Municipality of Parga selects Constrat to deploy 7,000 water meters in Greece with Sigfox Hellas to transform water management in Greece. The solution leverages Sigfox 0G technology, a leading Low-Power Wide-Area Network, to provide energy-efficient data collection, and sustainable water metering solutions for the benefit of communities and the environment.

As a domain expert, Constrat’s decision to choose Sigfox 0G technology is a testament to its low-cost and energy-efficient nature, making it the ideal solution for a challenging field installation environment. The water meter utilizes the Honeywell MERLIN 868 HB-G3, a robust module that simultaneously supports Sigfox and WMBus protocols, providing unmatched SLA and Quality of Service. 

Kostas Stratis, CEO of Constrat said, “We are thrilled to provide the Municipality of Parga with smarter and more sustainable IoT solutions. By partnering with Sigfox Hellas, we aim to reshape the smart water metering landscape in Greece by bringing cost-effective metering solutions that can help Greek municipalities address the challenges of water scarcity, non-revenue water, and water leakages.”

As the 0G Network operator of Greece, Sigfox Hellas is fully committed to supporting the project in coverage of the 0G network by deploying base stations in the region of Parga Municipality, to ensure the successful deployment of Sigfox water metering solutions. 

Evangelos Argyris, CEO of Sigfox Hellas added, “We are committed to supporting our partners and customers to deploy massive IoT projects that require high standards of reliability and sustainability, especially for water metering where longevity requirements and rollout budgets are critical. Together with local domain experts like Constrat, and UnaBiz, who have connected millions of meters worldwide on the Sigfox 0G network, we are confident to bring smart metering to scale in Greece.”

Sigfox Hellas is supported by UnaBiz, the owner of Sigfox 0G technology, guaranteeing the longevity of the network and services in Greece in the coming years. 

“Having connected over 2.6 million smart metering sensors worldwide, of which over 50% are for water metering, UnaBiz brings unparalleled expertise to the deployment of massive-scale utility projects on Sigfox 0G technology. UnaBiz is committed to ensuring a high standard of reliability and sustainability, crucial for metering projects, where longevity and budget considerations are critical. Together with Sigfox Hellas and local domain experts like Constrat, we are poised to scale smart metering in Greece,” said Dharmesh Goshalia, Regional Director of UnaBiz for Middle East, Africa, Greece, Turkey, and India.
