Adani Transmission, a unit of the Adani Group, said on Thursday it has won a deal to install and maintain one million smart meters for Mumbai’s BEST Undertaking.<\/p>\n
The deal value for the multi-year engagement has been pegged at nearly Rs 1,300 crore, according to sources.<\/p>\n
“As part of the mandate, smart meters and related communication and cloud infrastructure will be installed over a period of 30 months and maintained for the following 90 months,” the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n
BEST supplies power in Mumbai, which also uses Adani Electricity, Tata Power and others for the service.<\/p>\n
The meters will enable BEST customers to monitor online their power consumption, Adani Transmission said. The meters will also provide an option for pre-paid billing and net-metering for housing societies and commercial buildings with roof-top solar facilities.<\/p>\n
“BEST will also have the ability to carry out remote connection and disconnection of non-paying customers. Smart meters also enable regulators to design consumer-friendly Time of Day Tariffs and drive overall efficiency in electricity distribution,” it said.<\/p>\n
Adani Transmission is expected to start work shortly on installing the meters, sources said.<\/p>\n
Adani Electricity, another unit of the group, indicated earlier that it would invest in smart meters for its consumers in Mumbai at an investment of Rs 500 crore.<\/p>\n
In the first phase, the company is likely to install smart meters for seven lakh consumers by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
