Room for big ideas: PPC builds new test and demo center

Spanning more than 100 m², the center provides a modern environment for development and live demonstrations of the intelligent metering system, CLS components, communication technologies, and the Network Management System (NMS). With more than 1,000 test stations, the entire spectrum from interoperability to development support can be covered.

That was E-world 2026

E-World is and remains one of the most important exchange platforms for our industry – and this year was no exception. With around 33,000 visitors and over 920 exhibitors, there were plenty of opportunities to initiate new joint projects. This year's highlight? The launch of our EEBUS Relais Converter in collaboration with Weidmüller.

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.

Digital control meets relays: Weidmüller and PPC launch new solution for control rollout with EEBUS relay converter

At E-world, Weidmüller and PPC are demonstrating the EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC), a solution for control in accordance with Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) at the interface between EEBUS digital and relay analogue. The jointly developed product translates digital EEBUS control signals into analogue relay switching commands. This means that even non-digital systems can be controlled by an SMGWplus in accordance with the requirements of Section 14a EnWG and Section 9 EEG.
