Smart Metering

Smart metering technology is designed to enhance efficiency in energy consumption by providing real-time tracking and detailed information on electricity usage. This system helps consumers monitor their energy use patterns, encouraging them to shift usage to off-peak hours when electricity is cheaper.

Smart Metering

Studies have shown that having such consumer energy info in real-time can reduce energy use by 5 to 15%
