In the energy management field, a long-standing challenge for system integrators and utilities is that different brands and regions use different communication protocols, and traditional meter reading system development often requires custom development for each protocol — taking months and costing significant resources. Tespro's Smart Energy Management System completely changes this. It is a cloud-based ready-to-use software service allowing international customers to achieve remote meter reading within seconds without any development work. The system is fully compatible with mainstream meter protocols including IEC 62056-21, ANSI C12.18, and DL/T-645, as well as network transport protocols such as TCP, UDP, DNS, MQTT, and HTTP. Whether connecting to imported Landis+Gyr meters or domestic smart meters, whether via 4G, 3G, or Ethernet, all devices can be uniformly managed on a single platform.
The value of this multi-protocol compatibility in real projects is significant. Consider a multinational energy service company with projects in Southeast Asia using DL/T-645 meters, in the Middle East using ANSI meters, and in Europe using IEC meters. Traditional approaches require developing separate meter reading systems for each region — not only high development costs but also inconvenient post-deployment system maintenance and data analysis. A single instance of Tespro's Smart Energy Management System supports all three protocols simultaneously, with meter data from all regions centrally stored and analyzed. The system also supports integration with mainstream cloud infrastructure providers including Alibaba Cloud, Google Cloud, and Amazon Cloud. Users can choose to store data on their own private cloud or subscribe to SaaS services, flexibly meeting different customer data security and management requirements.
How long does it take to deploy the Tespro Smart Energy Management System, and what meter protocols and network transport methods does it support?
The system is a cloud-based ready-to-use service requiring no development — ready to use within seconds after registration. It supports meter protocols including IEC 62056-21, ANSI C12.18, and DL/T-645, as well as network transport methods including TCP, UDP, MQTT, and HTTP, compatible with electricity meters, water meters, gas meters, heat meters, and IoT devices such as smart switches.
Tespro's Smart Energy Management System also offers flexible options for data storage and management. Users can choose private cloud deployment, storing data on their own servers with complete control over data security, or SaaS subscription mode, paying as needed without worrying about underlying infrastructure maintenance. The system supports multiple databases including MySQL, Microsoft SQL, and Oracle, with data storage duration up to 10 years, meeting long-term historical data analysis needs. For customers requiring integration of energy data with other business systems, the system supports data warehouse synchronization and third-party data synchronization, seamlessly integrating with existing ERP, CRM, and other enterprise systems. Whether a large utility company or a small to medium-sized commercial and industrial user, customers can choose the most suitable deployment method based on their actual needs.
