Your energy data need an all-in-one metering system. - Berg

Your energy data need an
all-in-one metering system.
EDW3000 is the integrated solution for the
collection, processing and supply of energy
data and all sub-areas involved. It establishes
the process chain from measuring to billing
from the perspective of the grid operator,
the energy supplier and the measuring
point operator.
Remote reading, mobile meter value
collecting, meter and device management,
plausibility – the EDW3000 is a holistic solution
for generating correct and verifiable billing data
as well as respective management and
distribution of the data.

The volume of commercial transactions is increasing
dramatically, consequently every business must be aligned
and charged with actual supplies and transports. To do
so, absolutely correct and binding accounting values are
essential.
However, billing and administration of energy accounts is
a complex process. It is measured at one point, generated
at another point and the transactions are arranged at a
third point. One market partner is responsible for billing
the customers, another is in charge of balancing. The
market parties must possess the same binding metering
data which were uniformly generated in the first instance
by the EDW3000, this ensures that the sum of the single
calculations agree to form a total picture.
Measuring data are produced by calibrated metering devices,
however in practice the values are not always error free. Error
can occur if the values are written manually, voltage interruption,
breakdown of communication or simply a defect meter are the
daily occurrences to trigger errors. Even when gaps and errors
occur in the collection, data must be complete for billing.
EDW3000 is the ideal tool, it provides same rules for the metering
customers which enables the grid operator to validate the
metering data and to correct them if required. Preliminary data
and subsequent correction are included in its range.
Universal validation rules such as the Dutch Metering Code in
The Netherlands can be automatically started in the system. The
communication takes place in standard format such as EDIFACT,
ebIX, or LPEx.
Errors can occur, they can be caused by meters,
reading systems, or people. The EDW3000 is
used in utilities where subsequent systems
and trading partners need a reliable data base.
Because highly complex calibrated measuring
devices provide precise and traceable
metering results on site, the data collection
system EDW3000 must exercise great care
when handling the data. It can automatically
start readings and repeat them if required.
Possible corrections that need to be made are
retraceable at any time. An uncompromising
definition of „real values“ and individual
inspection rules for diverse markets and
regulations guarantees an accounting-specific
handling of the metering data from its retrieval
up to its transmission to the billing system.
EDW3000 is the all in one tool
for modern grid operators or
meter readers. It eliminates
futile overheads and costly
administration. Every type
of energy meter can be
managed, read and controlled
quickly, easily and precisely.
The system is based on the
most used AMR system in
Europe - the ENZ2000 and
integrates the manual data
collection with handheld
devices. This applies to all
types of energy: current, gas,
water, and heat.
EDW3000 processes the collected
energy and metering data subject
to the regulations of the individual
European countries using the latest EDM
functions. The intelligent integration of
data collection and plausibility enables
the automatic subsequent reading of
gaps, the detection and correction of
reading errors and the substitution of
data with a quality and precision that
surpasses everything to date. The system
maps the process step in which billing
values relevant to the energy market
and the trading partners are generated.
Optimised interfaces to SAP ® as well as
the customary market interfaces simplify
the integration of the EDW3000 in any
existing IT environment.

EDW3000 executes the tasks for
a qualified collection of energy
data and asset management of
the field levels for the utility. It is
implemented in the network or at
the measuring point operator and
supplies the ensuing processes
and market partners with authentic
measuring results, they are created
from the raw data of the meter
reading according to the ‘true value
principles’.
EDW3000 supports all types of
energy, electricity, gas, water, heat;
its scope includes every customer
group, such as special contract
customers, tariff customers and
also transmitted measurings/
distributors.
EDW3000 is the consistent further development of
Europe‘s best-selling energy data collection solution.
It is set in the Windows ® operating system just like its
predecessor ENZ2000 and is future-proof with Microsoft
.NET technology. The server and clients can be operated
using standard Microsoft operating systems Windows
Server ® 2008 (32- und 64-bit) and Windows ® 7 (32- und
64-bit). It also supports the Microsoft SQL Server ® 2008
and Oracle ® 11g as data base.
All standard browsers and platforms enable access to the
browser-based EDW.webdata. Current transmission media
such as PSTN, GSM and GPRS, ISDN, Powerline and direct
Ethernet ® connections as well as internet with mail (SMTP)
and FTP services can be used for remote reading of metering
data. For mobile data collection, handheld terminals with
Microsoft Pocket PC (Windows ® CE) operating system can
be used.
