy management solution that is user-friendly, cost-effective, and easily customisable. We achieved a remarkable 20 per cent energy consumption reduction using Aemaco’s solution and we plan to implement it in other facilities too.”

Aemaco’s solution was implemented as a pilot project at two of Servhub’s labour camp facilities, comprising 157 rooms and 1,200 residents. All air-conditioning units in the facility were integrated with a hardware gateway device, facilitating communication between the software and the units. The AC units were grouped by floor or building level and managed through a single software interface. The system enabled the authorised personnel to remotely oversee all units and receive real-time updates on energy usage, detect anomalies, making it a proactive approach.

The software operates on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model and was developed by Proven Solution, a start-up.
