U.S. Department of Energy Invests in PassiveLogic to Develop Digital Twin Standard

PassiveLogic is defining the standard for digital twins. The United States Department of Energy (DOE) has invested in our developments through the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program.

Projects selected for SBIR investment have high potential for commercialization, supported technical merit, and relate to DOE objectives. PassiveLogic’s digital twin technology aligns with the DOE’s goal: “to make energy more affordable and strengthen the reliability, resilience, and security of the U.S. electric grid.”

The DOE investment is focused on researching in-building fusion of deep data from digital twins and their control schemas. PassiveLogic’s digital-twin control engine uses models of buildings, occupants, and equipment to control inter-connected systems with an intelligent, physics-based view of the future. When wrapped in our intuitive and beautiful user interface where these digital twins are tied to physical representations in schematic drawings, this new approach enables a host of benefits previously not possible. The weeks of programming and commissioning of hundreds of single function controllers (for one building!) will be replaced with this full-stack plug-and-play autonomous buildings platform.

Digital twin technology connects architects, engineers, control systems, and utilities, allowing all stakeholders to reinforce and guarantee design intent throughout the entire building life-cycle. Because PassiveLogic’s digital twin standard is fully integrated with building controls and real-time sensor data, the technology enables accurate measurement & verification (M&V) of building operation and design intent. This digital twin standard will thus also support utility rebate programs, municipal and state efficiency regulations, and ESCO industry demand for guaranteed energy savings.

PassiveLogic’s serializable digital twin standard can provide a self-validated, comparable, reconstructable, simulatable, and queryable digital copy of the building. When wrapped in a blockchain smart contract, this standard is the foundation for real time autonomous energy markets.

PassiveLogic and the DOE are very excited to utilize this next-gen autonomous buildings tech to enable truly smart cities and smart grids, real-time whole building demand-response, and build the groundwork for peer-to-peer energy networks.

PassiveLogic is developing the the first fully autonomous platform for buildings, built on digital twins from the ground up.
