Xemex’s Customers are 1, the meter manufacturers, 2, service providers and 3, DNB’s. Xemex develops telemetry communication modules, named WatchTalk or CreditTalk (for prepaid applications), connected to electricity, gas, water, temperature, or any other kind of meter.

The modules gather readings any given time-slice store them and perform, daily or customizable, data transfer over GSM/GPRS or Ethernet. These data are made available to backend application servers, like e.g. Xemex’s own WatchTalk application. In fact data can be used by any database or application software, belonging to e.g. network management companies, retailers, integrators or Application Service Providers, for management, billing, and marketing purposes.

Xemex has an installed base of over 240.000 modules in the Dutch, German, Belgian and French market.
Multiutility and Prepayment are no brainers for Xemex.

MECOMSTM is the reference end-to-end solution for utilities that empowers companies to optimize their business in both regulated and de-regulated market environments. It allows companies to streamline and manage processes such as financial management, metering, contract management, CRM, billing and cash collection, asset management and field services, and portfolio management. MECOMSTM is certified for Microsoft Dynamics AX and is highly scalable and modular, providing the flexibility to quickly adapt to changing market conditions.

With MECOMSTM utilities can deploy a future proof solution that meets new challenges that arise in the area of Meter Data Management or Customer Care & Billing. MECOMSTM Smart Metering Communication Bus (SMCB) has been designed to meet another major challenge for utilities: the search for the most efficient management of their smart metering assets and the complex communication with them in a multi brand, multi protocol and multi user environment. Although the communication handling has to be done in co-ordination with other processes, they need to be kept separated: adding a new protocol should not directly influence the billing cycle of customers.

MECOMSTM Smart Metering Communication Bus tackles both aspects. It guarantees a comprehensive management of the metering assets, while at the same time offering the flexibility to link several different proprietary protocols to each other and the central system. In addition, MECOMSTM Smart Metering Communication Bus supports ‘push’ as well as ‘pull’ AMI architectures. 

Remote Energy Monitoring is at the forefront of Energy Information Intelligence. We are a smart metering and data management company which designs, develops and deploys complete end-to-end smart metering solutions.
