To protect personal data, it has therefore not previously been possible to reuse smart meter gateways after their initial installation and commissioning.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2018DoDeleteUserData\u2019 function, now implemented by PPC, lays the groundwork for reuse and enables a smart meter gateway that has already been commissioned to be reinstalled at a different location.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greater sustainability for the roll-out<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The new function was implemented as part of the implementation of TR-03109-1 V2.<\/p>\n<p>With the certified \u201cDoDeleteUserData\u201d function, it will in future be possible to delete personal data from the smart meter gateway when there is a change of user. Data required, for example, for metrological checks is stored in the backend in accordance with the specified time limits.<\/p>\n<p>Functioning devices remain in service and can continue to be used. This offers significant advantages for metering point operators:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More efficient operational and roll-out processes<\/li>\n<li>More sustainable use of resources<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Available with TR-03109-1 V2 certification<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2018DoDeleteUserData\u2019 provides a solution that combines data protection, cost-effectiveness and sustainability. The ability to safely reuse smart meter gateways reduces costs whilst supporting the sustainable roll-out of SMGWs. The function will be available upon completion of certification in accordance with TR-03109-1 V2.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-modal modal fade modal-1 Contacteng\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\"
