SCE created Edison Smart
Connect in 2007 to implement AMI for residences and small businesses over five
years. Cash Stage 2 gave SCE interval billing capability but required a change
of all business processes to support deployment of the devices – all while
installing 8000-15,000 meters daily. SCE estimates a 1000 megawatt reduction
in overall peak consumption and cost recovery by rate payers within 20 years.
