Johnson Controls Named a Leader in Energy Management Software
Johnson Controls, the global leader for smart, healthy and sustainable buildings, announced it was named a leader in energy management software by independent industry analyst firm Verdantix in its Green Quadrant: Energy Management Software 2023 report.
“Buildings contribute nearly 40% of global emissions and new levels of efficiency and sustainability can only be achieved through digitalization,” said Johnson Controls Chief Technology Officer Vijay Sankaran.
Energy Management Software 2023 report provides a detailed, fact-based comparison of the most prominent energy management software (EMS) vendors evaluated on their innovation and product strategy and customer satisfaction through product demonstrations, vendor responses and interviews.
Through its analysis, Verdantix found a dramatic improvement in energy management capabilities in Johnson Controls’ offerings since evaluations in 2015 and 2018. Through the launch of OpenBlue and a targeted acquisition strategy to bolster and deepen capabilities, Johnson Controls has enriched its offering with additional energy and sustainability management features.

It also helps customers in simplifying carbon disclosure reporting and regulatory compliance with building performance standards. With deployments across the globe-spanning commercial office spaces, healthcare, education, campuses and more, OBEM enables real-time data visibility across assets, people and processes, empowering customers to drive intelligent and proactive operations from a single pane of glass.
