How Dracula Technologies Reduced Energy Consumption by 25% with Orioma

Reducing energy consumption in industrial environments is rarely simple. Maintaining environmental stability while improving efficiency requires precision, data, and control.

Dracula Technologies, a French deep-tech company specializing in organic photovoltaic technology, set a clear objective:
reduce office energy consumption by 25%.

The target was achieved.

The Challenge: Overconditioning Without Visibility

Before the project, HVAC systems operated on:

  • Fixed schedules
  • Conservative thermal safety margins
  • Limited real-time occupancy visibility
  • No granular zone-based optimization
  • Like many industrial sites, the building relied on preventive overconditioning to avoid operational risk.

    The result: hidden energy overconsumption.

    Dracula needed a way to optimize performance without destabilizing environmental conditions.

    The Solution: Adding a Digital Environmental Layer

    Orioma deployed a non-intrusive IoT infrastructure based on:

    LOBX Multi-Measurement Sensors

  • Real-time occupancy counting
  • Continuous temperature tracking
  • Light measurement
  • Overheating alerts
  • Autonomous wireless deployment
  • Orioconnect Platform

  • Centralized environmental dashboards
  • Zone-based monitoring
  • API integration
  • Remote firmware updates
  • Deployment was completed without disrupting operations.

    For the first time, Dracula could:

  • Establish energy baselines
  • Map temperature variations by zone
  • Detect overconditioning during low-occupancy periods
  • From Data to Control

    Optimization evolved in three structured phases:

    1. Baseline definition – Energy and thermal mapping
    2. Manual HVAC fine-tuning – Data-based setpoint adjustments
    3. Automated occupancy-based regulation – Dynamic control logic

    By correlating real occupancy with HVAC operation, Dracula Technologies achieved a validated 25% energy reduction across office areas.
