After 20 years, Ameren Missouri will upgrade natural gas meters throughout Jefferson City, Mo., this spring, switching to modules that will offer customers more information on their energy use and how they can save money.
“We’re excited to roll out this new technology in mid-Missouri because it gives our natural gas customers more precise energy usage information than ever before,” John Luth, director of the smart meter program at Ameren Missouri, said. “It also provides increased safety measures to securely send us their information, which will work with our upgraded energy grid to bring everyone next-level reliability and service.”
Installations will be free. Once complete, Ameren Missouri customers will be able to log into their accounts online to see when they use the most energy, their projected bills and comparisons of their current and prior bills. They will also be able to set up alerts related to their usage and adjust their usage as desired.
This is one part of a larger effort, though. All 135,000 Ameren Missouri natural gas customers will receive similar upgrades within the next year. Work began last November and should be finished throughout mid-Missouri by summer 2024, with no downtime for current service.
Likewise, the company began installing upgraded smart meters for its electric customers in Jefferson City in September 2023.
