Edison SmartConnect meters are digital and two-way communicating devices that replace traditional mechanical meters. By the end of the year, SCE will introduce new pricing plans, programs and services that will allow customers to make informed decisions about their energy use.
Installations will continue through 2012 to a total of nearly five million SCE residential and small-business customers in its 50,000 square mile service territory. SCE has contracted with Corix Utilities to perform most of the installations.
Ken Devore, director of Edison SmartConnect program at SCE, said: “Over the past several years, we have focused on developing an industry-leading smart meter program, including extensive testing of our smart meters and associated systems to ensure their quality and performance.
“Smart meters will empower our customers to become better managers of their electricity usage through new tools, programs and services that will help them save energy, money and the environment.”
