Why we do it

We believe that it is important for us all to do what we can for the environment and that we all want to contribute by using energy as efficiently as possible. The problem is that we do not usually know how we could or should save energy, nor where to start from. It is important that we make the best actions for our situation when trying be energy efficient, unfortunately, without having the information we need this might not be possible.

The goal with smart meters is to raise the awareness about the cost of power and to encourage consumers to be more energy efficient. The smart meters are needed as a first step to provide consumers access to right and relevant information, enabling actions with best possible short and long term effects.

How we do it

The requirements for smart meters are changing, from one meter reading a month to readings every 15 minutes (moving down to ”almost real time”). As more frequent data is generated by the smart meters, security and privacy aspects become more and more important.

Managing smart metering data introduces challenging new demands, not only in the infrastructure needed in storing but also in how we approach and handle the data. The new challenges do not only include what data to store where to it (so called Big Data) but also how to curate, search, share, analyze and visualize the data.

Internet of Things and Big Data may be buzz words of today, but for Comsel, The Internet of Things is at the core of what we have been doing since 1997, be it called Remote Data Acquisition and Control, Telematics or Machine to Machine.
