A milestone in the transformation of Uruguay's electrical system

At the Palacio de la Luz, UTE presented a key milestone: virtually full smart-meter coverage across the entire country, reaching more than 1,700,000 households.

This achievement marks a paradigm shift in energy management, enabling a digitalized network with access to real-time information and an increasingly efficient operation.

The impact is already tangible:

  • Reconnections reduced from 9 hours to 15 minutes
  • A 97.2% reduction in estimated consumption readings
  • 80% of operations performed remotely
  • Fewer complaints and losses

The conference featured Andrea Cabrera, President of UTE, Pablo Regina Lopez, Commercial Manager, and closing remarks by Rafael Staricco, CEO and Partner of Quantik, who highlighted the value of this kind of project in raising the bar for the industry.

At Isbel, we support this process as a technology partner, being part of a transformation that not only optimizes operations, but also lays the foundation for an energy system that is more efficient, sustainable and ready for the future.

A step forward that positions Uruguay as a regional benchmark 🚀
