Smart Meter Rollout – Status Quo in Germany and What Works Better in Neighbouring European Countries

Free Webinar

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 | 11:00am–12:15pm CEST | Webinar Language: Germany

Germany is lagging behind in the smart meter rollout - no flexibility in the electricity system without digitalisation, no energy transition without flexibility. Germany's special approach to smart metering systems and control boxes is expensive, complicated and slow. European neighbouring countries, on the other hand, have taken other paths and were more successful with them.

Together with experts from the regulatory and practical fields, the Association of Energy Market Innovator shows the status quo in Germany compared to other European countries when it comes to the smart meter rollout and what is already possible with smart metering systems in other European countries.

During the webinar participants can submit their questions to get them answered by the experts in the live Q&A. In addition, both the recording and the speakers' presentations will be made available on our digital content platform The smarter E Digital after the webinar.

Our European energy system is undergoing a major transformation, moving towards decentralization with increased penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to the grid, such as PV solar, battery storage, and EVs. While DERs provide clear benefits such as limiting costs, reducing CO2 emissions, and helping to empower consumers, there are still challenges to overcome to develop DERs to their full potential. This session will focus on best practices and innovative projects, both from a grid and user perspective (e.g. energy communities) and we will discuss how the regulatory framework can be improved to facilitate the penetration of DERs and active participation from consumers.
