One Gateway, 20 Meters: How 1:n enables scalable smart meter rollout

The need to connect multiple meters to a smart meter gateway has long been a topic of discussion in the industry. Technically speaking, 1-to-n connectivity is no longer a distant prospect; even connecting several dozen meters is easily achievable. What matters most are the design and installation, which must function reliably in the field over the long term.

EEBUS Relais Converter: Bridging the gap between digital control and analog systems

TAF 10 is the function of the smart meter gateway that goes far beyond mere billing and makes the gateway the central component for transparency in the smart grid. It turns the smart meter gateway into a standardized sensor in the distribution network—not just in specific areas, but across the board.

Planning ahead instead of making corrections: adjustments according to the target curve

A new white paper shows how the existing infrastructure of the intelligent metering system (iMSys) can be developed from a primarily curative to a preventive, market-oriented control system. The focus is on the envelope curve concept according to EEBUS Use Case POEN.

Energy Metering relies on EEBUS relay converters from Weidmüller and PPC to accelerate the control rollout

The EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC) enables digital control even where only relay switching inputs are available – and is therefore ready to accelerate the control rollout with immediate effect. The product was developed jointly by PPC and Weidmüller. Energy Metering, a subsidiary of Octopus Energy, a competitive metering point operator, was also involved from the outset. The solution will simplify the implementation of Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG). Delivery will start in mid-2026.
