Our Technology | Swarm Logic®
We are empowering some of the biggest retailers and other multi-site companies to combat HVAC-related energy challenges.
HVAC systems have inherent shortcomings that result in energy waste or the inability to minimize peak demand. For instance, HVAC rooftop units (RTUs) are often oversized for a building’s requirements. Similarly, traditional building controls use static business rules that must work across a wide range of operating conditions. These challenges limit companies’ ability to optimize HVAC demand and energy performance in real time.
Heavily burdened energy and facility managers struggle to find innovative and affordable ways to reduce electrical spend. Encycle can help.
Encycle delivers instant energy savings with Swarm Logic, our AI-enhanced, data-driven technology.
Encycle leverages the power of artificial intelligence to dramatically reduce HVAC-related electricity usage and carbon emissions. Our unique Swarm Logic multi-patented, HVAC energy management technology integrates with building automation systems (BAS), smart thermostats, or IoT platforms to dynamically synchronize power-hungry RTU control decisions on a real-time basis. This allows the RTUs to operate more efficiently in response to changing conditions such as outdoor temperature and building occupancy levels.
Instead of operating in isolation, the RTUs become part of an IoT-based, closed-loop system that coordinates their activity, apportioning energy consumption more logically among them. This cloud-based approach lowers electricity costs, maximizes energy efficiency, and reduces environmental impact while maintaining desired building comfort levels.
Deployed as a software as a service (SaaS) solution, Swarm Logic typically saves customers 10%-20% on HVAC-related energy consumption, cost, and demand.
How it works
Our advanced Swarm Logic HVAC energy management technology performs five key functions within a closed-loop system to deliver up to 20% reductions in HVAC-related kW, kWh, and CO2. The process repeats itself 24/7/365, with Swarm Logic operating quietly in the background and requiring no human interaction to maintain or monitor its actions.
Improving the operational efficiency of HVAC systems through biomimicry: a nature-inspired approach to innovation
The concept of biomimicry for today’s businesses is one that’s gaining momentum across the energy and sustainability spectrum. More than a buzzword, biomimicry looks at nature’s best ideas, then imitates their design and processes to create better solutions that benefit the environment, people, and bottom lines.

Select your building control system approach.
The beauty of Swarm Logic is that it can be integrated with existing building automation systems (BAS) or compatible smart thermostats, delivering a valuable solution for everyone.
Don’t have a BAS or smart thermostats? Encycle partners with several leading BAS and thermostat OEMs in the industry. Since we are independent, we can provide equitable guidance to which types of technologies will best fit your needs.
Many customers find they cannot justify the deployment of a robust BAS for financial or operational reasons, and that is perfectly fine. We can help them realize similar advantages by implementing Encycle’s SwarmStat™ solution that delivers all the control benefits associated with a smart thermostat plus the savings of Swarm Logic.
Swarm Logic complements existing building control technologies to achieve even greater savings. Choose the approach that works best for your needs and your budget.
