Siemens to provide software solution for smart meter rollout in Lithuania
Company to provide EnergyIP meter data management system for 1.2 million smart meters
10-year contract includes service and maintenance
Software to help reduce electricity consumption by up to 6 percent, power loss by more than 10 percent
Siemens Smart
Infrastructure and its partners, Sagemcom and Bitė Lietuva, are participating
in the rollout of 1.2 million smart meters across Lithuania. Siemens will
provide Lithuanian distribution system operator ESO with the EnergyIP meter
data management system as well as service and maintenance for 10 years.
Sagemcom is supplying the 1.2 million smart meters and the Siconia head-end
system, which reads the data generated by the meters. Bitė Lietuva, a telecommunications
provider in Lithuania, is the partner for communication technology. The new
smart meter infrastructure enables ESO to reduce electricity consumption by up
to 6 percent, cut power losses in the overall supply network by over 10
percent, and lead to higher energy efficiency in the overall operations.

Siemens to support Lithuanian distribution grid operator ESO with smart meter rollout.
“To master the increasing complexity of power grids, digitalization is key.
Smart meters are one important source of data. We are very proud that ESO has
chosen Siemens and its partners to provide smart meter management
infrastructure to Lithuania. This will enable our customer to understand their
data better, forecast and operate the power grid efficiently, and even reduce
electricity consumption and power losses significantly,” said Sabine
Erlinghagen, CEO of Digital Grid at Siemens Smart Infrastructure.
EnergyIP meter data management as a standard
system will be supplemented with several security features in order to meet the
strict security requirements, including end-to-end encryption.
As a result, new challenges arising from the large-scale expansion of photovoltaic systems, battery storage systems, charging infrastructure for electromobility, and other grid participants can be solved in a targeted manner. This lays the foundation for future-ready grid operation.
For Siemens, the contract in Lithuania also includes the integration of the provided solution with ESO legacy
systems, such as billing information system, ESO’s customer portal and
Enterprise Asset Management system.
