BPC Records Success With Smart Meters

Following the Block 7 (Gaborone) pilot last November, BPC officials began by a two-month evaluation and assessment period, during which the Corporation and its technical partners gauged the strength of the Hot Water Load Control (HWLC) for wider implementation.

Under the HWLC project, the BPC hopes to save 40 megawatts of energy through the installation of smart meters, which can be remotely used to switch customer's geysers on and off.
