AI powered Low Code IoT/IIoT Platform

Provide meter data management for smarter utility infrastructure operations, better customer service, and early detection of issues like leaks or outages. Enhance operational efficiency, support energy and water conservation, and improve safety by minimizing fieldwork. Also enable scalable billing system inter-operations and lower environmental impact by reducing transportation needs.

Iotellect is a low-code IoT/IIoT platform for building custom automatic meter reading and smart metering solutions. It helps utilities and solution providers connect smart meters, data concentrators, communication modules, sensors, and field devices in one platform, then build real-time dashboards, alerts, analytics, and automated workflows for meter data management, leak and outage detection, demand analysis, and utility operations.

Connectivity & Management

  • Provision for self-forming mesh networks where each device acts as a relay point, passing data to other meters until it reaches a central hub
  • Availability of two-way communication, allowing utility providers to send commands to the meter, such as resetting or reprogramming, in addition to receiving data
  • Support for most industrial protocols and standards, including Radio Frequency (RF), Cellular Networks (GSM, 4G, LTE), Power Line Communication (PLC), Wi-Fi and LoRaWAN
  • Logging of historical data for detailed consumption analysis, helping both utilities and customers track trends and diagnose issues
  • Enablement of customers to view their real-time usage through web portals or apps, promoting better energy management and conservation
  • Detection of tampering attempts and immediate alerting of the utility providers, reducing fraud and unauthorized access
  • Feature for utility providers to remotely disconnect or reconnect services (e.g., electricity or gas) for customers, streamlining processes for unpaid bills, maintenance, or emergencies

Integration

  • Low code integration with Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
  • Low code integration with Energy Management Systems (EMS)
  • Low code integration with SCADA systems
  • Low code integration with Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)
  • Low code integration with Outage Management Systems (OMS)
  • Low code integration with Customer Information System (CIS)
  • Low code integration with billing and revenue management systems

Analytics

  • Identification of peak usage periods, seasonal variations, and long-term trends, enabling better resource allocation and demand forecasting
  • Detailed load profiling of individual customers or groups that help design better pricing strategies and demand-response programs
  • Prediction of peak demand periods by analyzing historical usage data and real-time consumption patterns for better grid management and energy supply planning, reducing the risk of outages or overloading
  • Optimization of resource distribution based usage trends, ensuring that supply matches demand more accurately and minimizing wastage
  • Enabling of utility providers to implement time-of-use (TOU) pricing by analyzing when customers consume resources the most
  • Detection of power outages or interruptions in service, providing utilities with real-time alerts to speed up response and restoration times
  • Identification of areas where energy or water is being wasted to implement conservation programs and infrastructure improvements
  • Provision for insights into customer behavior, which can be used to develop targeted energy-saving programs, promotions, or educational initiatives
  • Tracking of customer response to demand-response programs, dynamic pricing, or conservation incentives, helping utilities refine their strategies and increase customer participation
  • Balancing of loads across the grid by analyzing where and when energy is consumed most to avoid overloading certain areas and ensure more efficient energy distribution

UI/UX

  • Availability of real-time or near-real-time visuals of consumption data, system health, and key performance indicators (KPIs), such as total consumption, peak usage, or system efficiency
  • Configuration of widgets to display relevant data, such as energy or water usage, leak detection, tamper alerts, or outage information, based on user needs and roles
  • Support for interactive charts and graphs to allow users to view and analyze energy, water, or gas consumption over different periods (hourly, daily, monthly), making trends easy to spot
  • Visual heat mapping to show consumption levels across different geographic regions, helping utilities identify high-demand areas or system faults
  • Availability of advanced search to quickly find specific customer accounts, meters, or geographic regions based on keywords, meter IDs, or addresses
  • Visual representation of the progress of service restoration or issue resolution, providing real-time updates to both utility staff and customers
  • Provision for customer-facing portals where consumers can log in to view their usage data, billing history, and consumption trends, empowering them to better manage their usage

Common Questions

What is automatic meter reading and how does it work?

Automatic meter reading is a system that collects consumption and status data from utility meters without manual field visits. It uses smart meters, communication networks, and data collection infrastructure to send readings to a central platform for monitoring, billing, and analysis.
