EMH metering and Corinex validate Broadband Powerline Communication for the digitalization of electrical distribution grids

VANCOUVER, BC, June 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The CASA Smart Meter Gateway (SMGW) has been successfully verified for use with the Broadband Powerline (BPL) technology developed by Corinex Communications Inc. ("Corinex"). Corinex, a provider of BPL-based grid solutions, validated the integration through testing conducted at its laboratory in Bratislava.

As part of the verification process, a CASA SMGW was connected to GWA software via Corinex's 1T BPL modem. The results confirmed full compatibility between CASA and the modem, with data transmission successfully established. Through these tests, the two companies validated the proof of concept for connecting the CASA SMGW to the Corinex 1T Modem.

Peter Sobotka, Chief Executive Officer of Corinex, commented:

"Broadband Powerline technology provides an effective foundation for the modernization and digitalization of electrical distribution grids. The successful demonstration of interoperability between our modem and CASA represents a significant milestone in this process."

Peter Heuell, Chief Executive Officer of EMH metering, added:

"Our customers can now implement BPL connectivity using our gateway. This marks an important step toward improved communication during Smart Meter Gateway deployments, particularly in areas where cellular connectivity reaches its limits."
