What is the Internet of Things?
In a nutshell, the Internet of Things (IoT) is the concept of connecting any device to the Internet and to other connected devices.
Low Power Wide Area Networks
A single Gateway can cover an area of hundreds of square kilometers and connect thousands of devices.
Connected Devices
Our IoT Devices provide the UK 's Leading Metering & Monitoring Solution, enabling you to monitor your meters, buildings and cities automatically.
Live Data & Remote Control
IoT integrates data from our range of different devices, applies analytics and shares live information for remote control.
Our History with IoT
We have been working with IoT technologies for over 20 years.
IoT makes a device ‘smart’ by making it capable of collecting and analysing data.
We use IoT to monitor, control and optimise your cities, buildings and utilities.
1999
Invention of the term IoT by British engineer, Kevin Ashton to describe a system whereby physical objects are connected to the internet.
2014
IoT becomes mainstream with the announcement of the purchase of Nest by Google. That same year, the Las Vegas CES was held under the theme of IoT.
2021
Meter are the UK’s leading IoT Metering & Monitoring Solution. We gather millions of data points every day to help cities and companies lower their energy bills, cut carbon emissions and improve their services.
We Make IoT Happen
We connect our leading IoT Sensors to our secure wireless networks and gather millions of data points every day
to help cities, companies and individuals to lower their energy bills, cut carbon emissions and improve their services.
Low Power
Wide Area Network
LPWAN is designed for sensors and applications that need to send small amounts of data over long distances multiple times per hour from varying environments.

End Point Devices
Device lifetime is important when investing in IoT technology. Our devices communicate via LPWAN protocols, with IP68 concealed battery which provide a 10 year battery life.

Depending on the location of the device and the information to be transmitted, the choice of the appropriate network is crucial.
Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) provides a longe range, low powered network and cost-effective IoT solution.
What are the right criteria for choosing an IoT network ?
One technology cannot serve all applications and volumes. WiFi and Bluetooth are widely adopted to serve personal devices at short range.
Cellular technology is a great fit for applications that need high data throughput but are expensive to operate.
LPWAN offers multi-year battery lifetime and is designed for sensors and applications that need to send small amounts of data over long distances a few times per hour from varying environments.
Several criteria must be taken into account to choose the right network.
LPWAN’S Positioning
We work with the best LPWAN Technology
Our Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) Solution
We provide the most reliable LPWAN connection from any UK Metering & Monitoring Technology Provider.
Repeaters can be added to extend the range and ensure we never fail to connect to the centralised Gateway.
No matter where your meter is located, we guarantee to deliver a strong and reliable solution. If we cannot connect, you will not be charged!

Six reasons why we provide the leading
IoT Metering & Monitoring Solution!
Cost Effective Solution
Just one gateway and a single SIM card charge can service thousands of devices, resulting in low connectivity costs.
Security and Confidentiality
Data is end-to-end encrypted and sent through our secure private network.
Long Range
A single gateway can cover an area of hundreds of square kilometres.
Network Capacity
We collect millions of data points daily and provide live access data at the click of a button.
Battery Life
Our end-point devices do not need to be connected to a power source. Our devices have a concealed battery with a 10 year life.
High Quality Service
Our network and end point devices are monitored on a daily basis to ensure a fully maintained and sustained solution. Timely fixes are made where required to ensure continued quality data and servicing.
