Why don't utilities strike deals with celluar providers to push data back to HQ over the cellular network at low utilization times (how many people use GPRS in the dead of night?).
Especially in rural areas (where physically reading meters sucks the most due to long inter-house distances), you have no guarantee of good cellular coverage. The electric company *can* however assume they have copper connectivity to the meter by definition....
