(Business in Cameroon) - In its latest activity report, the electricity company Eneo announced that at the end of 2017, 500 smart meters were activated in Douala and Yaoundé and deployment continued this year.  

The devices are linked to the Metering Management System (MMS), a remote meter index acquisition system that makes it possible to read the meters remotely.

“This system allows a regular and reliable consumption measurement […], ensures a permanent bill distribution, limits disagreement risk,” explains Eneo.

The MMS platform was acquired by the company in 2009 and put at the service of Medium Voltage customers who have industrial meters. In 2016, this platform was enhanced to include high value Low Voltage (LV) customers before been further improved this year to allow faster interventions in case of meter defects.
