Elevator Operating Costs: Efficient Stops
Challenge
Weight and passenger number can have a significant impact on elevator performance. But only smart elevators know when occupancy has reached a level where new passengers are no longer an option. As part of the broader evolution of smart buildings, premise managers must:
Determine optimal elevator occupancy in real-time
-
Manage systems so that elevators no longer respond to stop requests after reaching peak occupancy

Solution
KPIs from elevator activity can be reviewed to better determine trends in floor access at different points of time, helping to:
-
Optimize finite intra-building transportation resources based on adjustable parameters
-
Limit elevator waiting time by avoiding unnecessary stops
At the University of the West of England, we now use dashboards and reports to understand post-pandemic behavior, allowing us to better allocate resources and plan future facility improvements.
Benefits
More than a gimmick, premise managers are searching for this type of solution because it:
-
Saves operational costs by limiting energy consumption related to intra-building transportation
-
Increases building value by improving visitor satisfaction
-
Sets a positive tone for a productive work environment
