With the installation of interval meters, companies in the meter data provision role will need robust and scalable systems for managing the vastly increased volume of meter data.
Interval meter rollouts bring significant challenges which can include:
- Planning for exponentially more data
- Meeting AMI-ready timelines - either rollout-driven or government-mandated
- Managing systems change
- Balancing the upfront cost of a scalable system with enhanced data handling capabilities with the phased rollout of meters
- Balancing the desire to automate connect/disconnect with cost of system changes
- The need for long-term flexibility as technology and business objectives are still evolving
