DONG Energy chooses Kamstrup
After a tough selection process and in close competition with more than 30 international coorporations, Danish energy supplier DONG Energy Eldistribution has just announced that they have chosen Kamstrup as partner for rolling out and operating about 1 million remotely read electricity meters until 2034.
According to CEO Per Asmussen, the large 239 mio. Euros (rounded) order is a clear testament to the fact that Kamstrup has a highly competitive setup – not just in terms of producing high quality meters but also in terms of meter installations as well as the reading and hosting of meter data.
”With the OMNIA SUITE, DONG Energy has chosen a both reliable and secure solution. Moreover, the solution also offers an intelligent design that allows new functionality to be uploaded directly to the meters to ensure that the solution can live up to future demands as well”, says Per Asmussen.
With remote electricity meters and the introduction of hourly reading in Denmark, electricity customers will have their energy consumption measured once an hour going forward. Measurement on an hourly basis is a prerequisite for creating a more flexible electricity market with the possibility of better utilising the renewable energy production.
