Dotz Energy
Our Technology

One platform. Four layers of energy intelligence.

Dotz Energy combines AI, engineering, sensing, metering and energy recovery into a single operating layer — designed to cut the energy and carbon of heating and cooling in complex buildings, without replacing the plant room or chiller plant they already run.

Our solution

One integrated platform, working as a single system.

Equipment, sensing and energy sources connect to the Dotz AI control platform — which runs them as one optimised system and turns them into measured savings and lower carbon.

The complete stack

More than heat pumps — a full energy stack.

Heat pumps are one part of it. The platform also integrates thermal storage, sensing, energy recovery, renewable heat and carbon capture — all run by one AI control centre that prices electricity in real time and tunes the whole site together.

Control centre with AI

The brain of the plant room. A live control centre where the Dotz AI weighs demand, tariffs, weather and performance, then runs every connected system on the most efficient strategy — all on one screen.

Thermal storage

Dotz Energy storage tanks bank heat when energy is cheapest and cleanest, then release it on demand — shifting load off expensive peaks and smoothing supply across the day.

Heat pumps

High-efficiency heat pumps produce heating and hot water for a fraction of the energy of combustion.

Sensors & metering

Live sensing and sub-metering turn the plant room into real-time data the AI can act on — and measure.

Electricity-cost optimization

The platform continuously prices grid energy, tariffs and demand charges against on-site supply, so the site runs in the cheapest, cleanest hours.

Energy recovery

Usable heat already in the building — including process and rejected heat — is recovered and reused instead of wasted.

Renewable heat

Low-carbon heat sources displace fuel-based generation where the site and climate allow.

Carbon capture

Where boilers stay in service, point-source capture removes CO₂ from the flue gas before it reaches the stack.

Every element is optional and selected per site — then orchestrated as one system by the Dotz AI control centre.

How the platform works

Four layers, one operating system for energy.

Each layer does one job well — and they share the same live data, so the whole platform improves together.

01Intelligence

The AI layer that runs the plant room.

The Dotz Intelligence Layer is the decision-making core of the platform. It continuously reads live plant-room data, heating demand, tariffs, weather, occupancy and performance trends — then chooses the most efficient way to produce the heat and hot water a building needs, minute by minute.

02Optimization

Lower-energy heat, hot water and cooling.

Thermal Optimization reduces the energy it takes to produce the heat and cooling a building or process needs. Dotz Energy finds where existing systems — including the chiller plant, through ChillerAI — can run more efficiently, where heat can be recovered or supplied from renewable sources, and where operating logic can be improved, then puts those gains under continuous AI control. For industrial loads, that means lower-carbon heat and cooling without interrupting production.

Industrial, process & district heat

Industrial sites, institutions and whole villages on district heating carry some of the largest, most continuous heat loads — and some of the highest emissions. Dotz Energy integrates renewable heat, heat pumps, thermal storage, recovery, sensing and carbon capture into the existing central plant, then optimizes it with AI to cut energy intensity and carbon without interrupting supply.

ChillerAI

The same intelligence layer runs cooling, too. Dotz ChillerAI adds sensors, metering and AI control to the chiller plant a site already runs — no mechanical replacement — targeting 17–35% lower cooling energy use.

03Evidence

Every saving, metered and proven.

Measurement & Verification turns energy savings into a number both sides can trust. Dotz Energy meters performance live, calculates how much energy and carbon has been saved against a baseline, and reports it — the evidence base that makes performance-based shared savings possible.

04Carbon

Carbon you can cut, capture and report.

Carbon Intelligence helps customers reduce, capture and report the emissions from heating and energy-intensive operations — built on measured performance, not estimates. Most of the reduction comes from burning far less fuel; and where combustion has to stay, Dotz Energy can capture part of the CO₂ straight from the boiler flue before it reaches the stack. The result is an auditable reduction number that supports ESG reporting, green funding and decarbonization targets.

Carbon capture

The biggest carbon win is burning far less fuel. But where a boiler has to keep running, Dotz Energy can add point-source capture — pulling CO₂ from the flue gas before it reaches the stack (Boiler flue → capture → cleaned exhaust), metered and reported alongside the energy savings.

Deployment

Assess → Integrate → Optimize → Verify

A technology-enabled deployment that works with the plant room you already run — reducing energy and carbon while operations continue, with no major disruption.

01

Assess

Model the building's energy profile, plant-room configuration, tariffs and carbon baseline.

02

Integrate

Connect the Dotz Energy platform to the existing plant room, with minimal operational disruption.

03

Optimize

Use AI-assisted operating logic to reduce energy use, cost and emissions.

04

Verify

Measure energy reduction, emissions impact and savings through live reporting.

At the heart of the heat layer

Heat pumps: move heat, don't burn fuel.

A heat pump moves existing heat instead of burning fuel — using a little electricity to draw renewable heat from the air, water or ground, it typically delivers around four units of heat for every one it consumes.

Performance varies by building, climate, tariffs, existing equipment, baseline energy use and operating profile. Dotz Energy confirms expected savings through site assessment, modelling and measurement.
