Imtech receives intention to award from Alliander for 'Smart meters'
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Gouda - Royal Imtech N.V. (European technical service provider) reports that it
has received an intention to award from Alliander N.V. (contracting division by
commission of Liander N.V.) for the installation of smart electricity and gas
meters, including interior remediation works.
Gerard van de Aast, CEO of Royal Imtech N.V.: 'We are delighted with this notice
of intent from Alliander to award this long-term contract to Imtech. The
combination of experience in the customer process, the process management,
efficiency and scalability made the breakthrough. We value the trust that is
being placed in us, to be able to, also via this project, play a major role in
achieving the Dutch government's climate objectives.'
Climate objectives
To achieve the 2020 climate objectives, the European Commission has stipulated
that by the end of 2020, 80% of the inhabitants of the European Union must be
provided with a smart meter. To realise this, the Dutch government called into
existence the large-scale offer from 2015 to 2020 with the aim to have offered a
smart meter to 100% of Dutch consumers.
Smart meters
At the end of this period, the expectation is that 80% of the Dutch population
will have a smart meter, which will offer them the opportunity to gain more
insight into energy consumption, generation of their own energy, and energy
feed-in. Alliander N.V. decided to take advantage of the large-scale offer in
order to carry out certain remediation works in the meter cupboard alongside the
installation of the smart meters. The whole project includes more than two
million meters and is split up into two lots.
Long-term contract
As the main contractor for one lot, Imtech Traffic & Infra (Unit Energy) will be
entirely responsible for the customer process right through to the exchange of
the electricity and gas meter and the remediation. This also encompasses the
logistics concerning the delivery of the electricity and gas meter and the
contact with the customer. It is a framework contract, in which the initial
contract value is some tens of millions of euros during the course of the
contract.
The preparatory works start in April 2015. The installation starts from October
2015 and runs through to 2020 (69 months). The period from 2021 to 2023 will be
used to replace the remaining meters.
