We illustrate how you can achieve the DGNB & QNG sustainability requirements with ROCKETHOME using our solutions.
Green real estate is a key issue in the modern construction industry. Various certification systems have been developed to evaluate, promote and award these according to economic and ecological criteria. Two of the most important in Germany are the standards of the DGNB (German Sustainable Building Council) and the QNG (Quality Seal for Sustainable Buildings).
In this article, we look at the DGNB and QNG criteria to illustrate how ROCKETHOME's digital solutions can help meet the requirements of the respective certification systems and support real estate developers and portfolio owners in achieving their sustainability goals and remaining competitive in the long term.
DGNB certification with ROCKETHOME
The DGNB promotes sustainable construction by developing a certification system that evaluates and compares buildings in the areas of energy efficiency, choice of materials, life cycle, comfort and health within a points system. ROCKETHOME can support DGNB certifications of buildings and thus contribute to value enhancement and competitiveness.
Howcan ROCKETHOME help with DGNB certification?
Potentially efficient use of resources by ROCKETHOME in the five DGNB assessment categories, with which real estate developers and portfolio holders can collect valuable certification points
1. ecological quality
- Energy efficiency,CO2 emissions& water consumption: ROCKETHOME offers the integration of smart building solutions for controlling heating, lighting, household appliances and the use of smart water meters for real-time monitoring of water consumption, which help to use resources more efficiently.
2. sociocultural and functional quality
- User comfort, health, accessibility & communication: ROCKETHOME improves the socio-cultural and functional quality of buildings by automating indoor climate, light/shading, indoor air quality monitoring and user-friendly, intuitive controls. The smart home app also promotes communication between owners and users & provides personalized offers for different user groups.
3. technical quality
- Energy / building management & deconstructability and flexibility: ROCKETHOME offers effective energy and building management through modular smart building solutions that optimize the control of energy use, appliances and security devices, reduce operating and maintenance costs and at the same time promote flexibility and long-term usability of the building.
4. process quality
- Commissioning and monitoring: ROCKETHOME uses intelligent systems to support the monitoring of the building and provides continuous analyses of energy efficiency. This improves the building's performance while detecting faults at an early stage.
5. innovative ability
- Innovative use of technologies: This includes, for example, the integration of AI-based energy management systems or IoT platforms, which are continuously being developed and improve building management through the use of the latest technologies.
6 Location quality
- Mobility offers at the location: ROCKETHOME promotes sustainable mobility by integrating e-mobility solutions and charging management systems as well as by providing location maps with stops and passenger information.
In every category of DGNB certification, ROCKETHOME can help you collect valuable points towards the desired certification standard.

QNG quality seal with ROCKETHOME
The Quality Seal for Sustainable Buildings (QNG) is a state certificate in Germany that was developed by the Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building (BMWSB). It promotes a uniform understanding of sustainability in the construction industry and forms the basis for the awarding of subsidies. It applies to newly constructed or modernized buildings and is a prerequisite for certain subsidies.
ROCKETHOME helps customers achieve QNG certification by providing innovative smart home and IoT solutions that contribute to meeting the requirements for sustainable buildings. The QNB certificate evaluates properties in the areas of energy efficiency, ecological operation and intelligent building technology - fields in which ROCKETHOME can provide decisive impetus with its technology.
What criteria does the QNG seal include?
- ecological quality (reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, resource-saving materials)
- economic quality (consideration of life cycle costs and value stability)
- socio-cultural and functional quality(comfort, health and accessibility for users)
- technical quality (efficient construction and dismantling options)
- Process quality (optimization of planning and construction processes)

How can ROCKETHOME help with QNG certification?
- Increasing energy efficiency: We offer intelligent control of heating, ventilation, air conditioning systems, real-time energy monitoring and automation of lighting and appliance control, optimizing energy consumption and reducing inefficient patterns.
- Promotion of renewable energies: By integrating solar and other energy sources into the smart home system, as well as smart energy storage systems, yield can be maximized and energy can be provided efficiently when demand is high.
- Sustainable building management: Sustainable building management is achieved through smart technologies to monitor and optimize water and resource consumption in real time, reducing the ecological footprint and avoiding waste.
- Smart building technologies: Smart building technologies from ROCKETHOME enable the central control and automation of lighting, heating, security and other functions as well as the integration of networked systems, which improves the efficiency of the entire building operation.
- Dataand reporting: The ROCKETHOME platform provides customers with real-time analytics on energy consumption, renewable energy and savings, which can be converted into reports to meet the sustainability criteria for QNG certification.
- Support with the certification process: ROCKETHOME supports the certification process by advising on the optimization of existing systems and provides the necessary technical specifications to prove the efficiency and sustainability of the building.
