Smart Metering & Telemetry (SMT)

Important Definitions: Smart Metering - an advanced meter (or metering system) thatrecords consumption in intervals of an hour or less andcommunicates that information at least daily via somecommunications network back to the distribution company formonitoring and billing purposes. Smart meters enable two-way

communication between the meter and the central system. AMI - Advanced Metering Infrastructure is a term denoting utility

meters that measure and record usage data at a minimum, inhourly intervals, and provide usage data to both consumers andenergy companies at least once daily.

AMR - Automated Meter Reading is a term denoting utility metersthat collect data for billing purposes only and transmit this data oneway, usually from the customer to the distribution utility.

Value Proposition Highlights

Early detection of metering or instrumentation failure (reduce estimatedbills)

Eliminate manual reading (reduces carbon footprint)

Same Day billing (improved utility cash flow)

More accurate and frequent readings (daily or any time there is a change in

the contract between buyer and seller) Improved understanding of gas consumption--thereby enabling a change in

gas use behavior (conservation)

Introduction of new tariffs based on demand or time (customer choice)

Optimized system pressure control (reduce Lost and Unaccounted for gas[LUAF])

Volume load study for system design, system model and rate design

Theft detection/prevention (improved risk management)

Remote services / report by exception (reduces truck roll and associatedcosts)

How to Sell and to Who? Support?

Need to understand what the utilities C&I customer base looks like ) How many C&I customers

Are there special needs are required for this class of customer. Unique tariffs,

complicated billing needs,

Determine responsibility for gas nomination (Energy Mgmt),

allocation & GHG reporting Follow up to learn how customer is handling now and where it hurts

Present preliminary information on DC2009, CNI2, SIP-CB (EU),

IMU-II/S and TDS

Engage SMT team for support .
