October 31 2006 - 1:20PM
Business Wire
Metretek, Incorporated (�Metretek Florida�), a subsidiary of
Metretek Technologies, Inc. (Amex:MEK), announced that it has
received an order for its flagship DC2000 Automatic Meter Reading
(AMR) software system as well as several thousand of its high
performance SIP brand of cellular based, meter data loggers. The
order, valued at approximately $1.6�million in revenues, is
scheduled for delivery during 2007 to a natural gas distribution
company based in Europe. The system will enable the user to read
its entire base of industrial customer meters within minutes via
GSM/EDGE cellular and TCP/IP technologies and to do this several
times a day, thereby facilitating multiple billing options for its
customers. Joseph L. Harley, vice president of Metretek Florida,
noted that the order is from a new client of the company. �Their
decision to purchase from Metretek Florida is gratifying indeed. We
believe it represents further validation of the merits of our
best-in-class energy data collection systems and the strength of
our reputation for value both inside and outside of North America,�
said Harley. �While we continue to demonstrate our competitive
strengths in the AMR market segment, the InvisiConnect�
machine-to-machine (M2M) solutions we have derived from AMR
products like the SIP are bringing incremental sales opportunities
to us from new market segments,� Harley added. Data loggers are
typically fitted to complex-tariff based utility meters for the
purpose of remotely, and in near real-time, reading and
transmitting consumption data to a host computer system. When
coupled with Metretek, Incorporated�s DC2000 data collection and
management software system (which features powerful event
notification, web publishing and TCP/IP communication), the
Metretek SIP will deliver a cost-effective, timely and seamless
integration of data into a utility�s enterprise, without the need
for wired communications networks or costly wireless network
build-out. Metretek Technologies, Inc., through its subsidiaries �
Metretek, Incorporated; Southern Flow Companies, Inc.; and
PowerSecure, Inc. -- is a diversified provider of energy
measurement products, services and data-management systems to
industrial and commercial users and suppliers of natural gas and
electricity. Additional information about Metretek, Incorporated�s
