Smart meters: ready for rollout

Things are moving: „We will accelerate the smart meter rollout, remove red tape from the Metering Point Operation Act, stimulate the market and competition and, of course, focus on sustainability in the long term,“ announced Patrick Graichen, State Secretary at the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, recently at the Digital Energy Conference in Berlin. What is meant is the installation of smart metering systems in the German power grid. The draft is supposed to be available by the beginning of 2023.
