This company, specializing in building automation and energy management systems, plays a key role in implementing smart buildings. Focusing on the Building Automation System (BAS), it integrates various facilities for optimized building energy efficiency.
BAS allows key facilities like HVAC, lighting, and power to be controlled under one system, promoting more efficient facility operations. It offers an intuitive operating environment through its proprietary UI-based 2D/3D visualization interface and ensures stable functionality using DCS-based controllers.
Additionally, it features scheduling, self-diagnosis, and compatibility with external communication protocols like Modbus RTU/TCP, allowing integration with existing infrastructures, which is a major advantage.
The overall structure of the smart building system is divided into three layers. At the foundation layer, all on-site facilities like HVAC, lighting, meters, and renewable energy devices are included. These facilities collect real-time data and operate through sensor and control modules receiving commands.
The middle layer is the control layer. It is where distributed control systems (DCS) execute control commands based on real-time data for different facility groups, with automation and stability being crucial.
Finally, the top-level layers, BAS and BEMS, handle real-time monitoring, remote control, and data analysis, enabling efficient energy usage and optimized facility operations.
This company boasts a range of local and international certifications, reinforcing its technical reliability. Domestically, it holds degrees like Excellent Procurement Product, Green Technology Certification, K Mark, Q Mark, among others. Internationally, it has passed quality tests like UL and ISO. It also possesses building automation-related certifications like BTL and GS, applicable to various projects.
With 19 domestic patents and patents registered across the USA, Japan, and China, it has secured entry barriers and achieved high ratings (T2 grade) in the SME technology evaluation.
It has extensive project experience centered on the public sector. It boasts over 600 deliveries to various government offices and public institutions, building trust in terms of project execution capabilities and technological validation. This experience greatly enhances technical reliability in the market.
Furthermore, the company is focused on advancing facility control technologies internally. For example, optimizing motor control to reduce energy consumption, and enabling high-efficiency operation even at partial loads, achieving around 83% efficiency with an average load rate of 12%.
Its system offers remarkable scalability, designed to flexibly adjust the number of control tags or input/output modules based on the building type and scale, ensuring adaptability to the targeted installation environment. Particularly, the integration of BAS and BEMS allows control and data analysis from a single interface, a significant advantage for operator convenience and data integration management.
These technical features attract considerable interest from building operators or facilities where energy-saving is crucial, seeking to operate integratively beyond simple control into energy strategy.
The company’s growth direction is clear. It aims to expand intelligent control systems connected to the 4th Industrial Revolution, enhancing research and development in energy prediction and control areas through the convergence with AI and big data technologies.
It is also exploring entry into foreign public procurement markets, leveraging its domestic procurement market experience and certifications, and is expanding its prospects in Southeast Asia and the Middle East with sustained localization strategies and technical response efforts.
The demand for BAS technology is expected to continuously expand, closely linked to the legal mandates for BEMS. In countries like Korea, Japan, Singapore, and the UAE (Dubai), the installation of BEMS in buildings above a certain size is already mandated.
The European Union, through the amendment of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), has announced a gradual mandate starting in 2026, which is expected to further increase market expansion potential.
In Korea, BEMS installation is mandated for buildings above a certain size according to the Green Building Promotion Support Act, and government-level low-carbon green growth policies and support measures are being pursued. Thus, the establishment of BAS and BEMS is perceived not just as a simple facility investment but as a mandatory and strategic investment.
The company aligns its target market with these domestic policy trends and continues to enhance its solutions, expanding its position as the standard operating platform for smart buildings.
Japan mandates BEMS for public institutions and large private buildings based on the Energy Saving Act and ZEB policy, and Singapore strengthens system application centered on commerce linked to Green Mark standards. Especially with institutional mechanisms interconnected with building energy efficiency ratings, the importance of BAS/BEMS technology is further underscored.
In Dubai, BEMS installation for large and new buildings is mandated, and it is anticipated to spread to other Middle Eastern countries, making early entry highly strategic.
Therefore, BAS and BEMS are evolving beyond simply automating internal building controls, emerging as IT-based energy platforms capturing both operational efficiency and energy strategies. With market expansion, opportunities for companies with technological differentiation are expected to grow further, with this company continuing to evolve at its center.
Smart building automation systems are increasingly significant in energy saving and operational efficiency. KDC proactively responds to these changes based on accumulated technology and extensive project experience.
