01
Greater utility independence
Combine on-site generation, energy storage and water reuse to reduce external resource demand.
Resilient Buildings
Grid-independence for essential building services.
The Circl approach
Integrated resources. More independent buildings.
Integrated energy and water infrastructure that helps buildings operate with greater independence, efficiency and continuity.
Every solution is based on modular, technology-agnostic resource infrastructure — designed for long-term performance and adaptability.
Make buildings less dependent on constrained utility networks — without compromising functionality, comfort or future adaptability.
Energy grid constraints, rising demand and increasing pressure on water infrastructure challenge the development and operation of modern buildings. Circl brings local generation, storage, treatment and reuse together in one adaptable resource infrastructure concept, extending services from the central Resource Hub to the point of use.
The Circl approach
Local by design.
Adaptable by nature.
The Resource Hub is a modular, technology-agnostic infrastructure concept: select the technologies the project needs, integrate them through defined interfaces and enable future adaptation without redesigning the entire system.
Why Circl
Six reasons to build differently.
Benefits are tailored to the operating requirements and infrastructure of each project.
02
Technology-agnostic architecture
Modular, replaceable technology skids make future upgrades and component replacements easier.
03
Prefab, point-of-use integration
With ERA Prefab Systems, installation skids support efficient distribution into shafts, bathrooms and other use points.
04
Lower operating demand
Coordinate energy flows and water reuse to target reduced network consumption and resource costs.
05
Long-term flexibility
Adapt the configuration as building loads, technical standards and available technologies evolve.
06
Connected asset intelligence
Optional monitoring and maintenance insights can be supported by Circl Impact Data.
Technical architecture
Technology that works together.
A practical system configuration, adapted to local demand, regulatory conditions and the required service level.
Conceptual technology setup · Residential & Commercial
Illustrative engineering concept — final interfaces and requirements are project-specific.
Local generationSolar PV on roofs or façades; additional sources where appropriate.
Electrical storageModular battery skids for balancing, peak shaving and resilience.
Thermal storageSeasonal and/or shorter-term heat storage, where technically feasible.
Circular waterRainwater and greywater treatment, storage and appropriate reuse.
Energy & water managementLocal EMS and control systems coordinate sources, reserves and demand.
Distribution to point of usePrefabricated shaft and bathroom skids, with segregated supply lines where required.
Modular infrastructure
Replace a technology. Not the entire system.
The skid-based approach is designed around modular components and defined integration points. It enables technology upgrades and maintenance interventions while supporting the longer-term use of the surrounding infrastructure.
- Technology-agnostic selection of suitable components
- Skid-based modules that can be maintained and replaced
- System-level monitoring and intelligent operation
- Engineering based on lifecycle performance
