Atos, an international leader in digital services, has been selected by Salzburg AG, one of the main energy and infrastructure service providers in Austria, as its lead partner to manage the complex transition of 470.000 electricity meters to smart meters and monitor the needed infrastructure.

An international team comprised of Atos and Atos Worldgrid consultants from four countries are currently working on the transition. The smart meters will be installed by the end of 2019 in accordance with EU Directive 2020 and will serve 100% of consumers in Salzburg.

At Salzburg AG, the program on the implementation of the smart metering system consists of a total of 17 individual projects, to which Atos and Atos Worldgrid experts from Italy, France, Germany and Austria will contribute their experience and their know-how from the smart energy field in 13 projects to guarantee a smooth transition.

The new measurement systems offer numerous benefits: Smart meters help to save energy, as they provide customers with more control over their own electricity consumption. Smart meters allow for a more precise measurement of the consumed amount. The grid quality and services will also be significantly improved for final customers. Furthermore, individual electricity consumption can be accessed online by the corresponding customer.
