Netmore begins LoRaWAN rollout in France - Seite 2

Smart metering of water drives the French IoT market

Smart metering of water is a rapidly growing market in France. The need for improved digitization to achieve resource efficiency is increasing, which was not least proven during periods of severe drought that hit the country the recent years.

With LoRaWAN-based solutions from the Netmore ecosystem, a municipality, a municipal company, water meter manufacturers and similar companies can increase measurability and gain enhanced control and improved insights into the water resource. The solutions create the conditions for improved resource efficiency that will benefit both municipalities and citizens, while society as a whole can handle the water issue more responsibly and contribute to a more sustainable and eco-friendly development. Similar to solutions in water, such as sub metering, leakage control and man hole monitoring, corresponding solutions are also offered for gas, district heating and electricity.

Collaborations with platform developers and device manufacturers

Netmore builds a cost-effective network that puts partners, customers and end users at the center. Network rollout takes place in close collaboration with strategically selected partners, such as platform providers, solution developers, unit developers and real estate companies.

This agile approach and our strong partner networks are a vital part of the recipe for success that has resulted in that our solutions are used by major players in an increasing number of geographic markets. This has contributed to Netmore LoRaWAN now being the fastest growing professional LoRaWAN network in Europe.

"It is through strong collaborations that conditions are created for long-term projects that benefit the entire society in the transition to a more sustainable way of life.

"We welcome and look forward to initiating more strategic collaborations with French companies, to the benefit of communities and citizens," says Arnaud Delprat, Managing Director France, Netmore.

Netmore LoRaWAN expanding across Europe

Netmore has initiated a major expansion of LoRaWAN in Europe during 2022. It now offers LoRaWAN in Sweden, the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Spain and France. In addition, there are roaming agreements that also provide coverage in Finland and Switzerland.

The network expansion, combined with Netmore's European `coverage guarantee' and `coverage on demand' enables the deployment of nationwide IoT projects within each country. Furthermore, Netmore, and its main owner and infrastructure investor Polar Structure are also opening doors for large-scale societally beneficial IoT spanning several countries in Europe.
