Smarter Billing. Faster Service. Greater Control.
What Is a Smart Meter?
A Smart Meter is the new generation of electricity meters. Unlike basic meters, a Smart Meter can be read remotely. The digital device tracks electricity usage at short time intervals and sends this usage data daily to Blue NRG. Smart meters are designed to give you (and us) more detailed, accurate insights to help manage costs and improve efficiency.
