Genus Power has crossed a significant global milestone, deploying more than 26 million smart meters worldwide, reinforcing its position as a technology and execution partner for utilities transitioning to digital energy systems.
A significant share of these deployments has come from the company’s participation in India’s national grid modernisation programme, where Genus has installed over 10 million smart meters as a leading Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) service provider. The company’s experience in executing large-scale, multi-year utility programmes across varied operating environments enables it to support utilities globally as they expand smart metering adoption.
With more than three decades of experience in the energy metering sector, Genus Power offers a comprehensive AMI ecosystem that includes smart electricity, gas and water meters, communication technologies, proprietary Head End Systems (HES), Meter Data Management (MDM) platforms, and mobile applications designed for utility operations. These solutions enable remote monitoring, real-time data analytics, demand response programmes, and improved grid optimisation, helping utilities enhance operational efficiency and deliver better consumer services.
The company’s technology development is supported by a strong research and development ecosystem in India, recognised by the Government of India. Genus operates six fully integrated manufacturing facilities located in Jaipur, Haridwar, Guwahati and Kotputli, with a combined annual production capacity exceeding 18 million meters. Equipped with automated SMT lines, advanced moulding capabilities and comprehensive testing infrastructure, these facilities are designed to manufacture internationally compliant smart metering solutions at scale.
Through its manufacturing operations and partner network, Genus supports more than 16,000 direct and indirect jobs across its value chain. Beyond India, the company continues to expand its footprint across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, the Pacific region and SAARC markets, working with utilities and system integrators to deploy scalable AMI solutions tailored to diverse regulatory frameworks and operating conditions. A dedicated team of over 550 R&D and software engineering professionals supports global deployments with end-to-end lifecycle capabilities.
Genus is also integrating AI-enabled technologies across manufacturing, deployment and operational processes to improve productivity, forecasting and decision-making. The company is developing advanced analytics platforms to help utilities improve loss detection, billing efficiency and asset performance monitoring.
Commenting on the milestone, Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power, said, “Crossing 26 million smart meter deployments globally reflects the trust utilities across continents have placed in Genus. As power systems transition towards digital and data-driven grids, our focus remains on delivering reliable hardware, intelligent software and strong execution capabilities. From India’s largest smart metering programmes to international markets, we aim to remain a long-term technology partner for utilities building future-ready energy networks.”
With capabilities to execute projects under Capex, OpEx and Totex models, Genus Power continues to position itself as a strategic partner for utilities accelerating smart grid adoption worldwide.
