Ontario Smart Meter Deployment Project

The Energie AG smart metering project AMIS was started as the first broad test case in the region “Upper Austria” in 2005 and led by the regional DSO. After 8 years the system has reached a mature state with approximately 100.000 smart meters and 25.000 load switching devices, which replaced the common ripple control receivers.
