Challenges

The pilot allowed the social entities to detect and proactively solve incidents linked to living conditions in these homes and to the comfort of the people living there by collecting, transmitting, analysing and managing the data sent by Cellnex devices.

Solution

Collect and monitor data related to energy efficiency, temperature, humidity and CO2 levels, among other indicators, will rise to 50, thereby helping these social entities to better monitor and protect these “connected” homes.
The project also includes the necessary IoT platform for monitoring remote data and storage and the dashboard used to process information, generate indicators and draw conclusions.

This collaboration is a clear example of how synergies between the business and social sector can be generated. We need companies like Cellnex that provide knowledge and solutions to allow social organizations to move forward in the process of digital transformation and work in a more efficient and innovative way. The study has provided some very useful data allowing social entities to better manage housing while better serving people.
