smart.control is an intelligent comprehensive system to observe and control the energy consumption in households and in the industry. The energy provider as well as all connected customers can monitor their energy consumption. Additionally, the production of photo-voltaic systems is shown in real time. 

The smart.control system is based on a very cost-efficient gateway that is installed in the neighbourhood of the meter point and transmits the data using GPRS, WIFI or LAN. The gateway works without configuration and can be installed in minutes. It opens a secure connection to the smart.control server and sends the measured values in a given frequency (i.e. every 15 minutes). The smart.control server receives, processes and displays the values.

Smart.control also allows to control devices of a household, i.e. boilers or heat pumps. This is an interesting feature for energy providers that enables them to finegrain use their surplus energy.
