Smart Meter IoT Phase 2 Innovation Project Awarded to Hildebrand and Octopus Energy
Awarded 19 Jul 2023
About
BEIS awarded a contract to Hildebrand Technology Limited and Octopus Energy Limited for Phase 2 of the Smart Metering Internet of Things System (SMIOTS) project, valued at AUD 1,389,494.4.
The project demonstrates smart sensing of temperature and humidity within properties using secure smart meter data accessible through the Data Communication Company's existing smart metering communications network.
It aims to innovate smart meter functionality to support Great Britain's transition to net zero while ensuring data protection.
Phase 2 involves securing Certified Product Assurance (CPA) security certification for the Octopus Home product, adding new environment sensors, and connecting a Home Area Network Connected Auxiliary Load Control Switch (HCALCS) or Standalone Auxiliary Proportional Controller (SAPC) to the smart metering system via the Octopus Home product.
With explicit consumer consent, sensor data will be transmitted via the smart meter network instead of relying on home networking and device-specific private cloud services.
The project is led by Hildebrand working with the University of Salford, the DCC, and Utilita for in-home trials, while Octopus Energy collaborates with Rufilla, NCC Group, Silicon Labs, and SmartDCC.
