Electricity distribution company Ad Electrichas announced that it will be breaking new ground in the industry with an announcement made today. The company is a Turkish space company that develops satellite technologies for a new method of reading electricity meters in certain cities. with Plan-S announced that they are working together. Plan-S was developed by astrophysicist Dr., one of Turkey’s leading scientists. It was the company for which Umut left NASA.
According to the press release, the project developed within the scope of this partnership; In the provinces of Aydın, Denizli and Muğla Electricity meters will be read from space.
It will enable meter reading in rural areas where GSM access is limited.
The system will enable meter reading through real-time data acquisition and analysis processes via satellite. Especially this way This makes it possible to read meter data and detect energy losses in rural areas where GSM access is limited is planned.
In the project Internet of Things (IoT) Data will be obtained from electricity meters using the infrastructure. This data, Plan-S Via satellites with Connecta IoT technology It is sent to Adm Elektrik’s data centers. This allows meters to be read quickly and efficiently in all kinds of regions. It is also stated that the CO2 footprint will be reduced.
Apart from this, the project Preventing loss and illegal use will also play an important role. Collecting real-time data from meters will help detect illegal electricity consumption.
It was indicated that the pilot application process successfully obtained data from regions where previously data could not be obtained. It is said that full implementation will begin in 2025. Plan-S is already in orbit 4 pieces Let’s note that there is a Connecta IoT Network satellite and four more will be launched soon.
