About us
DLMS User Association is a non-profit organization and a leading voice internationally in interoperable and secure data exchange to support strategic energy and water management.

Sergio Lazzarotto
President & Executive Director
Recognized by major international standardization bodies, DLMS UA is focused on developing and promoting efficient and effective interoperable and secure data exchange. We provide a foundation to drive innovation and progress within the energy and water industry.
The development of new products and technologies follows a natural progression from creation to market maturity, which doesn’t always involve standardization. Standardization can speed up this process and promote further innovation.
DLMS UA aims to introduce standardization earlier in the development process to accelerate solution adoption and market growth, which, in turn, can lead to further innovations.
