The Wavecom modules are expected to be delivered over a period of more than 12 months, depending on the rate of installation. In addition to meeting these new requirements, the meters will also provide much more value-added information to enable users to manage better their energy consumption, thereby saving costs and helping with environmental conservation. The meters are designed to meet the requirements of the recently deregulated utility market in the UK where actual, rather than estimated, regular monthly reading will soon become mandatory. This market, in the UK alone, is estimated to be in the order of two million users.
The initial order for 60,000 Wavecom modules will be integrated into utility meters and will include EDMI's meter management and data retrieval software, Eziview and Multidriv, which target industrial, commercial and small businesses end-users. BGlobal is the first meter data collection provider to introduce this technology and will supply the complete AMR package to independent electricity suppliers in the UK such as Economy Power. EDMI Ltd., headquartered in Singapore, has chosen a modem from Wavecom's Australian distributor InterCEL to integrate with its advanced MK10 electronic revenue meter to provide a wireless AMR solution for BGlobal Metering in the UK.
