The second stage of AMI deployment for Karagandy Zharyk will cover an additional 45 substations (110/35/10kV) in the area and is designed to enhance energy efficiency. The new deployment is expected to be completed by the end of 2011.

"We are very pleased to build on our success with Karagandy Zharyk as they expand their AMI deployment and pave the way for the multi-utility system implementation they have planned in coming years," said Andrey Denisov, general manager of Elster Metronica.
