Prepaid Gas Meters in Dhaka: 1.2 lakh more households to get them
Titas survey finds gas costs
can be cut by 38pc
The Executive Committee of the National Economic Council yesterday extended a project to install prepaid gas meters in Dhaka households, which will see 1.2 lakh more prepaid connections by December 2022.
Residents of the capital can save 38 percent in costs if they are using prepaid gas meters, which also results in similarly reduced wastage of the utility, found a recent survey by Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Limited.
Titas is commissioning the meters at households in Dhaka to minimise wastage of the utility, and has set up 200,000 meters in the first two phases of the project that began in January 2015.
