Standard Modular Smart (today) Integrated Smart

No Communication Comms exchangeable Comms not exchangeable

No Battery Battery exchangeable Battery not exchangeable

Pure mechanical device

Room for „change the horses“ No flexibility

React on technical uncertainties High risk , especially at start

>20 years lifetime

Cover several comms standards Covers one standard

~15 years lifetime ~ 15 years lifetime

Flexible for future requirements -

today 2013 - 2016 >2016

Problem today: Various country specific standards do not allow the development of fully integrated standard Smart Meters at this point in time

Elster Smart Gas Meters today

• Market specific

‒ UK (SMETS2, 2.4 GHz ZigBee)

‒ Netherlands (DSMR, 868 wM-Bus & hard wired M-Bus)

‒ Germany (OMS, 868 wM-Bus & hard wired M-Bus)

‒ Italy (UNI/ TS), France…….

• Focussed on

‒ Modularity

‒ Battery Lifetime & Energy saving mechanism

‒ Data Security

‒ Support of European Smart Metering trials and initial roll outs

‒ Production capacity & quality

• Suitable for the whole range of Elster Meters – Not just G4

9


General Statements

10

• Currently various number of smart metering trials ongoing, mostly

driven by electricity

• Data security concepts for mass roll out need to be defined and

implemented

• Diaphragm Gas Meter as measuring sensor is hard to beat and

easy to combine with electronics.

– Long proven technology with appr. 200Mio installations EUwide

– Long lifetime / robust / battery free / very low operational costs

– No limitation of legal metrology aspects


Summary

• Define requirements & specification for meter & network

infrastructure

• Choose manufactures with

‒ production quality & capacity

‒ R&D capabilities

• Develop Meter & network infrastructure

• Intensive and comprehensive tests on

‒ Product (Product Acceptance Tests)

‒ Chain Tests (End to End system tests)

• Use synergies with other utilities/ countries
