Global Adoption of Prepaid Electric Meters: A Comprehensive Look

Hey there! Do you know which countries are widely using prepaid electric meters? In Africa, countries like Kenya, South Africa, and Nigeria have seen a significant uptake. Given the relatively weak power infrastructure and challenges in electricity billing, prepaid meters have effectively addressed these issues. Moreover, the STS (System Technical Standard) is commonly adopted to ensure safety and compatibility.
Moving on to Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, and other nations have embraced prepaid electric meters. In rural and remote areas, the pay-before-use model not only suits local conditions but also supports the development of smart grids.
Europe is no exception. Prepaid electric meters are a common sight in the UK and Ireland, and they’re also used in Eastern European countries such as Bulgaria and Romania. In the UK, a large number of rental properties opt for prepaid meters, ensuring that consumption aligns with payments.
Additionally, countries like India in Asia and Jordan in the Middle East have joined the trend. Jordan, for instance, partnered with enterprises to deploy smart prepaid meters to manage electricity in refugee camps, enabling accurate metering and rational distribution. Whether it’s to improve electricity fee collection efficiency or optimize power management, these countries have reaped the benefits of using prepaid electric meters.
