Horizon Power has successfully rolled out advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) across six remote communities in the Kimberley, unlocking future benefits and savings for some of Western Australia’s most isolated communities.
The Western Australian Government, through Horizon Power's Remote Communities program, has completed the installation of 99 advanced meters, in partnership with Kimberley Regional Service Providers (KRSP), in the remote communities of Chile Creek, Cockatoo Springs and Doon Doon (Woolah), La Djardarr Bay, Embalgun and Kupungarri.
This work forms part of the transfer of 117 remote communities from the Department of Communities to Horizon Power in 2023, which aims to bring energy equity to remote communities across the State and increase opportunities for Aboriginal engagement in the energy transition.
