Automated Meter Reading

Automated Meter Reading
Our Automated Meter Reading (AMR) devices give you access to the most accurate, up-to-date consumption information – helping you control costs, monitor usage and implement effective energy-efficiency measures. 

How does Automated Meter Reading work?

AMR devices establish a remote communication between your business and your energy supplier. Consumption data is transmitted directly from the AMR device to the energy supplier, eliminating the need for manual meter readings.

This streamlines the meter reading process, ensures you receive more accurate bills and gives you valuable insights into your energy usage patterns.

Cost and efficiency benefits of AMR

One of the primary benefits of AMR is the elimination of estimated bills. That eradicates uncertainty for your business, simplifies budgeting and helps to improve forecasting.

AMR empowers you to analyse your energy usage data in depth. Consumption data is available for 30 or 60-minute intervals, delivered daily or weekly, depending on the AMR service level. That enables you to monitor usage patterns and identify areas for improvement. This level of visibility helps you to develop tailored strategies to operate more efficiently and reduce energy costs.

Quality-assured devices for data accuracy

Our AMR devices undergo rigorous testing to ensure durability, signal reliability and data quality. The data collected by the AMR device is transmitted via the mobile network using roaming SIMs (to ensure the best signal) to the data collection system. At this stage, the data is processed and then validated, before being delivered back to you.

Customers can rely on National Gas Metering to deliver consumption data daily. Our commitment to timely, accurate delivery enables you to make informed decisions and optimise your energy management strategies with confidence.
