20 years of sustainable investment in building automation
Dortmund, Germany / Atlanta, GA, USA: April 4th, 2014. – BACnet
International and the BACnet Interest Group Europe (BIG-EU) are
celebrating two BACnet anniversaries in 2014 and 2015: 10 years DIN EN
ISO 16484-5 and 20 years ANSI/ASHRAE 135! In that time the open
communication standard has become an unprecedented enabler of
sustainable building automation.
To bring the powerful message of BACnet benefits to a wider audience, a
global anniversary roadshow is intended in 2014/2015. BACnet
International and the BIG-EU are supporting a call for sponsors that
enables MarDirect to organize the global event. Initial planning
focusses on 12 modern cities in America, Europe and Asia. All locations
would include a state-of-the-art exhibition and provide the latest
information about open communication in building automation, the
development of standardization, interoperability of BACnet devices, the
BTL Mark and European Certification as well as information about BACnet
vendors and suppliers.
From Ithaca, New York to the world
BACnet plays a significant role in building automation projects all
over the world. The BACnet International and BIG-EU associations
represent major global manufacturers, integrators and user
companies. The associations are committed to educating users and
suppliers about the value of BACnet solutions.

open communication protocol was created to connect the proprietary
building automation devices and control systems of Cornell University,
Ithaca, New York. Under the umbrella of ASHRAE, the protocol, now
developed and known as protocol for Building Automation and Control
Networks (BACnet) became ANSI standard in 1995.
In 2003-2004 it was published as DIN EN ISO standard. Today more than
720 vendor IDs have been distributed, more than 600 devices -
classified in 9 profiles - “speak” BACnet and comply with the
requirements of the standard.
The 10/20 anniversaries of the BACnet standard is a unique chance to
reflect the benefits of BACnet for sustainable buildings in terms of
construction, retrofitting and integration in smart grids.
