Turning energy data into energy intelligence.
Smart metering is transforming the utility industry, providing far-reaching economic, operational and environmental benefits.
True smart metering requires an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), with full-scale bi-directional data communication to fulfill its potential. Siemens has extensive partnerships including eMeter, a leader in the MDMS field. These relationships enable Siemens to provide truly versatile solutions capable of supporting multiple communication technologies and multiple meter vendors. Siemens industry and operational expertise along with our own state-of-the-art solutions and software provides customers with a scaleable, flexible AMI foundation, which fully support customers who want to leverage the full benefit of accessing and disseminating metering data.
Our smart metering solutions offer many benefits for utilities and consumers:
- Lifetime cost reductions while supporting enhanced functionality for the future
- Accurate, timely billing
- Reduction of non-technical losses – energy theft detection
- Support energy feed in – Real time monitoring and grid management of energy feed in
- Reduction of over-/underload (active and passive) – demand side management
- Improvement of grid reliability – outage management and prognosis
- Revenue management - reduction of accounts receivables, pre-payment, load shaping
- Increase of customer satisfaction and loyalty – custom tariffs
- Active marketing to increase consumer sensitivity to energy wastage and savings
- Consumer engagement through innovative in-home technologies
Turning energy data into energy intelligence.
Our solutions deliver highly accurate measurement of wholesale electricity connection points providing metering and monitoring of EHV / HV / MV power systems for energy and power measurement, management and control.
The accuracy of metered data is vital. The amount of electricity generated, distributed and supplied needs to be measured exactly to avoid any potential problems with billing and payment and to comply with legal requirements.
Siemens grid metering solutions are designed to:
- Interface in real-time to network control systems
- Compensate for a wide variety of physical metering errors and system losses
- Measure the full range of supply and quality characteristics
- Have exceptional reliability and accuracy over the installed lifetime
- Provide the definitive source data for all wholesale energy transactions
We provide turnkey and bespoke metering services for Generation, Transmission and Distribution companies either directly, via projects or through fully managed operational services.
