JT has expanded its intelligent engineering and home automation service offering by acquiring Jersey-based company Zero1.
Founded in 2010, Zero1 designs and supplies environment and entertainment automation systems for homes and businesses in the Channel Islands.
As more homes have become workplaces and schools during the recent pandemic, they have needed to be able to run smart applications and connected devices. Zero1’s solutions combine with JT’s fibre network and resources to support this.
Daragh McDermott (pictured), Managing Director of JT Channel Islands, said: “Zero1 provides us with an opportunity to move into the growing world of 'smart', automated and sustainable living.
“We can now use green technology to create sustainable buildings that keep track of our energy and water consumption and then decrease it through automation and connectivity. This will reduce environmental impact, contributing to the island’s target to be ‘carbon neutral’ by 2030.”
