The Hindu
Replacement of meters will not lead to change in existing tariff
Cochin Smart Mission Limited (CSML) is setting up 26,000 ‘smart electricity meters’ in the city. These are being installed in homes in divisions 1 to 5, and 62, 66, and 67 of the Kochi Corporation. A total of 8,039 meters have already been installed. CSML is replacing existing meters with the smart ones for the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB), in the first such project for the State. There will be no change in the existing tariff even if the meter is replaced. Consumers will be able to gather meter readings on their own and can monitor consumption regularly. The smart meter can be connected to the consumer’s phone number, and an application will be launched for the purpose.
