The EL-WG is developing extensions to allow the monitoring of elevator systems with the BACnet protocol.
Integrating elevators into BACnet systems permits common observation and reporting stations for alarms and other events from elevators along with other BACnet building systems. Making elevators’ self-aware energy usage available to the building systems will also be a key element in building energy-efficiency systems and the Smart Grid.
