Clearworld

What Clearworld does

Clearworld, headquartered in Harrogate, United Kingdom, and operating as a registered trading company of AB Group, sells and services wireless energy reduction technology for multi-site commercial estates. Its flagship offering is Vision iQ™, a wireless Energy Management System (EMS 4.0) built on LoRaWAN infrastructure that connects proprietary gateways, sensors and control devices across retail, hospitality, industrial and aviation estates. The platform comprises two sub-modules — Energy iQ for wireless control of HVAC, lighting, sockets, heating, hot water and refrigeration, and Sense iQ for LoRaWAN-based monitoring of environmental conditions, water usage, leaks, cold chain and occupancy — alongside a BMS Optimisation service that overlays wireless control onto legacy Building Management Systems without rewiring.

The business sells primarily on a CapEx basis: customers purchase the hardware outright, own their data, and pay no recurring software subscription. Revenue also comes from installation services, free initial data audits, BMS optimisation assessments, and business-case development. Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise field sales supported by website-led demand capture (a multi-step 'Start Your Project' form) and educational content marketing; no channel partners, resellers or marketplace distribution are disclosed. Operations and revenue are UK-only.

Customers include Wagamama, Co-op, Frasers Group, Moto, Brunning & Price, British Heart Foundation, Rontec Roadside Retail, DS Smith and Farnborough Airport, with client portfolios ranging from 40 to 850+ sites. Clearworld reports an average 19% energy savings across client estates, a 12-month average ROI, and a 10-30% energy usage reduction for most customers — most notably a 13% electricity reduction disclosed in the Wagamama case study. Accreditations include UKAS ISOQAR CL 27, the ACS Approved Contractor Scheme, and UK Water Management Association membership, supporting credibility in compliance-driven procurement such as ESOS, SECR and legionella management.

Core offering

Clearworld designs, supplies, and supports Vision iQ™, a wireless Energy Management System (EMS 4.0) built on LoRaWAN technology for multi-site commercial estates. The offering includes the Vision iQ cloud platform, proprietary wireless hardware (gateways, smart sockets, TRV valves, AC controls, lighting controls, energy monitors, and IoT sensors), and professional services such as installation, BMS optimisation audits, and ROI business case development. Customers purchase hardware outright (CapEx model) with no subscription fees, and the system integrates with existing Building Management Systems or operates independently.

Product overview

Clearworld offers Vision iQ™, a unified wireless Energy Management System (EMS 4.0) platform designed for multi-site commercial estates. The architecture consists of the core Vision iQ™ platform with two integrated sub-modules: Energy iQ (for wireless control of high-energy assets including HVAC, lighting, sockets, heating, and refrigeration) and Sense iQ (for LoRaWAN IoT sensor monitoring of environmental conditions, leaks, temperature, water, and occupancy). The platform supports both standalone operation and integration with existing Building Management Systems via open protocols. A comprehensive range of proprietary wireless hardware devices (AC controllers, smart sockets, TRV valves, lighting controls, energy monitors, and various sensors) connects via LoRaWAN to Vision iQ™ gateways, enabling device-level monitoring and control. The company also provides BMS Optimisation services to layer wireless capabilities over legacy infrastructure. The platform delivers real-time visibility, automated scheduling, live alerts, benchmarking, and ESG/carbon compliance reporting across portfolios.
