SMi’s 3rd annual Meter Asset Management conference
In order to achieve the very ambitious 20-20-20 target, member states need to consolidate efforts to drive transformation of Europe’s utility networks to become ‘smarter’. Utility companies across Europe face the prospect of meeting the EU’s goal of installing smart meters for a minimum of 80% of consumers by 2020. While utility companies and their customers have already seen significant benefits from smart meters, roll out programmes need to accelerate and challenges have to be overcome. Against this backdrop, SMi’s 3rd annual Meter Asset Management conference will offer a comprehensive analysis of the advantages of smart meters, including case studies from the utility companies themselves. The two-day event will dissect the obstacles involved in installing and managing smart meters, and will provide the ideal platform to engage with peers and industry leaders to discuss the best strategies to meet the 20-20-20 target.
Association of Meter Operator members can receive a £150 discount off the delegate registration fee (excluding current registrations).

SMi Meter Asset Management conference
SMi is pleased to announce the return of its Meter Asset Management conference taking place on the 22nd – 23rd June 2015 in London, UK. This conference will cover issues relating to new smart meters as well as focus on looking at the retention of traditional metering and the many processes involved in switching them over.
Currently, utilities across Europe face the prospect of meeting the EU’s goal of installing smart meters for 80% of consumers by 2020 (European Commission, 2015). Whilst each country is meeting these goals within different time frames, many are in the same position as the UK and are in a crucial stage in the road towards full roll outs. Additionally, gas, electricity and some water suppliers face similar challenges in managing existing meter assets and planning for the roll out and maintenance of smart meters.
