Designed by architect Gilbert Autret from Orléans in collaboration with the offices of ECI and ECR for thermal studies, the Ecosm contains some 182 sensors (temperature, humidity, light, rain, wind, pressure, etc..) in the walls, the network Canadian wells, outside, etc.. allowing a recovery of actual data on the life of this unusual building.
Committed to sustainable development in all spheres of its activity, WIRECOM Technologies extends its involvement within its head office as well.
Created on the theme of originality and the environment, this building is a combination of ancestral techniques and new technologies.
L’Ecosm uses renewable energies: the soil and the sun as a source of energy, light to produce electricity, air to regulate temperature and matter to conserve heat or the coolness desired. It regulates itself by recovering energy then redistributing it while taking into account environmental factors.
In the capacity of an expert in energy management, WIRECOM Technologies has naturally incorporated its system of intelligent regulation in its building. 243 EcoModules and 182 sensors optimise the energy demand. The regulation system manages comfort in the offices and in the Greenhouse, that enables to attain a lower level of consumption (<50 kWh/m².an).
Constructed after 8 months of work, visited for the first time by the President of the Republic, Nicolas Sarkozy, the Minister of Economy Christine Largarde and the secretary of State incharge of ecology Nathalie Kosciusko Morizet, on the 22nd of May 2008, then officially inaugurated on the 26th of june in the presence of the Secretary of State incharge of digital development Éric Besson, it has already been an absolute success.
