There is a better way to deploy AMI-1

Smart metering projects are complex, slow, and capital-intensive

Deploying AMI at scale often means:

  • High upfront CAPEX and financial risk
  • Complex multi-vendor coordination
  • Long deployment timelines
  • Operational burden on internal teams

There is a faster, lower-risk way to deploy AMI

Zero operational burden

We handle infrastructure, operations, and maintenance — so your teams don’t have to.

Fast, end-to-end deployment

From design to rollout, we deliver your AMI project faster and with full accountability.

SLA-backed performance

Guaranteed delivery aligned with your operational and regulatory targets.

From CAPEX burden to immediate value

Compare traditional AMI deployment vs Metering-as-a-Service and stop investing millions upfront. Start generating value immediately.

CAPEX

Traditional approach used by most utilities for AMI deployment

Traditional CAPEX Model

  • €6M+ upfront investment required
  • Utility manages deployment, vendors, and maintenance
  • High financial risk
  • High operational complexity
  • Positive cash flow only after 7–8 years

Metering-as-a-Service

A modern, fully managed model designed to remove CAPEX and accelerate deployment

MaaS with Netmore

  • No upfront investment
  • Fully managed AMI (network + devices + operations)
  • Single partner, reduced complexity

Frequently asked questions about Metering-as-a-Service

What is Metering-as-a-Service (MaaS)?

Metering-as-a-Service is a fully managed model that enables utilities to deploy smart metering infrastructure without upfront investment. Netmore handles network, devices, deployment, and operations — you pay a predictable monthly fee per meter.

What operational benefits can I expect from MaaS?

By outsourcing infrastructure, deployment, and maintenance, MaaS reduces operational complexity and internal workload. Utilities can focus on core operations while improving efficiency and lowering operational costs.

How does MaaS help reduce water leakage?

Smart metering enables real-time data collection and advanced analytics, allowing utilities to detect leaks earlier, reduce non-revenue water, and improve operational efficiency.

How is MaaS different from a traditional AMI deployment?

Traditional AMI projects require significant upfront CAPEX, complex vendor coordination, and long deployment timelines. MaaS replaces this with a subscription-based model, reducing financial risk and enabling faster, fully managed deployment.

Do I need to invest upfront to start a MaaS project?

No. MaaS eliminates upfront investment. You only pay a monthly fee based on the number of active meters, allowing immediate positive cash flow.

How long does it take to deploy a MaaS solution?

Deployment timelines depend on project scope, but MaaS significantly accelerates rollout compared to traditional models. Pilot projects can be launched quickly, followed by scalable deployment.

Can MaaS integrate with my existing systems?

Yes. Netmore provides seamless integration with existing Head-End Systems and MDMS through secure APIs, ensuring compatibility with your current infrastructure.

Who manages the infrastructure and operations?

Netmore and its partners manage the full lifecycle: network infrastructure, device deployment, maintenance, and operations. Your teams can focus on core priorities.

Is MaaS suitable for large-scale deployments?

Yes. MaaS is designed for scalability, from pilot projects to nationwide rollouts, with proven deployments across utilities in Europe.

Can I start with a pilot before committing?

Yes. Most MaaS projects begin with a pilot phase to validate performance, system configuration, and business case before full-scale deployment.
