ADVANCED METERING & MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE ( AMMI)

Smart MetersIntroducing Next Generation Utility (Electricity, Water, gas) meters which will revolutionize the energy use by putting the consumer in control.

Smart Meters-WorldwidePrepaid Meter service- No depositsHousehold budget balancing.Expandable to water and gas metering

Our meters are smarter than the Smartest Meter !We not only measure and control remotely the meter readings from Electricity, water and gas, but also give you Data and Voice as add on features

AMMI includes hardware, software, communications, and a metering data management software.

Smart Meter-WorldwideHere are obvious benefits to consumers remote meter reading. Security Environmental benefits- reduced emission of carbon dioxide and fewer new power plants.No Load Shedding if managed properly by UtilitiesPeak power can be reduced during peak demand.Smart MetersSmart meters are a technological solution that could lead to more efficient use of electricity. reducing both consumption and peak demand, carbon dioxide emissions and other environmental impacts will be reduced.

Smart meters can be used to: provide better information to householders add financial incentives to encourage householders to respond to that information make it easy and convenient for householders to strengthen that response.

The delivery of these benefits, however, depends on the necessary functionality being included in the meters and on more cost-reflective tariffs being offered.

Smart Solutions( Bi-Directional- Two way last mile communication for ) Water Gas Power

Smart Meter solution benefits

Meter readingsa) Remote scheduled consumption reading.b) Remote consumption readings on demand.c) Reading intervals are configurable for every 30 minute intervals or longer intervals.

2) Demand Controlled readings (Geysers, air conditioners, swimming pool and sump pumps, etc.)a) Remote scheduled consumption reading.b) Remote consumption readings on demand.c) Reading intervals are configurable for every 30 minute intervals or longer intervals.

3) Statistical analysisa) Daily consumption of 30 minute intervals can be mapped against total demand.b) Total household consumption versus geyser, air conditioner consumption, etc.c) Consumer peak demand requirements.d) Electricity requirements of consumers in retirement and active working consumers per 30 minute intervals.

Smart Meter solution benefits

4) Tamper management on electricity meters and demand controllers.By-passes.Low consumption.Obstruction of communication between HUB and meter/demand controller.

5) Meter managementSwitch on/off electricity remotely (Max 3 minute delay).Switch between pre/post-paid remotely (Max 5 minute delay).Real-time implementation and management of Time-of-Use.Tariff changes/updates remotely.Firmware updates remotely.

6) Demand Control Module(DCM) managementSwitch on/off demand controller remotely (Max 3 minute delay).Calculated demand management per severity of power supply shortfall.Load limiting in cases of power supply shortfall.

Smart Meter solution benefits

7) Logistical supporta) Management of stock (Stores, consignment, in transit, etc).b) Task management (Installations, repairs, services, removals, maintenance, etc).c) Real time site feedback on maintenance and support status.

8) Software upgradesa) Online upgrade of meters and HUBs.b) Remote online implementation of new functionality.

9) Management software interfaces to utilitya) GIS Information.b) Meter reading upload.

10) Asset management a) Complete knowledge of meters, DCMs and HUBs installed per address or area.b) Automated assets register and status of assets regarding new, repaired, etc.

Smart Meter solution benefits (Continues)

11) ReportingPre-Paid tokens loaded on HUBs.Meter reading (Scheduled and on demand).Demand Controller readings (Scheduled and on demand).Power failures.Low consumption.Tampers.

12) Customer relations management (CRM)a) Communication channel to customer.b) Customer interface unit (Services HUB) with information to rendered services.c) Real-time billing of services.d) WEB interface for real-time information on services.Empowering CommunitiesOne Stop solutions for Electricity Metering with expandable modules for Gas and Water PLUS Data and Voice ( Internet and Telephony to Urban rural communities)Efficient management of Precious resourcesDemand Side Management by Two way communications Smart Meter SolutionsProviding a Total Solution to Utility / Municipality / Body Corporates Services HUB, Electricity Meter/Demand Controller and Water Meter with Meter Management Automatic Meter Reading (Electricity/Water) Local Meter Control (Electricity/Water) Local Demand Side Management (e.g. Ripple Control - Electricity) Remote Token Recharge (Electricity/Water) (Refer to Vending Slide) Local Tamper Management (Electricity) (Refer to Tamper Slide) Local Tamper Management (Water) (Refer to Tamper Slide) Night Flow Management (Water) External Magnetic Interference Proof (Water) Communication (Refer to Communication Slide) GPRS SMS Radio Frequency (RF) VAS Value Added Services Telephone (GSM) Internet (GPRS) Services Failure Reporting / SMS Facility (Mains Failure, Main Supply Failure, etc.) Emergency Services Call Button Messages Services / Advertising on Meter Display with Buzzer Consumer Controlled Demand Management (Geyser, Security Lights, Under Floor Heating, etc.)
