“We chose Semtech’s LoRa Technology for its open ecosystem and
the flexibility it provides for IoT applications,” said Jan
Skabrada, IoT Partnership Manager for CRA. “There is a strong push
in the country to replace manual utility metering with an
Internet-based, Cloud-enabled solution.”
ABI Research estimates that nearly 20% of utility meters
worldwide will be connected using low power wide area networks
(LPWANs) by 2026. Currently, CRA has 8,000 active metering devices
deployed across the country and plans to increase this number to
20,000 by the end of 2019. With the number of smart meters
increasing in the country, energy consumption has dropped by as
much as 30%.
“CRA provides Czech cities with flexible and reliable
smart-utility solutions that maximize efficiency in utility
management,” said Vivek Mohan, Director of IoT in Semtech’s
Wireless and Sensing Products Group. “Leveraging Semtech’s LoRa
Technology, solutions such as these can be put into place to
increase efficiency, reduce costs and help conserve energy.”
