Daniel J SaitSchneider Electric, a global energy technology player has announced that its SpaceLogic KNX solution can now be integrated with Samsung SmartThings for residential settings and SmartThings Pro for enterprise scale buildings and multi site operations.
Samsung has streamlined its certification process, enabling Schneider Electric to rapidly bring its full SpaceLogic KNX portfolio into the SmartThings ecosystem. As a result, Schneider Electric is expanding the range of connected devices available to homeowners and facility managers through a single platform.
The integration enables users to monitor and control SpaceLogic KNX devices through the SmartThings ecosystem, providing a single interface to manage building functions such as lighting, blinds, temperature control, sensors and energy systems. This empowers users to optimise energy consumption across residential and commercial environments, enabling them to reduce buildings’ carbon footprint through smart automation.
“Interoperability has become increasingly important in both residential and commercial environments where customers expect connected systems to work together seamlessly,” said Laurent Roussel, SVP Commercial & Channel at Schneider Electric. “Integrating SpaceLogic KNX with Samsung SmartThings expands how customers can manage their connected devices, personalise their automation experience and gain greater visibility into energy usage across homes and buildings.”
Centralising Energy and Commercial Building Management
Managing energy and building systems across multiple commercial locations has traditionally meant navigating a fragmented landscape of products from different manufacturers, siloed data and disconnected controls, leaving facility managers with no single view of what’s happening across their portfolio.
The SpaceLogic KNX integration with SmartThings Pro enables facility managers to monitor and manage energy consumption for multiple commercial locations through centralised dashboards. SpaceLogic KNX devices can now be integrated into SmartThings Pro to monitor lighting, blinds, HVAC, occupancy and energy consumption across commercial spaces.
Centralising Connected Home Control
Smart home technology has delivered remarkable capability, but managing it has often meant juggling a growing number of separate apps, incompatible systems and devices that don’t talk to each other. For homeowners, home builders and residential contractors, that fragmentation has been one of the biggest barriers to realising the full potential of connected home investments.
But now, the integration enables the management of SpaceLogic KNX solutions and other connected home products within the SmartThings application. This gives homeowners a more centralised way to control connected devices like smart appliances and electronics such as TVs, simplifying day to day management of comfort, lighting and household energy use.
Schneider Electric’s Leadership in the KNX Ecosystem
Schneider Electric was one of the founding companies behind KNX and remains one of the leading global players in the ecosystem today. KNX has been deployed worldwide for more than 35 years and includes an ecosystem of over 500 manufacturers.
