Harish Agarwal, President, IEEMA said, “A new range of ‘smart meters’ can bring efficiency to how India manages its electricity, by checking data-entry errors and billing efficiencies and cutting the costs of manual meter reading through web-based monitoring system”.
Ashish Tandon, Chairman- Meter Division, IEEMA said, “The Indian metering Industry is fully capable of delivering 240 million smart prepaid meters. We have all the desired capacity and capabilities to design, develop, manufacture and ship these meters from state-of-art-manufacturing units within India, which is fully aligned with Prime Minister’s vision of ‘Make In India’. However, we require support from the utilities and the ministry to fulfil this vision; firstly a realistic time frame to be laid, so that the goal can be achieved practically. Secondly, consolidation of technologies is required and thirdly, realistic price expectations. If we get the right volumes, we will surely achieve the right price. Lastly, we have to move from buyer seller L1 mode to partnership mode.”
