KT, South Korea's largest telecommunications company, plans to launch a suite of smart building services in cooperation with its subsidiary, KT Estate. 

Employees at KT Estate’s smart integrated control center at Bundang, Gyeonggi Province, Korea, introduce KT’s smart building services.The new ICT-based integrated service consists of "Smart Building Sensing" and "Smart Building BEMS", the nation's top telecom company said.

"Smart Building Sensing" monitors boilers, water tanks, motors and other operational facilities, alerting the building manager in real time to breakdowns, glitches and other malfunctions. The company's IoT control center assists through around-the-clock, remote monitoring. "Smart Building BEMS" is a building energy management system jointly developed by KT and KT Estate, which specializes in property development and management. It is a real-time energy management and operational consulting service for building owners and constructors. Those who apply for building permits are required to submit an energy-saving plan that entails a building energy management system (BEMS) that monitors and controls a building's energy needs. 

Proof that the BEMS meets regulations must be shown before the building is used. Currently, public buildings with a floor space of 10,000 square meters or more are required to set up a BEMS. The regulation is scheduled to be extended in 2025 to private buildings with a floor space of 1,000 square meters or more and public buildings with a floor space of 500 square meters or more.
