Connected buildings: Equipment monitoring
Monitoring and maintenance of connected station infrastructure equipment such as lighting and escalators
SNCF Gares & Connexions – the operator of France’s railway infrastructure, including stations – has called upon the Kuzzle IoT Open-Source IoT to support its plan for the remote monitoring and management of the Aix-en-Provence TGV station.
By implementing remote sensors, the Open-Source IoT platform Kuzzle IoT ensures that information and alerts are received in real time the technical teams can intervene as soon as a malfunction is identified.
SNCF thus optimises its energy expenditure and can carry out preventative maintenance more efficiently, thus increasing passenger comfort.

Kuzzle IoT: the platform for Industry 4.0
Remote and real time management of connected equipment in stations with Kuzzle IoT:
- Management of lighting zones from the Kuzzle IoT application.
- Monitoring of lifts, escalators, and automatic doors, with alerts for any malfunctions.
- Temperature, heating, and air conditioning management in stations.
- Monitoring equipment and maintenance efficiency.
- Measuring air quality in buildings and setting up alerts.
- Monitoring solar power production, as well as consumption at the electric vehicle charge points.
- Kuzzle IoT smart platform on mobile devices
Results ans projections
Real-time visualization of data via a mobile/web application developed with Kuzzle IoT along with the latest generation of analytical tools allow the station’s technical staff and maintenance teams to ensure precise monitoring and management of equipment, improving responsiveness and reducing energy costs.
In the future, connected infrastructure, combined with intelligent analysis systems, will be able to act autonomously to optimise energy consumption and resource use to prevent failures and trigger preventive maintenance.
SNCF Gares & Connexions aims to transform stations into places of daily life in their own right.
Through its missions of operating, developing, and transforming stations, as well as creating services and shops, SNCF Gares & Connexions opens up stations to the cities they serve and contributes to local economic development.
