Smart prepaid meters a step towards empowering consumers

The history of energy metering has been one of constant evolution, marked by technological advancements. From the early days of analog and electro-mechanical meters, we progressed to electronic static-type digital meters, which were introduced around two decades ago, improving the accuracy of energy measurements. Now, as we stand at the crossroads of yet another transformation—the era of smart prepaid meters—the lessons of the past empower us to embrace the future with open arms and informed minds.

The power sector, inspired by the rapid evolution of technology, has embarked on a mission to turn consumers into smart users. Just as mobile phones transformed from simple communication devices into pocket-sized computers and analog watches transformed into versatile smartwatches, the power sector seeks to offer more than just energy supply and measurement. The recent “Right of Consumer Rules, 2020,” issued by the Ministry of Power, exemplifies this commitment by aiming to enhance consumers’ quality of life and provide exceptional services.
