Stromnetz Berlin - Goes Digital with various approaches

The distribution operator "Stromnetz Berlin" with some 2.4 Million customers and 350.000 house service connections operates the following networks and applies various communication solutions:

110 kV Network: 
- 80 Substations with 600 switch gears
- all switch gears remote controllable
- communication infrastructure: fiber optic

10 kV Network:
- 10,700 Distribution stations with 23,000 switch gears
- 10 per cent of switchgears remote controllable
- expandable to 100 per cent
- communication infrastructure: land line, TETRA Radio

0,4 kV Network:
- 15,000 cable distributor boxes
- 96,000 feeders
- 1 per cent of switch gears remote controllable
- expandable to 100 per cent
- communication infrastructure: pager (e*nergy - based on e*message)

The protocols used are likely quite different - I guess.
