Normalised provider profile

Munich-based EFR GmbH provides systems and communication services for grid and energy management. Its portfolio combines software, communication paths and equipment for tariff and load control, feed-in management, public lighting and other measurement and control tasks. It includes longwave broadcast, hybrid solutions and the modular GMS platform. M2M mobile communications and broadband powerline extend the available communication options. Equipment, communications, software operation and customer installations require distinct project responsibilities. Editorial selection questions concern coverage, return channels, failure scenarios, existing control and metering systems, compatibility and operational ownership. Grid-control services are not household electricity tariffs.
