Oman considering remote metre reading
- Oman: Tuesday, February 26 - 2013 at 03:24
Muscat Electricity Distribution Co (MEDC) is considering the introduction of more advanced technology to allow remote metre reading, following the launch of the self-metre reading (SMR) billing procedure, Times of Oman has reported. "Since SMR has received a positive response from customers, we are now considering remote metre reading," said MEDC corporate communications specialist, Zahran Zahir Al Ruqeishi. "This will employ technology that reads the meter through a chip attached to the metre," he said. "We intend to target initially high-consumption meters. As technology becomes available and affordable, we may expand on this service so that we can centrally read metres in remote locations."
