IBM and Johnson Controls to Create Greener, Smarter Buildings

energy efficient buildings


IBM just announced their collaboration with Johnson Controls to market energy monitoring and management systems designed to help businesses and factories make their new and existing buildings 'greener' and more energy efficient. IBM explained that their collaboration "... will provide... clients with advanced intelligence capabilities that will measurably improve building operations."

Referred to as the "smart building solution," the partnership combines IBM's Maximo monitoring software program with energy-efficient technologies developed by Johnson Controls to allow building managers to monitor and correct wasteful energy practices and air quality issues. One of the biggest clients that will utilize the smart building solution is the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), provider of nuclear, hydro, wind and fossil fuel power services to 9 million customers.

    Hi im in 8th Grade and for a Science Project we have too make a Solar Oven too reach 400+. I dont want ideas on it. But if you have some go for it. But anyways I need help with maateirl ideas so far I have..-Black Spray Paint.-Duct Tape.-Insulation.-Mirrors.For the Lid i need ideas on it if it should be clear or black and what not..Thanks For The Help.(:
