The Universal NIC offers improved connectivity because Bluetooth-enabled communication guarantees the collection of meter data and performs tasks like reconnecting and disconnecting in difficult network situations.
It also provides integration with mobile applications. The NIC is designed to integrate effortlessly with Tata Power-DDL's consumer mobile applications and meter reading systems, delivering an improved user experience.
"By working closely with Tata Power-DDL, we aim to set a new standard in smart metering technology," Anand Singh, Founder & CEO of Probus Smart Things said. The advanced NIC will initially serve Tata Power-DDL's operations, with plans to extend its benefits to other utilities and geographies in the future.
Tata Power DDL is a joint venture between Tata Power and the Government of NCT of Delhi. It distributes electricity in North Delhi and serves a populace of around 9 million.
