"Smart communities" use real-time data to identify underperforming areas for tangible outcomes and sustainable savings. Conservative savings for a smart community range from 15 percent to 20 percent of their utility and energy consumption costs, the article said.
Using smart building technologies allows senior living operators to do more with less, which frees up capital for use in top-quality care and other areas.
