Airtight has developed a solution for establishing a detailed analysis of energy waste for individual buildings. The solution comprises of proprietary sensors that the company claims are capable of measuring the actual leakage of energy and moisture through the wall minute by minute. On sensors being placed at strategic places in the building, it analyzes where the major leakages are and how big they are. The solution uses real-time monitoring and machine learning for recommending adjustments to the heating and cooling systems. The company has been incubated at StartupLab in Oslo and its solution has been awarded the Seal of Excellence under the EU’s Horizon 2020 SME Instrument Phase 2.
