The U-CARE project aims to reduce excess energy consumption and carbon emissions from heating and cooling labs and server rooms at universities. It will develop a software application to program heating controls based on occupancy levels, machine usage, and other monitored data to reduce overshoots in energy usage from threshold-based triggers. The project will establish energy benchmarks, monitor facility usage, and develop the software application with outputs including open-source software, reports on metering data and outcomes like energy and cost savings.
