Carrier Abound Crosses a New Milestone in Accelerating Customers’ Decarbonization Journeys – Saving 7 Billion kWh
Kennesaw, Ga., April 7, 2026 - Carrier Abound, part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions, today announced it has surpassed 7 billion kilowatt hours (kWh) of cumulative energy savings delivered for its customers worldwide. This is a milestone in Carrier’s broader goal of helping customers reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve the sustainability of the built environment. This progress is enabled through Carrier Abound’s use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT), combined with expert remote support from a global network of Carrier Customer Command Centers.
Buildings account for approximately 30% of global energy demand1. As businesses face rising energy costs, aging infrastructure and pressure to meet sustainability goals, Carrier Abound’s AI and IoT-enabled solutions are helping customers move from reactive operations to intelligent, data-driven building ecosystems.
The savings are equivalent to an estimated avoidance of approximately 4.7 million metric tons of CO2, underscoring how digital transformation of operations can support both business performance and sustainability goals2. As regulatory requirements and sustainability commitments evolve, AI enabled solutions are emerging as a cost effective pathway for organizations to support sustainability goals.
“Surpassing 7 billion kWh in energy savings demonstrates the scale of impact that’s possible when technology, operational expertise and a relentless focus on solving customer challenges come together,” said Niraj Desai, Managing Director, Carrier Abound. “It’s a great example of AI-enabled building intelligence applied at scale.”
Across more than 32,000 sites worldwide, Carrier Abound leverages technology-agnostic edge connectivity, the Abound Insights artificial intelligence platform and a global network of Carrier Customer Command Centers to support building operations. These capabilities are deployed across diverse building portfolios, including retail, restaurants, higher education, commercial offices and more, enabling the delivery of capabilities such as centralized visibility, predictive maintenance tools and remote support.
When applied across distributed building portfolios, these capabilities deliver measurable operational and sustainability outcomes. Customers have:
- received up to 24% energy savings over baseline performance.
- maintained up to 94% temperature compliance with policy setpoints across their sites,
- experienced up to 82% of work orders being resolved remotely, reducing the need for on-site maintenance.
By offering customers the flexibility to use smart automation, AI driven insights, expert consultation, and proactive remote support, Carrier Abound helps customers operate buildings more efficiently while advancing Carrier’s goal of creating solutions for the world we share.
