Knowledge baseCertifications
the data certifiers ask for, already measured
Green building labels reward what can be measured and proven. Building automation provides the continuous air-quality, comfort and energy data, the controls and the commissioning records behind many credits. Credits are awarded by the scheme's assessor; we provide the evidence.

Other schemes
LEED, DGNB and LENOZ
- 01
LEED v4.1 and v5
Building-level and advanced energy metering, enhanced commissioning, continuous indoor-air monitoring, thermal and lighting control, grid interaction. The BMS exports the data each credit needs.
- 02
DGNB (TEC1.4)
"Use and integration of building technology" rewards integrated systems on open, standardised protocols and functions combined in one higher-level system. Bisly integrates HVAC, lighting, shading, access and metering on open protocols.
- 03
LENOZ (Luxembourg)
Luxembourg's sustainability certificate for housing. Energy monitoring and comfort data support the relevant criteria; we confirm the mapping with the project's LENOZ assessor.
- 04
Reference projects
Bisly buildings include Maakri HUB, Tallinn (A-class LEED office, BACS class B) and Saue Smart (LEED Silver, energy class A).
