For Sports and Event Venues
Noda works as a virtual building engineer across stadiums, arenas, and convention centers, cutting energy costs whether a venue is sold out or empty.
Noda finds savings in the central plants and air handlers serving seating bowls, concourses, suites, and exhibit halls, through busy schedules and the quiet stretches in between.
Venue chiller plants are sized for a full house on the hottest day of the year, and most of the time they run well below that load. Noda's AI agents find setpoints that waste energy at part load, such as cooling tower fans held at full speed, and write up each fix as a Project ready to accept.
Explore the Intelligence LayerMost venues sit empty on far more days than they host events, yet air handlers serving concourses, suites, and exhibit halls often keep event-day schedules. Noda checks each unit against its occupancy schedule and flags units that run while their spaces sit empty.
Explore the platformWhen a concourse runs warm mid-event, engineers can ask the Noda Assistant why. It reasons over the venue's trend data, equipment relationships, and open Insights, and links each conclusion to the data behind it.
Explore the Noda AssistantAHU-N3 held its 55°F discharge setpoint until 8:40 PM, then drifted to 61°F with its chilled water valve fully open.
CH-2 shut down at 8:36 PM, and CH-1 carried the plant alone for the rest of the event, so chilled water supply rose with the load.
Noda measures each completed Project against a weather-adjusted baseline, so venue leadership and sustainability partners see what each season's changes saved in dollars, energy, and emissions.
See Noda for sustainability teamsNoda flags plant and air handler faults on quiet days, giving crews time to fix them ahead of the next crowd.
Measured energy and emissions reductions support team, league, and venue sustainability commitments.
Noda finds plant and air-side savings even in recently built venues, whose design sequences are rarely tuned to how the building runs day to day.
Noda reads each venue's BMS over BACnet/IP, Modbus, or MQTT through the Noda LaunchPad, a secure on‑premises gateway that collects data around the clock.
“The partnership with Noda is a reflection of Globe Life Field’s emphasis on energy efficiency. We are thrilled to be among the early adopters of their technology and continue to reap the rewards from using their solution. We look forward to more utility cost savings.”
A new MLB stadium — with the largest single-panel retractable roof in the world — ran its condenser water plant at a fixed supply temperature, forcing chillers into low-efficiency operation with cooling tower fans pegged at 100%. A dynamic CWST reset tied to outside air conditions dropped plant efficiency from 0.91 to 0.59 kW/ton, a 32% gain.
Yes. Between events, Noda checks air handlers and plant equipment against each space's occupancy schedule and flags units running for empty spaces.
Noda's recommendations go to the venue's engineering team, and the team decides which to accept and when to make each change.
Yes. Exhibit halls, meeting rooms, and ballrooms sit in the same model as seating bowls and concourses, and Noda analyzes the air handlers and plant serving each.
Yes. Noda analyzes the central plant and air handlers whatever the venue's design, including at an MLB ballpark with a retractable roof.
