MPark Stockland in Sydney’s Macquarie Park now epitomises the fusion of intuitive design and sustainability, reshaping the future of commercial spaces
Melbourne Quarter achieves precinct-wide connectivity and operational efficiency through innovative integration of modern and legacy technologies.
Melbourne Quarter, developed by Lendlease, is a visionary mixed-use precinct in the heart of Melbourne. Combining state-of-the-art technology with sustainable design, it seamlessly connects new and existing infrastructure to create a highly efficient and cyber-secure environment. This modern precinct enhances operational capabilities while providing a streamlined, connected experience for its users.
The Goal
The objective wasn’t just to build an edifice but to integrate top-tier technologies that would offer superior connectivity, energy efficiency, and security. With the rising threats of cyber-attacks and the need for seamless integration of building systems, the developers sought to implement an efficient Integrated Communications Network (ICN) and an Energy Management System (EMS).
Key Solutions
Wireless Access Points
Amplifying the connected experience for all users within the precinct.
Real-time monitoring and control of building subsystems
Advance trend analysis and storage of real-time data streams. Integration to leading fault detection and diagnostic system for rule based analytics.
Optergy EMS
To provide efficient energy management, ensuring the building operated at peak efficiency whilst minimising its environmental footprint.
ICN using Cisco
To ensure all building services connected seamlessly on a central network, providing optimal structure and a high level of security against potential cyber threats.
The Results
M_Park has made notable advancements in its facilities, significantly enhancing security through an integrated ICN that protects systems and minimises risks, ensuring data and operations are safe. It also offers unmatched connectivity, thanks to the ICN and wireless access, facilitating a flawless experience for those within. Additionally, the EMS promotes sustainability by reducing the carbon footprint and increasing energy efficiency, which, in turn, cuts operational costs. This positions MPark as a beacon of modern, efficient, and secure urban developments.
The EMS provides real-time monitoring and control of energy usage, ensuring peak efficiency, reduced energy waste, and resulting in significant cost savings.
The ICN interconnectivity allows for rapid response to any changes or issues, enhancing building performance.
The integration of ICN and EMS, provides centralisation for quicker decision-making and more efficient building operations.
