Further development of metering point operation 2017
Project duration: 1 year
Brief description
Further development of the system integration of a meter data management (MDM) system from the company Görlitz (IDSpecto) to map the business processes required for metering point operation for the relevant department of an energy trader (in 2017).
Supplement
IDSpecto is a standard software for the integrated recording and evaluation of meter data with a high level of process automation. The underlying business processes (remote meter reading, plausibility checking, automated transfer to commonly available data exchange formats) are mapped and device management is enabled. IDSpecto has a modular structure. The core module IDSpecto.engine is used for the DB management of master and transaction data. IDSpecto is based on an MS .NET server platform with an Oracle or MS SQL Server DB (in the MS SQL Server DB project). To optimize the integration of the MDM system in the customer's system landscape, the implemented interfaces and the master data maintenance application, among other things, are subject to continuous further development. Highlights of 2017 include the conceptual design phase for implementing the law on digitalization of the energy revolution (BMWi) and the concrete implementation of what is known as the interim model .
Subject description
The standardization of business processes and contracts in line with the requirements of the Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) is intended to enable rapid and efficient cooperation between market participants when it comes to operating metering points and processing the relevant measuring information. The enactment has been effective for the market participants since October 1, 2011. Initially the customer adopted metering point operation for those of its consumers already supplied with energy (power/Germany) and now performs the measurement service without supplying energy. The customer assumes both roles, MPO and MSP, in the market and the associated market communications. The law on digitalization of the energy revolution (Gesetz zur Digitalisierung der Energiewende) from August 29, 2016, has a major impact on this business segment.
