Learn about our work with the Data Communications Company (DCC)

The upcoming rollout of smart meters will be an important part of the UK’s transition to a low-carbon economy, helping to meet some of the long-term challenges faced in ensuring an affordable, secure and sustainable energy supply.


Critical Software is active in the research and development of Smart Technologies, and this project is another example of how the ‘Internet of Things’ can help bring about significant progress when combined with the latest technologies and innovations in the energy sector.


In this case study, we explore how Critical Software has been working with key industry player, DCC, to help make a UK infrastructure project on a never-before seen scale a reality.
