Metering device wins award

Friday, 25 February, 2011

EDMI and Sierra Wireless have been awarded the GSMA Global Mobile Award for Best Mobile Innovation for Utilities at the 2011 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

The award recognises EDMI's EWM100 modem for smart metering applications, which uses Sierra Wireless AirPrime embedded modules to provide robust cellular communications.

The EWM100 is an industrial-grade, machine-to-machine communications solution designed specifically for smart metering.

It provides GSM/GPRS connectivity between a utility's operations centre and individual power meters in the field.

With secure, real-time communications, utilities can manage grids more efficiently, remotely control services and support in-home energy management applications that empower users to change their consumption behaviour and lower their costs.
