Michele Ammendola

R&D Manager and Co-founder
Termogea

Termogea Co-founder (https://www.termogea.com/)
I'm managing the R&D activities as well as the business development in several countries, both in North America and Europe.
I spent the first part of my carreer in the Mobile Telecom sector which I am now "connecting" to the Energy efficiency sector for homes and offices.

After a number of in-field trials, in 2015 I co-founded Termogea, a monitoring and control system designed to increase the building's energy efficiency and comfort.

The main technologies used are: Edge computing, IoT, Cloud, actuators, sensors and new algorithms for the best integration of PV production and Thermal production in a house or office.
It integrates several systems such as: Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning (HVAC), PV, battery and car charging systems. 
It can be used on small cottages, apartments as well as big condominiums or large offices.
