Detroit Edison has started a pilot program for automated meter reading in Pontiac that will allow the utility to read meters with a computer at a remote location. Detroit Edison is now receiving meter data from 1,200 residential and small business customers in Pontiac. This represents a first step to determine if the new technology can be applied on a larger scale. Further details from http://www.electricnet.com/read/nl20000718/194481
