System Architecture

Energy companies view remote meter reading systems as long-term investments that must provide both cost and business benefits. Today's solutions must be flexible and of sufficient capacity in order to be scalable to future functionalities.

In practice, this means the adoption of a new-generation remote reading system which already provides new functionalities, such as daily collection of hourly values, automatic remote software updating and real-time management of low-voltage network data.

Aidon's remote reading systems, featuring an open architecture, are able to combine different meters and data communication solutions to serve the needs of business information systems. This enables each energy company to build and manage its overall system optimised to each company’s current needs.

The benefits of an open architecture include low life cycle costs, adaptable scalability, independence from meter suppliers and the possibility to use new smart energy meters. In addition, open architecture enables efficient support for customer service and the flexible development of new energy products.
