Works started at the end of 2023 and have been completed in 7 of the 38 areas included in the project. Almost 3,000 smart meters and 170 electrical panels have been installed so far.

The investment is co-financed with over RON60.7 million from the European Regional Development Fund, with the company’s contribution exceeding RON13.7 million, to which RON14.1 million worth of VAT is added.

As part of the project, more than 10,500 smart meters will be installed at consumers in the neighborhoods of George Enescu, Zamca, Marasesti and Centru in the municipality of Suceava. 

By the end of 2023, Delgaz Grid had installed some 435,000 smart meters for consumers in the region of Moldavia, with the perspective of installing about 71,500 more meters in 2024. Thus, nearly 32% of customers will benefit from the smart metering system at end-2024, and 47% through new installations by the end of 2028.
