The challenge

For a district heating network of this scale, reliable billing is crucial. Luminus wanted to:

Bill correctly and transparently based on consumption.

Respond flexibly to legislation and tariff structures.

Manage data securely and comply with GDPR.

Increase efficiency by reducing manual processes.

To achieve this, Luminus was looking for a partner with the right mix of technical precision, flexibility and speed.

The solution: Zero Friction meter-to-cash platform

With the Zero Friction platform, Luminus automates the entire billing process: from meter readings to invoices. The platform delivers speed, precision and flexibility.

Thanks to the collaboration, Luminus can respond quickly to new energy directives and expansions of the district heating network, without major IT projects.
