UK operator of gas distribution network, Wales and West Utilities (WWU), has been selected by utility firm  National Grid for the rollout of a smart meter project. Some 10,000 smart meters will be installed for customers of the National Grid in Wales and the utility’s service territories in the south-east of England.
