“We look forward to continuing our partnership with Rejlers, which has been one of our metering services suppliers during the most recent contract period,” said Lars-Eric Larsson, Strategic Buyer at Sinfra.
“Sinfra is a key partner for Rejlers, as we have many shared customers in the electricity market, and the agreement makes it easier for member companies to place call-off orders for related services and products without having to go through time-consuming procurement processes. We look forward to supporting Sinfra with our know-how and expertise and continuing to guide companies in the right direction,” said Martin Sellman, Country Manager at Rejlers Embriq AB.
Quant – Future-proof and flexible
Through the new agreement, Sinfra’s members gain access to Quant, a flexible meter reading platform which is both future-proof and handles changes in the electricity market in a smart and agile way.

Quant’s collection engine handles most meter types on the Swedish market and can be integrated into various MDM/KIS systems. The connections are established via Drivers or API.
Quant is one of the market’s most effective systems as regards development and adaptation to Smart Grid functionality. In Norway, Rejlers is the market leader with the solution and over fifty percent of all meter readings from Norway’s electricity grid companies are processed via Quant. Through the new agreement, Sinfra’s members are offered a platform for the flexible management of meter readings from electricity, district heating and gas meters.
