Alcatel-Lucent has joined forces with German internet and communications technology specialist Webolution to set up an energy information network. By integrating a Webolution intelligent gateway, the different interfaces and communications protocols of heating, water, electricity and gas meters can be connected to the internet. This will provide energy utilities with new billing and consumption calculation possibilities. The aim of the alliance is to develop a range of systems for automatic data collection for energy and consumption measurements in Germany. They will also develop a complete portfolio of services covering the multi-utility, smart metering, smart grid, smart home and smart care markets.
