How smart occupancy management transforms facilities efficiency.

Friday 12 December 2025

Are your empty rooms still consuming energy? 

An empty room is more costly than it appears. Across offices, campuses and public buildings, systems are often running when no one is present; that’s heating, cooling, lighting and ventilation – all contributing to rising building management costs. 

Facilities managers are under increasing pressure to cut costs, reduce carbon emissions and deliver smarter, more adaptable spaces. 

Yet without visibility, empty rooms remain invisible drains on both budgets and the environment. 

The hidden cost of empty spaces 

Energy wasteHVAC and lighting systems often run on fixed schedules, regardless of occupancy. 

Carbon footprint: Every unnecessary kilowatt-hour adds to emissions, undermining sustainability goals. 

Smart occupancy management: A smarter way forward 

Smart occupancy management uses building data to align facilities with actual demand. Instead of relying on static schedules or manual oversight, it ensures spaces and systems are managed dynamically. 

This means: 

  • Lower costs: Energy bills shrink when systems run only when needed 
  • Carbon savings: Reduced consumption directly supports sustainability targets 
  • Smarter estates: Facilities adapt, creating a responsive, efficient environment 

Turning data into action 

At Tyrrell Analytics, we help organisations unlock efficiency by connecting occupancy insights with building systems. Our solutions give facilities managers the tools to cut waste, boost sustainability and deliver spaces that truly serve their people.
