What’s changing?
Current meter: records your usage and sends those readings to REMC through the power lines.
New meter: uses radio frequency and two-way communication to send data across a secure wireless network.
Benefits include:
Faster power restoration
In most cases, new meters will notify Clark County REMC the moment the power goes out. This allows us to start the restoration process sooner.
Greener operations
Remote capabilities mean fewer miles on our trucks and lower carbon emissions.
