The energy system is experiencing systemic change. Generation is becoming decentralized and decarbonized with increased amounts of volatile renewable energy in the mix. Loads are becoming more flexible and grid operations more digitalized. To adapt and transform, Distribution System Operators (DSOs) require new capabilities to maintain and improve resiliency, flexibility, transparency and security. New solutions that help meeting these challenges are available and the key to unlock them lies in the intelligence at the edge of smart metering infrastructures.

Grästorp Energi chose the Landis+Gyr Gridstream© Connect platform with Point-to-Point communicating E360 meters for residential use, E570 commercial meters, including NB-IoT communication and SaaS-solution (Software as a Service). Thanks to Landis+Gyr’s technology and services, Grästorp Energi can focus on their core business and future development.

The energy industry is in a phase of unprecedented disruption with decarbonisation, decentralisation and digitalisation, the 3Ds, as key drivers. At Landis+Gyr, we’re excited to participate in this transformation and to introduce new technologies to manage energy better.

The fibre optics network in Switzerland is growing and sets the foundation for high-speed internet for businesses and households across the country. Optical fibre makes it possible to transmit more data simultaneously and quickly – which is fantastic for streaming, gaming or surfing, but also for smart metering! How the fibre optics network can become an integral part of a smart metering solutions shows a pilot project with conducted together with our customer Energie Wasser Bern.

Data management services and analytics are the key catalysts driving the Internet of Things innovations now being widely adopted by utilities to transform their operations and managerial capabilities.
