Case Studies
Real stories of corporate-company collaboration — from innovation challenge to measurable impact.
Prengi × Ukrposhta
Smart building management platform deployed across postal network
The Challenge
Ukrposhta operates one of Ukraine’s largest building networks with enormous energy costs. They needed a scalable solution for monitoring and optimizing energy consumption across hundreds of post offices.
The Solution
Prengi — a CIV beneficiary — developed an IoT-based property management platform that teaches building equipment to communicate about maintenance needs, optimizing energy use and predicting failures before they happen.
The Process
- Prengi received CIV grant (Climate Innovation Vouchers, Wave 3)
- Greencubator facilitated introduction to Ukrposhta
- Pilot deployed on a group of post offices
- Working prototype validated — data collected for network-wide scaling
