Purchase order for smart metering implementation in Sweden
CyanConnode, the world leader in narrowband radio mesh networks, announces receipt of a purchase order from HM Power for a smart metering implementation for a Swedish utility.
The purchase order, worth US$780,000, is part of a larger order for the supply of an IPv6-based solution based on perpetual software licenses and annual maintenance for an initial period of 10 years. Approximately 50% of the total order value, which will be recognised fully in the current financial year, relates to software licences which have been delivered. Roll out of the meters will commence in Q4 2018 following an initial 1,500-meter pilot in Q3 2018. As such, a large proportion of payment for the units is expected be recognised in the next financial year.
HM Power and CyanConnode have worked together for more than five years and in 2016 signed a license agreement for the distribution of CyanConnode products and services. The Swedish-based system integrator provides smart metering and smart grids solutions to many Swedish utilities supplying electricity meters integrated with CyanConnode's IPv6-based solution.
The majority of smart meters in Sweden were deployed during the first rollout, which ended in 20091. Last week, the Government Office of Sweden announced that the next generation of smart meters is now being introduced and must be in place by 01 January 2025. The new smart electricity meters will provide new functionality, such as hourly measurements, as well as support a user interface that enables customers to measure their consumption2. In total, approximately five million next generation meters will be installed3.
John Cronin, CyanConnode Executive Chairman, commented: "We are pleased to announce this latest order, further demonstrating the growing demand for standards-based solutions. HM Power is part of our global partner eco-system and our collaborative approach demonstrates the suitability of our technology to address evolving market requirements."
