Beginning in 2022, we’re replacing electric, water and gas meters throughout our service area with AMI meters. Watch this brief video to learn more!

AMI meters are digital meters that allow for private, secure and automatic two-way communication between you and GRU. The technology will ultimately enable you to access near real-time information about your usage. This gives you the ability to save energy and manage costs more effectively.
