Teppo Hemiä, CEO of Wirepas, finds the collaboration a perfect match: "Smart metering requires the highest level of reliability, scalability and optimization of life time costs - all these elements have been key drivers in our Pino development. We are happy and committed to work with Aidon to make the Internet of Things a reality."

Aidon is a recognized technology vision leader with years of RF based metering experience and the leading supplier of smart metering systems in the Nordic countries. The Wirepas Pino mesh network solution combined with Aidon's uncompromised application knowhow makes Aidon's meters a highly desirable choice for energy companies. Aidon has already won significant customers with the collaboration. The effect of the co-operation is staggering: More than 150,000 new meters will be measuring more reliably and cost-effectively than ever before, and this is only the start.

Timo Chrons, CEO of Aidon: "Wirepas and Aidon share the same vision: Uncompromised performance and the total cost of ownership are highly significant when creating an Advanced Metering Infrastructure solution. Both companies work hard to make the solution even better, way above the current market requirements. Future-proof technology means our customers, energy companies and service providers, can concentrate on developing their own businesses."

For those looking for a closer inspection of Pino, Wirepas will be one of the exhibitors at the European Utility Week in Amsterdam in November.
