122 Fifth Avenue Leverages Nantum AI to Secure LEED Gold Certification
The Bromley Companies, developer of a diversified national portfolio, announced today that it has been awarded LEED Gold Certification for its flagship 122 Fifth property in Manhattan. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), is the most widely used green building rating system in the world and an international symbol of excellence in sustainable development. 122 Fifth’s energy efficiency derives in large part from its pioneering application of Nantum AI, a software that uses artificial intelligence to automate building systems with real-time occupancy data, utilizing the least amount of energy to provide the maximum amount of indoor comfort.
“122 Fifth was redesigned from the ground up to utilize innovative technological solutions to improve the tenant experience- including in sustainability, where our Nantum AI platform empowers real-time, automated calculations of energy, costs, and carbon emissions reduction,” said Nicholas Haines, CEO at Bromley Companies. “We’re thrilled to see that effort be recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council with a LEED Gold Certification and look forward to many more creative applications of this technology in the coming months.”
Nantum AI, sometimes referred to as the “brain within the building,” is a software that uses artificial intelligence to automate a building’s energy usage and heating/cooling systems with real-time occupancy data. It leverages the entirety of the building’s accessible data to efficiently allocate energy without sacrificing occupant comfort. For example, as occupants depart the building in off-peak hours, the Nantum AI decreases the BMS (air) system, which in turn saves energy and carbon emissions, as well as dollars.
“Modern buildings face mounting pressure to decarbonize, and the redesign of 122 Fifth Avenue has prioritized technology to meet these demands. Nantum AI’s advanced artificial intelligence platform empowers operators to enhance operational performance through actionable insights,” stated Gary Chance, CEO of Nantum AI. “We are proud to contribute to 122 Fifth achieving Gold LEED certification and look forward to a future driven by data, health, and efficiency.”
