Heating Controls via the Smart Meter Gateway: How Two Infrastructures Come Together

The Challenge: Parallel Infrastructure for Electricity and Heat While the smart meter gateway (SMGW) is already being rolled out across the entire electricity sector, the heat supply sector still relies on its own separate communication infrastructure. In district heating, various communication technologies are used for this purpose—mostly narrowband technologies. In practice, this means that for […]
EEBUS for e-mobility: Together with MENNEKES, we celebrated successful interoperability tests at Light + Building.

The eMobility business unit at MENNEKES Elektrotechnik GmbH & Co. KG has successfully completed interoperability testing for EEBUS Limitation of Power Consumption (LPC) with our CLS adapter control. MENNEKES and PPC celebrated this project success at this year’s Light + Building with the presentation of the PPC connect certificate and trophy. This proof of interoperability […]
EEBUS Relais Converter: Bridging the gap between digital control and analog systems

Whether heat pumps, wall boxes, or solar inverters, a large proportion of systems, especially existing ones, can still only be managed using relay contacts. For the cost-effective rollout of management in the smart grid, solutions are therefore needed that can translate digital management commands from the smart metering system into analog switching signals. This is […]
