Smart Gas Meters in the Netherlands

FLONIDAN, a leading provider of smart gas metering solutions, is proud to announce it has been awarded a major contract to supply potentially millions of next-generation gas meters to the Dutch Distribution System Operators (DSOs) Netbeheer Nederland. The agreement marks the largest contract in FLONIDAN’s history, reinforcing its position as a long-standing and trusted partner in the Netherlands’ energy transition.

The contract includes two lots, covering the full range of meter sizes from G4 up to G25:

Lot 1: G4/6 SciFlo gas meters for residential applications.

Lot 2: G10/16/25 SciFlo gas meters, marking FLONIDAN’s first “industrial” ultrasonic gas meters.

FLONIDAN emerged as the number one supplier in the tender, securing over 60% of the residential meters and the full industrial meter range, highlighting the company’s technical excellence and trusted reputation.

The award is part of the DSMR6 G-meter tender, a joint initiative by Dutch DSOs aimed at revolutionising energy metering infrastructure. Over the next ten years, FLONIDAN will deliver, energy-efficient smart gas meters that meet both residential and industrial needs.

“This is more than a commercial milestone, it is a shared commitment to a smarter, more sustainable energy future,” explains Yasin Simsek, Sales Development Manager at FLONIDAN. “We are proud to deepen our 20-year partnership with Dutch DSOs and to support their forward-thinking digitalisation goals.”

Supporting a FAIR* and Sustainable Future

Beyond technical performance, FLONIDAN’s proposal was distinguished by its alignment with DSOs’ vision for fully FAIR metering by 2050, covering CO₂ neutrality additionally to the current requirements for circularity, conflict-free materials, ethical labour, transparency, and the elimination of hazardous substances. FLONIDAN’s smart meters are designed for longevity, powered by ultra-efficient D-cell batteries lasting up to 25 years, with minimal material and energy footprints.

*A Fair Meter is a sustainable, ethical smart energy meter designed to improve environmental impact and transparency, often featuring fully traceable, reusable components and fair labour practices.

NextGen Metering Architecture: Built for a Digital Future

FLONIDAN’s meters also support the NextGen metering architecture, enabling seamless communication via a modular gateway. This ensures flexibility, upgradeability, and interoperability, essential for a fully digital, IP-based infrastructure.

“Our smart meters are not only products, they are part of a digital ecosystem designed to evolve with tomorrow’s energy networks,” said Sten Anderson, CEO of FLONIDAN. “We are proud to support the DSOs in building a more connected, responsible, and circular energy system.”

Richard van Harten Contract Manager for Alliander commented:

“This tender is a key step in modernising the Netherlands' energy measurement system. The award to FLONIDAN reflects their long-term dedication to innovation, fair supply chain practices, and reliable product performance.”
