More than 1.2 million electric customers and 650,000 gas customers. Awarded $200M in SGIG
funds ($452M total project value) to deploy 1.1M smart meters and implement dynamic pricing.
One of the caveats of ARRA SGIG funding has been an unprecedented amount of transparency
and accountability, along with a stringent reporting model to track how the federal funds are
utilized. Sophisticated internal structures are required to adhere to the stringent requirements
for reimbursement and the 30-day reporting cycle set in place by the federal government.
Sure Power was called upon to provide specialized PMO services to handle the cross-functional
reporting and controls for the DOE - as well as the State PUC and various interested third-party
organizations over the length of the AMI program.
