The coming collision: Healthcare’s increasing energy demand

Demands for adaptability, digital transformation, and the need to do more with less cause massive strain on hospitals. Some of these healthcare facilities simply aren’t built to handle the strain of rising costs and energy volatility.

Schneider Electric decided to do something about it. Their new research with JLL draws on a physics-based dataset comprising millions of building performance models to provide a strong reference point for healthcare leaders on their modernization journey. The study models the impact of a wide range of energy and resiliency measures (ECCMs), identifying which interventions deliver the greatest efficiency gains.
