Our Services

With the restart of the digitalization of the energy transition (GNDEW), the legislator is pursuing the goal of accelerating the stalled roll-out of intelligent metering systems (iMSys) as a secure data hub and, at the same time, increasing the number of mandatory installations. Due to the increasing number of iMSys, the metering point operator requires secure and robust systems for device procurement, technical commissioning, and operation of the devices deployed in the field.

 

We support you as an IT service provider with a BSI-certified GWA solution, SaaS, in our own data centers. On request, we offer the entire value chain in intelligent metering and significantly contribute to the success of the digitalization of the energy transition.

The Operation of Smart Metering Systems (iMSys)

Challenge

Smart metering systems (iMSys) have been shaping the digital transformation in the energy industry for years and are essential for achieving the energy transition. However, the rollout of smart metering systems required for this has stalled considerably and the way has now been paved for even faster installation by amending the Metering Point Operation Act (MsbG).

Vision

Based on the know-how gained in recent years in the course of the smart meter rollout, you as a metering point operator can, with our support, set up a complete infrastructure for the operation of iMSys, which is operated in a cost-efficient, scalable and highly available manner.

Solution

With our SaaS solution for the operation of iMSys, we offer freely selectable modularity and a customized service package. The solution not only includes the secure operation of IT systems in the cloud and 24/7 availability to meet increasing requirements.
