Westchester County, N.Y., legislator Michael Kaplowitz, chairman of the county board’s Budge & Appropriations Committee, met last month with members of the New York state Public Service Commission to discuss implementing pilot programs for area utilities to install AMR.
Under the plan, New York State Electric & Gas and Con Edison would install smart meters in the homes of 50,000 customers.
According to Kaplowitz, the PSC is supportive of a pilot program initiating AMR rollout, but details have not yet been worked out. The lawmaker has also brought a resolution before the PSC calling for the utilities to approach smart metering more aggressively.
Last fall, Westchester County legislators moved to stop Con Edison to replace 300,000 meters with “dumb meters,” arguing that AMR would improve customers’ benefits.
