Trilliant and Thailand’s Samart Telecoms have reached a milestone with the delivery of Advanced Metering Infrastructure for the Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA).
The deployment of the AMI is for commercial and industrial meters to meet the complex requirements of PEA, according to a statement.
Supporting multiple meter brand deployments, Samart is leveraging Trilliant’s UnitySuite head end system as part of its offering and services for PEA to improve real-time data collection efficiency for customers.
The entire solution ecosystem that is being delivered to the utility is cellular-based communication with multiple meter brand deployments and includes head end system backend integration to Samart’s meter operations management system.
