AMR 2.0. – Transformation Project - Solteq Utilities Consulting

A Successful Transition to the Next Generation of Metering

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMR 2.0) refers to the next generation of automated metering systems that enable real-time or near-real-time consumption data collection. For distribution system operators, transitioning to AMR 2.0 is critical for improving operational efficiency, meeting regulatory demands, and enabling data-driven customer service. It supports a more intelligent, more resilient energy system and lays the foundation for future innovations such as dynamic pricing, demand response, and predictive maintenance.
