Berlin, Germany – [17.Juni.2024] metr, a leading provider of data-driven solutions for the real estate industry, and Smartvatten, a pioneer in digital water management, are pleased to announce their strategic partnership. This collaboration aims to accelerate the reduction of global CO2 emissions, improve energy and water efficiency, and provide comprehensive solutions for sustainable building management.
Shaping the Future of Building Management Together
metr is dedicated to transforming the real estate sector to accelerate the reduction of global CO2 emissions and make buildings more energy-efficient and sustainable. By leveraging data-driven solutions and integrating them on a platform for energy-efficient buildings, metr provides transparent, data-driven insights into energy consumption, costs, and processes for the real estate sector. Through smart metering solutions, metr enables building managers to visualize consumption data daily, ensuring compliance with the EU Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which mandates the documentation of consumption and CO2 emissions starting in 2024.
Holistic Smart Metering Concept Even Easier to Implement
Until now, collecting measurement data from water meters has presented metr with the challenge that the installed meters were often analogue. Previously, these had to be replaced with digital ones so that they could be read. The partnership with Smartvatten now enables even faster and simpler implementation of an integrated smart metering concept. The integration of Smartvatten technology ensures prompt and accurate data collection from both digital and analogue meters. Smartvatten also assumes the operator obligations for water meters. This partnership enables metr to offer a holistic smart metering solution, including leak detection and prevention, at no additional cost to customers.
A Perfect Match for More Sustainability
"More and more customers in the housing industry want to manage their buildings more efficiently in terms of energy and water consumption", said Yannick Bollhorst, Director of Partnerships at metr. "Our partnership with Smartvatten offers our customers throughout Germany a comprehensive range of services, from data transparency on all energy consumption in the building and its optimisation to leakage prevention with automatic warnings in the event of irregular water consumption."
Alex Forcella, Partner Manager at Smartvatten, added: "For Smartvatten, the cooperation with metr is an important step into the German market. Together, we can offer customers a complete solution and raise awareness for water savings."
Benefits for Smartvatten and metr Customers
Customers can now easily collect and analyse their water data in real time with Smartvatten's non-invasive solution and use it immediately in the metr platform.
With metr as a competitive metering point operator, transparent insights into all consumption media in the buildings can now be obtained on demand.
In addition to smart metering, customers can take advantage of the synergy effects of the metr platform and, for example, also implement remote monitoring and automatic optimisation of their heating systems without additional hardware. The metr platform also supports a large number of smart solutions from third-party providers, which can further improve technical building management.
Big Plans for the Future
With Smartvatten as a partner, metr aims to offer future-proof solutions that protect building infrastructure and promote sustainable practices. Customers will be able to reduce energy consumption, lower operating costs, and protect their properties from water damage while meeting stringent ESG reporting standards.
