Egain in new collaborative project on digitalization of residential properties together with Habo Bostäder and Habo Energi.

Egain Group and Moldeo AB are since 2021 part of the proptech group Kiona where Egain delivers operational and energy optimization solutions with AI and Moldeo AB provides the SCADA platform Web Port. Together with Habo Bostäder, they now announce that they will start up a collaboration on digitization and integrations of existing property technology systems and platforms. The aim is to modernize and create synergies around Habo Bostäders technical management with energy savings, housing comfort, alarm management, and digitization of working methods. The project brings together Kiona and Habo Bostäder no less than five different stakeholders who collaborate through open data and integrations.

Habo Bostäder is a municipally-owned real estate company founded in 1953 and is now undertaking a major modernization journey with a focus on digitalization and living comfort. Among the efforts already made, a dedicated network of fiber-connected substations has been deployed. This aims to provide a base plate to stand on in order to build further in its digitalization, which it is now doing.

Taking the next step, the company is working with several leading players in different technology areas who are integrating and collaborating with their systems to create the best possible solution for Habo Bostäder.

Among the efforts now being made, the metering company EcoGuard is introducing wireless indoor metering in all apartments to measure the indoor climate. To achieve synergies, the measurement data is fully integrated software-wise into Egain's Edge platform and then used there to support smart energy optimization with AI, which is also connected to the entire stock. In order to connect these new building technology platforms with already existing equipment, Web Port has been implemented as an overall system (SCADA) where all the buildings' technical systems can be connected, visualized, and monitored. The installation of Web Port is done by an additional actor, Nordomatic, who is responsible for the installation and commissioning of the systems on-site.
