Bahrain's smart electric grid initiative showcases its commitment to technological advancement in the utility sector. The remote collection of electricity and water meter readings through smart meters currently covers thousands of installations, providing immediate, reliable billing while eliminating the need for on-site visits.
The success of this project is a testament to the collaborative efforts of various stakeholders. Notably, the extensive scope of work at the Manama site, including a 220kV Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) extension executed by Sumitomo Corporation, exemplifies the importance of strategic partnerships in executing ambitious projects.
EWA's unified smart grid infrastructure incorporates state-of-the-art technologies, such as smart meters, a non-revenue water management system, and an outage management system, all accessible via a newly launched mobile app. This unified approach streamlines operations, improves customer satisfaction, and elevates service delivery standards.
