Gas meters are essential tools for measuring household and industrial energy consumption. Traditionally, they require manual on-site readings, which can be time-consuming, error-prone, and costly for utilities.
The solution: Retrofit technology upgrades existing meters with communication modules, enabling Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and real-time remote monitoring.
How retrofit works:
-
The module collects gas usage data continuously and sends it via secure wireless networks.
-
Utilities can access real-time consumption reports without sending field staff.
-
Alerts can be generated automatically for unusual usage patterns, leaks, or tampering.
Key benefits:
-
Accurate and transparent consumption data for both consumers and utilities
-
Reduced operational and labor costs by minimizing manual readings
-
Early detection of leaks or abnormal consumption to prevent accidents
-
Minimizes the environmental impact by extending meter lifespan and reducing electronic waste
-
Supports integration into broader smart city and IoT infrastructure
Why it matters: By avoiding full meter replacement, retrofitting saves costs, reduces material waste, and accelerates the transition toward safer, smarter, and more efficient energy systems. This solution is applicable for both residential and industrial gas infrastructure.
