Smart Meters to Revitalize Groundwater Resources in Semnan

In line with plans to revitalize and balance groundwater resources in Semnan Province, 302 wells were equipped with smart meters last Iranian year (March 2022-2023), deputy of protection and operation at the provincial Water and Wastewater Company said. 
“Moreover, 28 illegal wells were sealed last year, which helped prevent extraction of 100,000 cubic meters of water,” Hamid Ehsani was quoted as saying by IRNA.
A smart electricity meter digitally sends meter readings to energy suppliers and ensures accurate billing. Smart meters also come with monitors so that users can see and better understand their consumption.
Utilities in many developed and developing countries are promoting advanced electricity meters for economic and environmental reasons, especially to cut costs and reduce consumption.
