In the energy industry, metering service providers operate in a market environment that is both highly specialized and innovation-driven. Several challenges currently demand particular attention:
On the one hand, existing and emerging regulatory requirements are setting the direction and pace for transformation processes, such as the development and rollout of new smart meter technologies. On the other hand, this shift is accompanied by growing pressure to innovate — with traditional metering evolving into value-added services, fueled by IoT-based data analytics. At the same time, private equity and strategic investors are driving structural changes in the market.
In such a dynamic, forward-looking competitive environment, “smart” metering systems and services are both a control lever and a critical success factor for the central processes of the energy transition. Consequently, metering service providers must redefine their value proposition: rather than delivering stand-alone technology solutions, they must evolve into end-to-end providers of energy management, offering integrated and scalable solutions.
