Building systems, connected

Buildings have systems.We make them work as one.

SVH ONE is a Belgian technology and engineering company connecting building automation, energy systems and operational data. ONE.OS is the software layer we are building to make those systems work together.

  • Building automation
  • Energy management
  • OT / IT

The problem

Building systems still operate in silos.

Controls, meters and energy platforms may each work well, but operators still have to assemble a complete view from separate data, tools and vendor clouds.

  • 01Different protocols and data models
  • 02Separate dashboards and databases
  • 03Proprietary clouds and vendor dependency
  • 04Custom engineering repeated for every project

The platform

Connect physical systems to useful applications.

ONE.OS is being designed to sit above and between existing building systems, connect them and give their data context without requiring working equipment to be replaced.

From signals to decisions

Connection is where the work starts.

Raw data is not enough. The platform has to give each signal meaning before it can support reliable control or optimisation.

01

Connect

Platform · in development

Connect the automation, electrical and energy systems already on site through edge gateways and open interfaces.

02

Normalise

Platform · in development

Connect different protocols and normalise vendor-specific data into a consistent technical model.

03

Understand

Platform direction

Give each signal a place and a purpose: site, room, asset, meter or energy flow.

04

Automate

Platform direction

Coordinate actions across systems while each controller keeps doing its own job.

05

Optimise

Platform direction

Improve performance over time using the operating limits and priorities of each site.

Open by design

Keep what works. Add the missing connection.

Buildings last longer than controllers, software contracts and cloud platforms. ONE.OS is being designed around open interfaces and local edge operation to reduce dependence on any one hardware vendor or cloud.

  • 01Vendor-agnostic architecture
  • 02Protocol-aware integration
  • 03Edge-capable operation
  • 04Open interfaces where practical

Why now

Building control and energy management are converging.

EV charging, solar, batteries and heat pumps all affect how a building runs. Their energy decisions need the same context as occupancy, HVAC and schedules.

  • 01Building automation
  • 02Energy management
  • 03Electrification
  • 04One operational context

What this enables

Use building and energy data together.

These use cases depend on data and control from more than one system.

  • Platform · in development

    Connect existing systems

    Integrate automation and energy infrastructure without replacing working controllers simply to gain visibility.

  • Platform direction

    Create a shared building model

    Turn raw points into contextual data about sites, spaces, equipment, meters and energy flows.

  • Platform direction

    See operations and energy together

    Relate building behaviour to electrical demand instead of analysing separate dashboards in isolation.

  • Platform direction

    Automate across disciplines

    Let occupancy, schedules, energy limits and equipment state inform coordinated decisions.

BACS readiness

Build for BACS. Keep the operational value.

European BACS requirements put more emphasis on monitoring and control. A sound architecture can meet the project brief and remain useful to operators after the compliance work is done.

Experience from the systems up

Engineering experience across the building stack.

Simon Van Hooreweghe founded SVH ONE after more than 15 years in critical power, industrial automation, robotics, electrification and energy management. Across those fields, the same problem kept returning: capable products, difficult integration.
