About Serious Energy

Serious Energy, Inc. increases the value of buildings for both owners and occupants with a platform of products and services that combine real-time, connected building analytics and control with material science innovations.

Our Buildings Matter

We spend over 90% of our lives inside buildings where we live, work, study, and shop. American commercial and residential real estate has lost trillions of dollars of value. Since 2007, commercial property values dropped 40%, and the average home value is down 27% or more. The U.S. Department of Energy states that America’s buildings account for approximately 40% of total U.S. energy consumption, costing $400 billion annually. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports that some 30% of buildings’ energy is simply wasted.

Get Serious: Increase the Value of Our Buildings

The value of buildings largely derive from their capacity to improve the comfort, productivity, and health of occupants. Independent studies prove measureable benefits such as quiet office spaces improve employee productivity, and upgrades that increase natural daylighting can lead to decreased absenteeism and higher productivity. Energy efficiency increases the value of a building.

The Serious Solution

Serious Energy is addressing the enormous opportunity to unleash the value in buildings with its suite of energy software services and advanced building products designed to increase the value of America’s buildings, for both owners and occupants. For building owners, the goal is to increase net operating income. For occupants, the goal is to increase comfort, productivity and health at lower operating cost.

Smart Energy Management

SeriousEnergy Manager - Enterprise Energy Efficiency Platform

SeriousEnergy Manager is a breakthrough cloud-based software system that monitors, optimizes and controls building performance through advanced algorithms. Our software integrates with existing building management systems, providing users with a unified, comprehensive insight of overall energy consumption and actionable, straightforward recommendations to optimize and cut energy usage. With SeriousEnergy Manager, customers can continuously maintain, optimize, and control the energy performance of a building or across an entire building portfolio. A cost-effective energy efficiency solution for commercial office buildings, schools, university campuses, government facilities, and retail operations, SeriousEnergy Manager leads to rapid payback of 6 – 24 months depending on building type, location, and other factors.

Energy Efficient Window & Glass Systems

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, inefficient single pane or dual pane windows account for 25% to 35% of energy wasted in buildings. While windows and glass are often cited as the building’s weakest energy link, glazing has not typically been considered part of a cost-effective strategy for high performance building. Serious Energy has changed the status quo with advanced windows and glass products that offer energy savings and improved occupant comfort.

SeriousWindows & SeriousGlass

SeriousWindows and SeriousGlass products offer a powerful combination of overall performance for both energy savings and indoor comfort for commercial and residential buildings. SeriousWindows and SeriousGlass installations can significantly reduce the amount of energy lost through windows and improve both thermal comfort and efficiency.

iWindow - Retrofit Glass System

Our glazing retrofit system, iWindow, enables rapid return on investment for the commercial energy efficiency retrofit market. iWindow provides a cost-effective alternative to full window replacement that can increase energy efficiency and improve comfort. Easily installed on the inside of the existing glass, an iWindow panel which can be in place in as little as 20 minutes minimizes disruption to building occupants or tenants. iWindow requires no replacement of the existing glass or alteration of the exterior appearance of the building.

High Performance Interior Building Products

QuietRock – High Reliability, Low Cost Soundproofing Solutions

QuietRock soundproofing drywall and solutions provide reliable, low cost code-compliant walls for hospitals, government, schools, and multi-family projects. Poor acoustics in buildings has been cited as the most significant comfort factor contributing to workplace distractions and productivity levels. Compared to traditional soundproofing techniques, QuietRock maximizes density in buildings and substantially reduces the material use and total installed cost required to accomplish high acoustic performance in buildings.
