ConclusionsConclusions Smart Meters will be used with the traditional
DSM enabling technologies , thereby –– Increasing effectiveness
– Reducing cost
Smart Meters will offer utilities and their customers new opportunities to save energy and demand in order to shave system peaks and reduce customer bills
Nxegen has a patented system that covers any control of end uses from a central facility using smart meters
