The federation of water and electricity announced that it has completed the composition of more than 450 thousand smart meters, of which 220 thousand smart electricity meters and 240 thousand smart water meters, at 65% of the total number aimed at its installation within its project to transform into the first smart meters system of its kind in the Middle East region.
The General Director of Water and Electricity, Mohamed Saleh, said that the Union Water and Electricity project is part of a long -term vision to push the digital transformation through the use of the most intelligent technologies that contributes to self -improving the service provided and achieving a higher level of dealers' expectations..
Saleh said that the project of replacing the traditional mechanical meters with smart meters, ambitious and unique as the company won international awards such as the Golden Shield Award for Best Technology in the Category of Information Technology Awards within the Steve International Awards 2020, which confirms the company's permanent endeavor to
Achieving the prescribed leadership, by adopting the latest technologies, and the best global practices related to the field of services it provides.
He explained that the project will achieve many qualitative benefits, whether at the internal operational level and at the level of service provided to customers, as the new system will allow reading consumption rates first -hand with extreme precision and remote
97%, seven smart meters are read in one second and with accuracy that exceeds 99.9%, and readings of all new smart consumption meters will be taken in a period not exceeding a few hours, compared to thousands of hours consumed for the same action in light of the traditional meters, where the smart meter is characterized by the exceptional speed of
During the possibility of stopping and re -delivering the service automatically, and even the automatic update of the programs used remotely.
He pointed out that the project will facilitate the discovery of errors and the factors of unusual deviation in consumption, such as possible leaks and their concentration points as well
Cases, to no more than 48 hours under the new system, which will also be reflected in the time of the completion of the necessary reforms in leaks and extensions, if any.
He stated that the smart meters system contributes and through the results of the analytical processes to the huge data that it will provide in setting long -term plans, whether at the level of future needs of the regions or the quality of the service provided and the preferences of consumers, and it will also allow the consumer to identify its pattern
Consumer and monitoring, thus codifying and directing it, and other advantages and capabilities, which will be activated in succession with the progress of the implementation of the project.
From the project, he added, raising the level of occupational and public health and safety, as the disposal of the mechanism reading in mechanical mechanisms will reduce work injuries caused by dealing with different equipment and heavy inspection room covers, as well as exposure to high weather temperature
And traffic accidents.
Saleh affirmed that the integration of the new smart meters system into the internal operations systems will improve the response systems of inquiries and complaints of dealers, as well as their impact on the overall resource management and the stability of service prices..
He explained that the project is consistent with the government's endeavors towards reducing carbon emissions and achieving sustainability in the energy sector, as well as in line with the state's directions in the comprehensive transformation towards smart solutions and harnessing them in providing efficient and quality services in various service sectors, pointing out that the union is
Water and electricity recently concluded a partnership with one of the specialized service providers, in order to provide the necessary infrastructure to build the M2M network (3G/4G) dedicated to the actual electronic connection to the new meters.
