      Costs at building level
    
    These are rough estimates. An offer must be requested for exact cost information.
The following use case was assumed for the cost estimate:
1 Multi-party residential building with the following components (excluding commercial):
- Measuring units: 20 electricity meters, 20 heat meters, 20 water meters (hot & cold)
 - 1 photovoltaic system (with 1 inverter)
 - 1 heat pump (SG-Ready)
 - 1 hot water boiler
 - 20 parking spaces, 5 of which are fully equipped with charging stations
 
- 
            
Of these, the following functions can be fulfilled:
Measure electricity meterMeasure heat meterMeasure water meterIntegration PV systemData delivery consumption charging stations for billing (without collection) -
