Energy Efficiency Gains at Solana Beach Church

This case study details the implementation of mCloud's AssetCare energy management solution at Solana Beach Presbyterian Church, a facility serving up to 1,000 people weekly. The church, which operates a large campus of 70,000 square feet, faced significant energy management challenges due to its extensive use of 47 thermostats. Facilities Manager Jose Ramirez sought to improve energy efficiency, leading to a partnership with mCloud. The church utilized smart thermostats connected to a cloud-based platform for real-time monitoring and data analysis. This approach resulted in double-digit percentage savings in energy efficiency, with net savings exceeding 17 percent. The case study outlines how the solution not only reduced energy costs but also enabled proactive maintenance planning, allowing the church to allocate more funds to community initiatives. The success of the trial period has encouraged further exploration of technology integration, including air quality monitoring, to enhance the church's operational efficiency.
