Itron Broadens Electrification in Indonesia with Smart Payment Solution
PT PLN, a state-owned utility company in Jakarta, expands contract with Itron for a total of more than 1 million smart payment meters
After a successful initial rollout, PT PLN decided to expand its use of Itron’s smart payment solution to include a total of more than 1 million meters. The solution helps the utility implement revenue protection measures while empowering consumers to manage their electricity usage according to their budget and needs. With Itron’s smart payment solution, consumers have insights into their remaining energy balance, reducing the likelihood of an untimely shut-off. In addition, PT PLN is benefiting from the ability to streamline customer service and bill payment while reducing operational costs, delinquent account risks and improving cash flow.
“Itron’s smart payment solution is helping PT PLN enhance our ability to provide convenient and affordable electricity services to energy consumers in Indonesia. We are pleased to be able to extend this benefit to even more customers with this new contract,” said Septa Hamid, general manager of supply chain management at PT PLN (Persero). “With Itron’s high-quality, reliable technology, we are expanding electrification and improving service to our customers.”
“We look forward to continuing our collaboration with PT PLN to provide consumers with a convenient, cost-effective way to prepay for electricity,” said George Daenuwy, PT Mecoindo president. “Itron’s smart payment solution directly supports the goals and outcomes of PT PLN’s electrification program and enables the utility and its customers to better manage energy resources.”
