DRX Gateway

The future of utility data connections

Securely data exchange between utilities and external vendors, customers, and companies.

For Utilities:

Create a Gateway to provide secure communication and data exchange with your vendors, customers, and external third parties. No technical integration required!

For Customers and Companies:

Use our Hub to communicate and transfer data with utilities. You can request meter usage, bill data, and other utility data you need. It's secure, fast, and affordable.

Compatible with Industry Standards

Our products support modern data access standards by default, including OpenID Connect, Green Button, and Connected Data Specifications. When you use DRX Gateway, you never have to worry about meeting industry best practices or interoperability requirements.

How it works

Next generation standards like CDS allow for easy, automated communication and data exchange between utilities and enterprise customers, utility vendors, and external service providers. Below is a diagram of how a typical data exchange is handled. All of these steps can be done manually via our easy-to-use interfaces or automated using our well documented and standards-compliant APIs.

Step 1 (done by Customer or Company)
Send request

Enterprise customers, vendors, and service providers send a data or connection request via our easy-to-use interface or our standards-compliant APIs to the utility with which they are working.

Requests are secure and can be for any type of utility data, customer data, or connection information, such as documentation or API configuration details.

Review the request

Utilities receive data and connection requests via their standards-compliant Gateway interface or APIs, then decide if it should be approved.

We support standardized communication protocols, so utilities can send messages back and forth with the customer or company if they need to supply more information. All communication is logged according to the utility's security requirements.

Upload approved data

If the request is approved, utilities populate the requested data into their Gateway using our simple drag-and-drop interface, SFTP server, or APIs.

Our smart data pipeline technology automatically converts the data into standards-compliant formats for data exchange, so utilities don't need to worry about converting the data themselves. We do that for you!

Receive data

The customer or company that sent the request receives a notification in their Hub dashboard that the requested data is ready for exchange.

The approved data can be downloaded via any of our standards-compliant formats (CDS JSON, Green Button XML, CSV, etc.) via API, SFTP server, or manually in our DRX Hub dashboard.

Built with experience

We have over a decade of experience in building utility data exchanges, so we know what we're doing. Our founder, Daniel Roesler, has been deeply involved in utility data exchanges and standards development over a decade. He was on the Green Button Alliance board, and he wrote the next generation LF Energy CDS standards for secure utility data exchange.

We also have extensive experience running production software systems for utilities and large enterprise companies, so we know how to keep things secure, in compliance with regulations, and scalable to meet the needs of utilities, customers, vendors, contractors, and service providers.
