Rappahannock Electric Cooperative Selects Oracle
Utilities Meter Data Management to Support Smart Grid and Green Initiatives
Rappahannock Electric Cooperative (REC), a
member-owned utility servicing more than 155,000 connections in 22 Virginia
counties, has selected Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management and plans to
upgrade its Oracle Utilities Customer Care and Billing application to support
its smart grid and green initiatives. REC will work with Red Clay, a Gold level
member of Oracle Partner Network (OPN) and Platinum OPN member Lockheed Martin
on the implementation and upgrade.
With Oracle, REC plans to connect advanced metering
infrastructure (AMI) usage data and presentment tools, helping to empower
customers to effectively monitor their energy use and reduce consumption. REC will
also leverage Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management to verify, store, process
and format data it collects from approximately 150,000 smart electric meters,
providing every department, application and business process with the metering
information it needs.
