ABOUT PARITY :
Buildings in our beautiful cities where we live and work are producing 40% of the CO2 going into our atmosphere and contributing to climate change. We need to HEAT VENTILATE and AIR CONDITION our buildings 24 / 7. Most of the energy consumed in a building is for our comfort but 50% of it is wasted! This is because buildings have little to no technology to control this.

Using advanced algorithms Parity can predict the amount of energy needed ahead of time to operate a building to meet its occupants demands and adapt the buildings systems and machinery in real time. We save our customers :
- Time - we automate setpoint adjustments and demand response protocols. Our Pi (Parity Insights) dashboard provides early alerting services when things go down.
- Money - Parity contractually guarantees the savings that we expect to deliver to our multifamily customers. We also unlock additional revenue through the automation of grid services.
- CO2 Emissions - we reduce a buildings emissions by optimizing its HVAC systems and reducing energy waste.
