Advanced Meters
Our Advanced Meter Project will provide you with greater control, choice, and convenience. We will update 180,000 electric and 107,000 water meters with modern digital technology that brings many new customer benefits over time, including monthly billing, remote electric service reconnection, more options to control your costs, improved reliability through faster outage and leak detection, and more flexible payment options in a safe and secure way.
- Supply chain impacts on advanced electric meters
-
Tacoma Power is currently experiencing ongoing supply chain issues impacting the availability of advanced electric meters that could affect the timeline for upgrading the remaining service area. These ongoing supply issues result in dwindling stock due to increased material lead times and shipment delays. The supply chain constraints impact all utilities, not just those in the Puget Sound region. We are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible to ensure the project stays on track to the best of our abilities. We will continue upgrading water meters as planned.
