Singtel and EDMI develop IoT-driven smart meters

Electricity suppliers will be able to monitor electricity consumption more accurately.

Singtel and smart metering solutions provider EDMI Limited are collaborating to develop a smart electric metering infrastructure for Singapore.

According to a press release, The partners have successfully tested smart electric meters, powered by seamless connectivity on Singtel’s nationwide Cat-M1 cellular Internet of Things (IoT) network.

Combining smart meters with the IoT network enables secure wireless transmission of real-time meter readings at regular intervals to the power grid.

Singtel said this will allow electricity suppliers to monitor electricity consumption and project demand.

Singtel’s Cat-M1 IoT network went live in September 2017. It has been conducting trials with over 20 potential partners at an IoT innovation lab that was set up with Ericsson earlier in the year.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
