EnOcean &BACnet Interoperability

BACnet International (www.bacnetinternational.org) and the EnOcean Alliance (www.enocean-alliance.org) announced cooperation with BACnet’s Wireless Networking-Working Group (WN-WG) to develop a vendor independent gateway specification for integrating EnOcean-based wireless energy-harvesting nodes into the BACnet data communications protocol. The working group’s standardization efforts aim to ensure the interoperability of multiple EnOcean and BACnet solutions available today or in development, as well as future implementations.
