Wirepas PINO™ - the winner of the IoT Product Innovation Award at the European Utility Week

PINO™ has won the IoT Product Innovation Award at the European Utility Week (3-5 November, Vienna, Austria). The awards ceremony was held in Vienna on 3 November 2015. European Utility Week is the annual landmark event of the European energy calendar bringing together all significant market forces and stakeholders.

“I see this as a recognition for the work we have done on the technology, but also for the market approach that we have. Yes we are a technology company, but we take the customer need as a starting point and that’s the road we are going to continue on. We value this recognition highly.”, Wirepas CEO Teppo Hemiä says.

Wirepas Pino was nominated in two categories; Grid & Renewable Integration and IoT Product Innovation. Wirepas booth can be found at A.j17 at the Utility Week.
