Smart Meter System — Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI)
A complete smart meter system — from the meter on the wall to the billing system in the cloud. Centralised data, real-time control, integrated billing.
What is AMI?
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is the complete system that connects smart meters to utility operations. It includes the smart meters themselves, the communication network that transmits data, and the Head End System (HES) that collects, processes, and acts on that data. Tech OVN's AMI solution covers the full stack — meters, communication, HES, billing, and consumer portal.
Head End System Features
The brain of the AMI system — collecting, processing, and acting on data from every meter on your network.
Centralised Data Aggregation
Collect meter data every 15–30 minutes. Eliminate manual readings. Supports 4G and RF communication.
Real-Time Monitoring
Real-time meter data and communication status. Faster response to grid anomalies, consumer behaviour changes, and tampering.
Remote Control
Change relay settings, update firmware, modify time-of-day tariff structures, take on-demand readings — all remotely.
Integrated Billing Engine
Automate billing cycles. Minimise manual intervention for meter reading and data input. Reduce billing disputes with transparent, auditable data.
Cloud-Based & Scalable
Cloud architecture allows deployment from small pilot programmes to nationwide rollouts. Scale as your smart meter network grows.
Consumer Portal & App
Consumers can track electricity consumption, view billing data, and manage their accounts through a web portal and mobile app.
System Architecture
Data flows from the meter on the wall to the dashboard in the cloud — and commands flow back the same way.
