Sweden’S Netmore Group Launches Metering-As-A-Service For Water And Gas

Netmore Group, a global IoT network operator, has announced the availability of metering-as-a-service for water and gas utilities.

With this the intent is to offer an alternative to the traditional upfront costed smart meter deployments by eliminating this capex and thereby providing an option for utilities to modernise faster and more affordably.

Bringing extensive experience deploying and leading large-scale AMI projects, Netmore claims itself as a critical player in utility infrastructure modernisation, with the offering providing an option for utilities to redirect their focus from meter-related concerns to sustainability and efficiency issues.

“By blending our deep operational expertise with flexible financing options, we’re able to offer metering-as-a-service solutions that not only come with competitive pricing but also strong, outcome-driven guarantees,” asserts Andreas Stenhager, CCO of the Netmore Group.

“This creates significant value for utilities, enabling them to focus on critical challenges like tackling non-revenue water, while we handle the technology.”

He adds: “Most importantly, our approach makes the full potential of smart metering accessible to a broader range of utilities, especially those unable to make large upfront investments – unlocking a new era of efficiency and sustainability across the sector.”

Netmore’s metering-as-a-service is provided as a fully managed turnkey AMI solution.

Utilities pay a monthly fee per communicating meter, which includes repair and replacement services, for the duration of the metering-as-a-service contract.

Metering-as-a-service is currently available from Netmore in Europe and the US.

Availability outside of these initial regions will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

The new offering comes on the back of a number of new strategy, technology and sales hires to support and grow Netmore’s expansion into global markets.
