Zug,   Switzerland,   September   18,   2009   –   Landis+Gyr,   in   cooperation   with   SAP
AG   (NYSE:   SAP),   is   offering   energy   utilities   a   new   dimension   in   the   transpa ‐ rency   and   availability   of   energy   data.
The   companies   have   cooperated   on   the   development   of   a   state ‐ of ‐ the ‐ art   meter   data   unification   and   synchronisation
(MDUS)   system,   an   advanced   software   platform   that   integrates   Landis+Gyr’s
Advanced   Metering   Management   (AMM)   head ‐ end   system   with   SAP’s   com ‐ prehensive   business   software   for   utilities.
Integrating   smart   metering   and   enterprise   services   saves   costs,   improves   process   efficiency,   and   brings   utili ‐ ties   one   step   closer   to   an   interoperable   Smart   Grid.
Gridstream   MDUS   from   Landis+Gyr   is   a   gateway   that   performs   two ‐ way   com ‐ munication   and   enables   end ‐ to ‐ end   business   processes   –   from   the   meter   to   business   applications.
Gridstream   MDUS   covers   all   functions   and   interfaces   required   for   meter   validation   and   estimation,   network   management,   billing,   and   customer   relationship   management.
The   advanced   software   is   interoper ‐ able   with   third ‐ party   systems   using   an   IEC   standard ‐ based   interface.
“Liberalisation   and   deregulation   of   energy   markets   has   led   to   new   challenges   being   placed   on   our   customers,   the   utilities,   in   the   areas   of   meter   data   processing,   billing   and   customer   services.
Together   with   SAP,   we   aim   to   sim ‐ plify   utility   business   processes   and   provide   them   with   a   significant   savings   potential,”   says   Andreas   Umbach,   president   and   COO,   Landis+Gyr.
“I   am   cer ‐ tain   that   with   Gridstream   MDUS,   we   can   provide   utilities   with   a   modular   and   interoperable   system   architecture   that   will   support   them   in   improving   their   competitiveness.
In   addition,   we   can   help   bring   utilities   one   step   closer   to   the
Smart   Grid   –   a   smart,   secure,   energy   supply   network.”
Gridstream   MDUS   is   the   first   solution   to   be   produced   as   a   result   of   the   soft ‐ ware   development   cooperation   agreement   between   the   two   market   leaders,   which   was   announced   earlier   this   year.
The   cooperation   between   two   trusted   names   in   their   respective   industries   demonstrates   their   proactive   anticipation   of   the   future   market   requirements   of   utilities.
Landis+Gyr   will   present   Gridstream   MDUS   at   the   International   SAP®   Utilities
Conference   2009   in   Munich,   Germany,   being   held   October   14   –   16,   2009.
The
7th   International   SAP   Utilities   Conference   is   a   showcase   for   the   SAP   for   Utility   solution   portfolio   and   SAP   partners.
