The Nokia 8617 Smart Metering Management (SMM), a utility-provider software application for real-time monitoring of meters in an IP environment, overcomes the meter data-management challenges from introducing smart-metering technology. Offering real-time applications, it supports services and processes, such as load and outage management, and services to consumers, such as consumption statistics and flexible payment schemes.
By leveraging our extensive experience and leadership with real-time, highly available solutions in all-IP environments, the 8617 SMM can quickly launch profitable and reliable smart-metering services. While reducing the commercial and technical risks associated with new services, it complies with environment-regulato
ry objectives for reducing energy consumption and carbon-dioxide emissions. It introduce consumer value-added services, such as unique payment schemes, to stay competitive and quickly increase your revenue, while using real-time consumption statistics to manage demand response and balance the supply.
BENEFITS
Increases revenue and market share by delivering competitive value-added services and offering many payment options, including prepaid, controlled postpaid, account reload, bonuses and promotions
Scales to millions of meters using a meter-agnostic approach that integrates with numerous vendors' meters and meter types for a meter-vendor-indepen
dent solution
Automates load and outage management through network-wide automated meter reading, reducing operating expenditures (OPEX), offering distribution-network balance and increasing outage and fraud control
Fine tunes consumer tariffs to flatten consumption peaks and balance demand and response
FEATURES
Network-wide meter data collection, including automated meter readings, overload-control mechanism, remote meter management and handling of meter outages and tampering
Analysis tools for meter-group statistics, outage and tamper notifications and consumption statistics on per-meter, per-meter-group and per-location basis
Real-time flexible converged rating engine (CRE) for offering incentive tariff plans to manage consumption peaks with day and time as rating criteria
User-friendly consumer Web interface using proven, robust and scalable payment platform widely deployed in real-time telecommunications networks
Data processing for validating, editing and estimating meter consumption values
