EnOcean and Bember Partner on Building Data Optimisation for Commercial Real Estate

EnOcean and Bember partnership for building data optimisation announced by company executives outside UN headquarters
  • EnOcean and Bember partnership aims to unify building data across commercial real estate systems.

  • The collaboration combines battery-free IoT sensors with ESG analytics software.

  • The integrated system links IT sensor data and OT building automation data to improve operational insights.

  • The platform supports energy optimisation and regulatory reporting frameworks, including CSRD, EU Taxonomy and BREEAM.

  • The approach is designed to help building owners improve efficiency, compliance and sustainability reporting.

The EnOcean and Bember partnership is focused on building data optimisation in commercial real estate by integrating sensor-based building data with analytics and compliance reporting systems.

EnOcean, a provider of battery-free wireless Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and software company Bember announced a collaboration designed to unify building data streams and improve energy efficiency and sustainability reporting.

The companies aim to address a persistent challenge across commercial property portfolios: fragmented building data that limits the ability of operators and investors to measure performance and comply with increasingly complex sustainability regulations.

Integrating sensor data with building systems

The collaboration combines EnOcean’s battery-free IoT sensor ecosystem and SmartServer platform with Bember’s analytics and compliance software. The goal is to create a unified data layer linking information generated by building sensors with operational data from building management systems.

EnOcean sensors collect environmental and occupancy information such as temperature, humidity, CO₂ levels and space utilisation. Through the SmartServer platform, operational technology (OT) data from systems including HVAC controls, meters and energy management infrastructure can also be integrated.

Raoul Wijgergangs, CEO of EnOcean GmbH, said the approach helps bring traditionally separate building technology domains together.

“The joint solution enables system integrators, building and portfolio owners to advance sustainable building automation,” he said.

“By digitally unifying building data, it improves operational performance, reduces energy and CO₂ consumption and helps meet increasing regulatory and financial reporting requirements.”

How building data optimisation supports ESG reporting

Effective building data optimisation is becoming increasingly important as property owners face new sustainability disclosure frameworks and energy performance requirements.

In many buildings, environmental sensors, building automation systems and energy meters operate in separate technical environments. This fragmentation makes it difficult to produce reliable operational insights or generate the audit-ready datasets required for regulatory reporting.

The EnOcean and Bember system combines real-time sensor information with operational building data to create a consolidated dataset describing how buildings are used and how technical systems perform.

Bember’s software then structures the data into sustainability metrics and reporting outputs designed to align with regulatory frameworks including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), EU Taxonomy, the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and BREEAM In-Use assessments.

According to the companies, the approach enables continuous monitoring and AI-assisted optimisation while maintaining compatibility with existing building infrastructure.

Anders Fjærli, CEO of Bember, said the aim is to support more reliable ESG data for property owners and operators.

“Our focus is on making ESG and regulatory reporting reliable, continuous, and grounded in real operational data,” he said.

“Partnering with EnOcean allows us to connect sensor-level insights with building system data at scale, giving building owners and operators a transparent and audit-ready basis for compliance, optimisation, and long-term value creation.”

The partnership is intended to support system integrators, building operators and property portfolio managers seeking to improve operational efficiency, reduce energy consumption and strengthen compliance reporting.
