Products for Energy Infrastructures
A smart and sustainable plan for saving energy.We believe that smart device networks that save energy transparently — without affecting our daily lives — are the best way to manage and control energy use. These networks can intelligently respond to conditions on the grid such as peak-energy demand, and implement operation strategies quickly and easily. Smart device networks are not just a vision, however: They’re reality. They’re at work in the streetlights of Oslo, Norway; in homes in Italy; and in buildings all over the world. And they’re made possible through Echelon's off-the-shelf LonWorks® based products and the thousands of products built on our technology. Our smart device networks form the energy-aware infrastructure that helps increase comfort, safety, and efficiency around the world. Echelon is the only company in the world that's closely involved in smart energy solutions across a wide range of markets. Our two main product lines — the NES System for advanced metering infrastructure and the LonWorks infrastructure products for control networking — are the cornerstone of successful energy management solutions in utilities, municipalities, and buildings and homes.

Echelon takes smart metering beyond the meter, connecting it to energy-aware products and networks inside buildings, homes, and cities. This smart grid — an energy-aware infrastructure for utilities — is centered on the residential metering system. Our NES Smart Metering System is more than just meters, however. It’s a collection of services that can be expanded to offer additional services in the future. Services such as in-home energy control, water or gas metering, or even local monitoring of streetlights. This approach makes the NES System the backbone for an energy infrastructure that supports the needs of utilities today and tomorrow. It’s a future-proof investment, as well as an intelligent choice for taxpayers’ money. Echelon’s NES System is the world's leading advanced metering infrastructure solution. Over 27 million homes use the technology behind our system, and millions more are slated to receive NES meters. Utilities throughout Europe, North America, and Australia are adopting the NES System for their smart grid initiatives. Echelon’s Internet server, the i.LON SmartServer, is the key product that connects smart devices to the smart grid, letting you extend energy-aware infrastructures into buildings and factories. The i.LON SmartServer can connect to any device or legacy system, whether it’s LonWorks based or not. Add it to any device that supports analog or simple digital I/O, and the i.LON SmartServer quickly becomes the central component in any energy strategy.
The i.LON SmartServer can:
By using the i.LON SmartServer to apply energy management strategies to networked LonWorks based devices, you can extend energy-aware infrastructures to buildings, homes, and factories, and dramatically reduce energy use.
