TL;DR: On October 2, 2026, Landis+Gyr said it is integrating Thales' GSMA SGP.32-compliant eSIM technology and connectivity management into its Revelo and Surent smart metering platforms, initially for North American deployments.

On October 2, 2026, Landis+Gyr said it is integrating Thales' GSMA SGP.32-compliant eSIM technology and connectivity management into its Revelo and Surent smart metering platforms, initially for North American deployments.

Thales will provide IoT eSIM technology that complies with the GSMA SGP.32 specification, which allows connectivity profiles to be provisioned and managed remotely without replacing SIM hardware. Landis+Gyr said this gives utilities more control over cellular connectivity during the operational life of deployed smart meters.

Landis+Gyr said Thales' technology will be combined with Simetric's connectivity management platform to provide a centralized environment for monitoring, analyzing, and controlling connectivity across meter fleets. The management environment supports both conventional SIM and eSIM-enabled devices.

Landis+Gyr said it serves more than 2,000 utilities worldwide and has more than 180 million connected intelligent devices in the field. Citing Berg Insight, the companies said the North American installed base of smart electricity meters is expected to rise from 152.4 million in 2024 to 180.9 million by 2030.
