Iberdrola starts in Cartagena implementation of meters and smart grid (04/08/2011)

The company Iberdrola has announced that from September, will start in Cartagena massive implementation project accounting and intelligent networks, later extended to municipalities throughout the Mar Menor and Murcia, such as exposed Company officials this morning Councillor for Infrastructure, Francisco Espejo.

This pioneering project is the installation of electronic meters that provide benefits to consumers and the system, by encouraging active demand management, remote management, and energy efficiency.

To the Company also will improve the quality of supply, to be able to perform many maneuvers in real time and distance.

Due to this action, which resulted in cuts in the supply point of light to work in the substations, the company will hold campaigns contacting neighborhood associations, community-owned offices and consumers, in time to warn the residents of these cuts, is expected to not exceed two hours.

In a first phase, Iberdrola plans to begin installing in the city of 23,500 smart electronic meters, which will replace the traditional electromechanical equipment.

This action will be completed during 2012 with the total renovation of the metering equipment of the municipality to reach the 127,000 delivery points.

In addition, the project also includes the appropriateness of some 500 processing centers to which they will incorporate cutting-edge electronic equipment.
