💨 Abstract

BESCOM is installing smart meters in Bengaluru with transparency, offering an option to existing customers. The smart meters, part of a digital approach, provide real-time electricity usage data, enable TOD rates, and streamline power restoration. The state has not yet accepted the central RDSS scheme due to certain conditions, and the installation process is being funded locally. The installation started in urban areas and will expand to rural areas soon.
