Network automation may improve Jo'burg services
Edison Power Group, working with Itron, has received a R1.27bn contract to supply smart meters to the City of Johannesburg.
According to Transmission and Distribution World's website tdworld, the companies will supply the smart meters and a smart metering system -- using network automation -- to improve service delivery and efficiency in the city.
Key to the solution is the fact that City Power's customers can manage their own electricity usage and take steps to reduce energy consumption and save money on their utility bills, the website claims.
