Smart Metering
Utilities face unconventional challenges in managing supply and demand dynamics. Each day, distribution companies are exposed to the risk of meter tampering, unaccounted loss of utility resources and lower operational efficiencies. Costs arising from repeated customer service and payment collection efforts affect the bottom line.
In regulated markets, higher operational efficiencies can be a game changer. Our IoT based automated metering solution (AMS) offers an effective turnaround for such enterprises by deploying smart meters that can read, monitor and alert utility companies remotely. Consumption is monitored, readings are reported to automate billing, tampers are alerted, and every unity of resource consumed is accounted for.TTS also offers retrofitting solutions for analog meters.
By implementing a IOT-based smart utilities infrastructure comprised of sensors and gateways, utility and metering companies can collect data remotely and use personnel more efficiently to streamline operations and reduce cost. Utility applications leveraging LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN® protocol offer customers strong business value, with documented use cases reducing waste and increasing efficiency to consistently deliver quick return on investment (ROI).
