Customer Challenge
EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG, one of the top 3 utilities in Germany, is working on a new IT architecture for their metering business and a platform for the future. The company needed to establish a new and future-orientated IT solution for the German market role of the meter operator. Within the project and architecture Greenbird’s Utilihive digital integration hub has been chosen to provide the digital integration platform.

Utilihive Solution
EnBW selected Utilihive for the integration of metering specific services within their event-driven and loosely coupled IT architecture. Its modern, cloud-native SaaS technology enables EnBW to apply state-of-the-art technology and increase project speed and scalability. Utilihive will provide the integration of meter specific services in a new, multi-layered IT architecture which will push EnBW’s metering business. This includes several systems of records, such as Meter Data Management and device management.

Benefits with Utilihive
Greenbird and EnBW are working in close partnership in an agile project model. The initial pilot which aimed to prove the architectural concept and capabilities of Utilihive, was completed in a rapid eight weeks. The in-built flexibility of the Utilihive platform gives EnBW the flexibility, speed and scalability that is needed in the fast-changing digitalization of the market.
