CACTUS project completed: Greater transparency for the low-voltage grid
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.
The TAF 10: How the smart meter gateway becomes the most important sensor in the power grid
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.
Energy Metering, Calisen and PPC conclude largest meter asset provider agreement for the German market
Strong momentum for the rollout of smart meters in Germany: PPC, Energy Metering and Calisen conclude the largest Meter Asset Provider (MAP) agreement for the German market. In the MAP model, Calisen purchases and owns intelligent metering systems (iMSys) and leases these assets to wMSB Energy Metering on a long-term basis. As a competitive metering point operator, Energy Metering installs the iMSys as part of its services by its own customers. Calisen is thus making international capital available for the German smart meter rollout.
initEnergy becomes part of PPC connect: Successful interoperability with EEBUS
PPC presents the PPC connect Award to initEnergy at E-World, recognizing the successful interoperability for Section 9 EEG and Section 14a EnWG between the EnergyGateway from initEnergy and the CLS Adapter from PPC.

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.
