Facilitating and Enabling Innovation Next Week
February 2019 | DCC Public
From 12 February, DCC are running the next Interoperability and
(first) Innovation testing event here in the North West.
The Service Providers delivering the DCC Ecosystem will be
present to support participants testing and debugging their
solutions – we welcome development boards and can provide
complete confidentiality
The interoperability event is intended for SMETS2 meter
manufacturers, and will follow a planned approach
- 868 Gas Meters
- Twin Element Electricity Meters
- Consumer Access Devices
- Key functionality (HAN stability, Future Dated CoS, Export etc.)
DCC Test Event (HAN integration, debug and
development friendly)
Live / Production (Customers, E2E, WAN)
Internal Testing (Unit,
component, Integration)

Initial DCC Innovation Testing Event
February 2019 | DCC Public
The Innovation Event is open to all SEC Parties, co-located with the
Interoperability Test Event, and able to draw upon the DCC Service
Provider resource pool in attendance.
Focus on HCALCS, Twin Element Meters and Energy Storage, but
also a development space for less structured activity
We are accepting applications from product developers to join
future events – you don’t need to be a SEC party to participate

Innovation as Collaboration
February 2019 | DCC Public
February will see DCC, service providers and
partners discussing and connecting HCALCS
devices for the first time
This is a new area for many, and we will be
presenting on the topic to share learnings and
explore possibilities with attendees
We’re also looking forward, subject to
availability, to connecting actual devices to DCC
Communications Hubs
The Interoperability and Innovation Testing plan
for 2019 has been agreed and is available from
