A start-up collaborating with Apple and backed by Nvidia’s venture arm has launched what it calls the world’s first “fully autonomous” platform that applies generative AI to heating and cooling systems.
Why it matters: Americans spend around $190 billion a year powering buildings — generating around one-third of total U.S. carbon emissions — and the company claims it can cut building energy costs by around one-third.
Details: PassiveLogic says its customizable “generative autonomy” systems manage building infrastructure from a few hundred sensors and controls for small buildings to 1 million for large commercial towers.
