Smart Meters

Grid Modernization

We are modernizing the electrical grid to meet your energy needs

Smart meters are one of the ways NB Power is modernizing the power grid to provide you with the best possible service into the future.

A smart meter looks similar to the current meter on your home. What makes it different is that it allows two-way communication, over a secure network, giving you the information you need to see and manage your energy use.

FASTER POWER RESTORATION

In many cases, smart meters will send notices to NB Power when the power is out. This allows us to start the restoration as quickly as possible so we can get the power back on faster.
