Saarbrücken-based Zenner International GmbH & Co. KG is an active member and sponsor of the LoRa Alliance, a globally active association and association of companies that has made the development and promotion of the open LoRaWAN standard its mission. LoRaWAN is already a widely used communication protocol that was developed specifically for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The technology is characterized by a high transmission range and building penetration. LoRaWAN consumes very little energy during transmission.

Zenner's LoRaWAN network service is currently offered in 15 countries and currently comprises just over 100,000 LoRaWAN gateways and more than seven million sensors: "With these prerequisites, we have the opportunity to provide our customers with a large portfolio of meters, sensors and gateways. They benefit from our team's many years of expertise, which supports the implementation of solutions and practical use cases for Smart City, Smart Building, Smart Utility, Smart Industry and Smart Submetering," explains Boris Stöckermann, Head of Business Development and Digital Strategies in the Minol-Zenner Group.

"Together with our partners throughout the Minol-Zenner Group, we are able to offer holistic digital solutions for the cross-sector digitalization of the energy transition. This allows us to further expand the use of LoRaWAN together and develop new solutions," adds Stöckermann. Zenner offers sustainable IoT solutions for industries and utilities that can be implemented with little effort. According to Zenner, existing solutions can be scaled quickly and economically in an existing LoRaWAN network with the corresponding gateways or new IoT solutions can be added easily.
