  • Meter Reading Profiles and Best Practices 2006

    The Ascent Group, Inc. - May 2006
    This detailed 354 page color report delivers the results of our research on utility meter reading practices and technologies. The Ascent Group recently conducted research (during the first quarter of 2006) to better understand how different utilities are optimizing practices and utilizing technology to improve meter reading efficiency and effectiveness while reducing operating costs. We asked companies to share strategies and experiences to identify the practices that lead to higher productivity, reduced costs, and increased performance. We also asked utilities to provide their plans moving forward as well as lessons learned along the way.
