Discover how Asian Development Bank (ADB) funded Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) smart meters are replacing manual meter reading across GEPCO circles in Gujranwala, Sialkot, and Gujrat.
What is the GEPCO AMI Smart Metering Project?
The Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Project is a technological modernization initiative by Gujranwala Electric Power Company. It replaces traditional electromechanical and digital meters with smart electronic meters equipped with wireless SIM cards and two-way communication modules.
Key Features & Benefits of GEPCO Smart Meters
- 100% Elimination of Manual Reading Errors: Smart meters transmit real-time consumption data automatically to GEPCO central servers via cellular networks, eliminating overbilling or human reading errors.
- Real-Time Outage Monitoring: GEPCO control rooms receive instant notifications when power trips on a specific transformer, accelerating repair response times.
- Prepaid Billing & Real-Time Usage Tracking: Consumers can monitor live electricity consumption, daily unit usage, and hourly load graphs.
- Tamper Protection: Detects unauthorized meter opening or power theft attempts automatically.
