PenLight's Meter Upgrade Project
At PenLight, providing reliable service is our top priority. The purpose of PenLight’s Meter Upgrade Project is to upgrade all 33,000 electric meters throughout our service territory. Existing meters are reaching the end of their life cycle, and require replacement. Upgraded meters will provide members with a number of additional benefits outlined below.
PenLight has been a trusted provider and asset to the community for over 94 years. We strive to provide our members with reliable and affordable service they deserve. Crews will begin installing the upgraded meters in late 2019.
