ADD BULGARIA, ADD GRUP’s partner  in Bulgaria, inked a major deal with EVN Bulgaria for the delivery of 550 000  smart electricity meters based on PRIME technology. The project will span over the next four  years, with the first delivery planned till the end of 2016.

For EVN Bulgaria this project is especially important as by the end of the project, 80% of all meters in its network will be with remote reading .

ADD GRUP with its partners Tecnolines UAB and ELKO SIA delivered a turnkey pilot project to Lithuanian electricity distributor ESO as part of a comprehensive Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA).  It should be noted that a previous CBA (done without participation of ADD GRUP) in 2012 had negative results, leading to a halt of Smart Meter installations in Lithuania.

Lithuanian National DSO ESO awarded the implementation of Smart Metering pilot project to the consortium of UAB Tecnolines, SIA Elko and ADD-Production S.R.L. as a result of competitive international tender. The purpose of the pilot is to analyze the costs benefits of smart metering deployment in Lithuania.

August, a month of vacations for many, for thousands of citizens in Latvia will be associated with a start-up of country wide smart metering implementation. This follows an agreement signed between AS "Sadales tīkls" (Latvian Distribution System Operator), ELKO (a company with more than 40 years of experience in installation works) and ADD GRUP (a well known manufacturer of smart metering/AMI) for supply of smart metering solution based on PRIME technology, covering from 50 000 to 100 000 consumers.
