Revolutionize smart meter connectivity with eSIM and iSIM Technology

Whether you are optimizing logistics or launching connectivity-as-a-service, eSIM technology is the digital backbone of metering. However, smart meter manufacturers, Distribution System Operators (DSO) and utilities face a complex landscape when connecting their devices, contending with regional regulations, carrier changes, battery constraints, and security mandates.

With a single SKU and secure remote provisioning capabilities, well-implemented eSIM services can transform operational complexity into scalable opportunity.

1. Streamlined manufacturing
   To streamline production device manufacturers can use eSIM technology with a single SKU and post-deployment carrier profile activation. The result? Simplified logistics, reduced regional variations, and lower costs.
2. Remote connectivity
   Utility providers can remotely switch connectivity with eSIM without needing physical access to meters, ensuring continuity amid network sunsets and phase-outs.
3. Secure, utility-controlled provisioning
   Designed for critical environments, eSIM platforms enable secure profile provisioning through DSO-controlled backends—data remains within a private, trusted environment.
4. Battery optimization
   For battery-powered water and gas meters, eSIM offers energy-efficient provisioning options to minimize communication overhead and extend device battery life.
5. Future-proof security
   The eSIM can be used as a centralized, upgradeable security anchor within the device—supporting evolving standards like post-quantum cryptography. This ensures long-term regulatory compliance and future-ready security.
