Modern hotel room with integrated building technology: lighting, shading, indoor climate, access, energy management, visualisation and charging infrastructure
Hospitality

Intelligent building technology
for modern hotels

Efficiently planned. Intelligently automated. Economically operated.

HoGtec develops holistic technical concepts for hotels and serviced apartments — from initial consultation and electrical planning through building automation and energy management to programming and commissioning.

Our goal: a high level of comfort for your guests, simple processes for your staff and energy-efficient building operation.

A hotel only works as an integrated system

Lighting, indoor climate, shading, access, energy supply and charging infrastructure are often planned as separate trades. We look at how they interact.

  • Lighting
  • Shading
  • Indoor climate
  • Access
  • Energy
  • Charging infrastructure
  • Visualisation

At an early project stage, we work with developers, operators and architects to analyse the building's requirements and develop a coordinated overall technical concept.

In doing so, we consider not only the investment, but also energy consumption, ease of use, maintenance and subsequent operation.

Efficiency starts with planning

Good building automation does not start with programming, but with planning. Together with developers, operators, architects and other project stakeholders, we develop technical concepts that take subsequent operation into account from the outset.

Electrical planning

Planning of the electrical infrastructure, taking future building automation into account.

Building automation

Development of cross-trade automation and control concepts.

Lighting

Lighting control and DALI concepts for hotel rooms and public areas.

Energy & load management

Design of intelligent energy flows and avoidance of unnecessary load peaks.

Charging infrastructure

Integration of charging points for guests and staff into the energy concept.

Access & security

Integration of digital access and security systems.

Network & communication

Planning for the necessary digital infrastructure.

Visualisation & monitoring

Central display of key system states, alerts and energy data.

Comfort for the guest — intelligence in the background

Technology in a hotel room should not need explaining. Guests expect intuitive operation. Which systems communicate with each other in the background should not matter to them.

01

Lighting

Individual lighting scenes and intelligent lighting control create atmosphere while enabling efficient operation.

02

Indoor climate

Heating, cooling and ventilation can be controlled as needed and adapted to occupancy and presence.

03

Shading

Automatic shading combines comfort with protection against summer heat and energy efficiency.

04

Access

Digital access solutions can be linked to other room automation functions.

Using energy when it is needed

An unoccupied hotel room does not need the same comfort level as a room in which a guest is currently staying.

Occupancy status, presence and operating times can be used to automatically adapt indoor climate, lighting and other loads to actual demand.

This means energy efficiency comes not from sacrificing comfort, but from intelligent building operation.

Controlling energy flows intelligently

Modern hotels are increasingly becoming complex energy systems. Building services, kitchens, wellness areas, heat pumps, photovoltaics, battery storage and charging infrastructure all draw on a shared energy supply.

HoGtec develops concepts to connect consumers and generators in a meaningful way.

Individual installations become a coordinated energy system for the entire hotel.

  • Record energy consumption
  • Visualise energy flows
  • Detect and reduce load peaks
  • Prioritise loads
  • Optimise PV self-consumption
  • Factor in battery storage
  • Control charging power dynamically
  • make optimal use of the available connection capacity

E-mobility as part of the building

In hotels, charging infrastructure should not be considered in isolation. As the number of charging points grows, the available electrical connection capacity becomes particularly relevant.

That is why HoGtec takes charging infrastructure into account as early as the energy and electrical planning stage. Dynamic load management can intelligently distribute the available power between hotel operations and charging points.

Photovoltaics, battery storage and other controllable loads can also be part of the overall concept.

All systems at a glance

A central visualisation creates transparency across the hotel's technical infrastructure. Operating states, temperatures, energy consumption and faults can be displayed clearly.

Technical staff gain a central overview and can respond more quickly to deviations. At the same time, the recorded data forms the basis for further optimising building operation in the long term.

Connecting systems instead of creating isolated solutions

Depending on the project, we connect different technologies and systems with each other.

What matters is not a particular manufacturer or a single system. The technology must suit the building, the operating processes and the future requirements of the hotel.

From idea to operation

  1. 01

    Advise

    Analyse requirements, usage and technical conditions.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Develop a cross-trade technical concept.

  3. 03

    Automate

    Program systems and link them together.

  4. 04

    Commission

    Test and optimise functions, then commission them together.

  5. 05

    Optimise

    Refine operating strategies based on real-world experience and consumption data.

Intelligent technology for new builds and modernisation

Not every hotel project starts on a greenfield site.

For renovation and modernisation projects, HoGtec analyses existing technical installations and develops concepts for how existing systems can sensibly continue to be used, supplemented or gradually modernised.

This allows investment to be targeted where it delivers the greatest technical and economic benefit.
