STS Prepaid Meter: Scalable Architecture for Rural Electrification Projects
The STS prepaid meter can operate as a standalone prepayment meter or as a consumption sensor within a wider IoT infrastructure, streaming load profiles and meter events to a cloud-based head-end system.
Property developers and smart city planners are adopting the STS prepaid meter because it supports both prepaid and post-paid switching, offering flexibility during regulatory changes.
For system integrators, a modern STS prepaid meter includes optical communication ports and wireless modules (NB-IoT, LoRa, or RF mesh) to facilitate two-way data exchange. A scalable STS prepaid meter infrastructure also enables automated disconnect-reconnect functions, improving demand-side management and load-shedding response during peak events.
