WilSon Energy installs ultrasonic smart water meters

Wilson Energy has installed MID billing standard cold-water meters and electricity meters across four sites of nearly 200 residential properties.

Each site was originally for commercial/retail use but have now been converted into 1 and 2 bedroomed apartments, all in city centre locations, bringing life and footfall back into the high street.

Ultrasonic smart water meter, QALCOSONIC W1, is designed for accurate measurement of cold and hot water consumption in households, apartment buildings, and small commercial premises. It is the first ultrasonic water meter with the integrated Narrow-Band-IoT (NB-IoT) technology in Europe.

Together with the single phase direct connected electricity meters, each meter is linked into a dedicated metering data collection platform with central data concentrator that transmits data with actual meter reads to WilSon Energy’s back office. We are now contracted with the property management company to deliver a third-party billing & bureau service to new residents moving in to their new homes.

Our client saved a substantial amount of money by creating a building network operator designed system as opposed to a district network system and was able to complete the project ahead of schedule and sell the properties faster.
