Consolidated Edison has filed an advanced metering business plan to deploy AMI for electricity and natural gas

Territory-wide deployment is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2022.

Deployment would begin in 2017 on Staten Island and, in Q4, Westchester, with Brooklyn and Manhattan deployment beginning in 2018 and Bronx and Queens deployment beginning in 2019.

Regarding third-party access to AMI data, ConEd said that the smart meter customer portal currently under development through Con Edison’s Digital Customer Experience (DCX) initiative will include Green Button download as a base feature of the selected solution. As smart meters are installed, customers will have access to 15-minute interval data, rather than monthly usage data.

Con Edison also seeks to offer more robust data exchange functionality to customers, such as the Green Button Connect standard protocol. However, Green Button Connect is not included in AMI project funding; REV Track Two is addressing third-party access issues and may include the Green Button Connect feature

Green Button Connect would include

• The ability for third parties to register with the utilities to be able to receive data via an automated data transfer mechanism

• The ability for customers to log into the AMI Meter Data Portal and authorize access to usage data by a registered third party, on a temporary or permanent basis

• The ability for third parties who are authorized by customers, to be automatically notified that they have been given authorization by a customer to view their usage data

• The ability for third parties to make an automated request for usage data, for all data they have been authorized to access
