The significance of this purchase order from L&T, for CyanConnode's Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) solution, is that it is the first phase of a 20,000 unit project for a new customer. L&T requires the first 4,000 units within the next month.
CyanConnode will provide communications hardware and software for the implementation of its narrowband RF mesh AMI solution for 5,000 smart meters. As one of the largest meter manufacturers to the Indian utility sector, L&T is already providing smart meters, enabled by CyanConnode’s AMI technology, to Tata Power in Mumbai. This order brings the total units ordered by L&T to 31,735.
Last week CyanConnode announced receipt of a $3.2m order from L&T, its largest order to date from this strategic partner, further strengthening the relationship with L&T. These recent orders also demonstrate the suitability of CyanConnode’s proven technology for the Indian market as well as the growing demand for its range of products.
John Cronin, CyanConnode Executive Chairman, commented: “We are pleased to announce an order, for a new customer, from our strategic partner, L&T. The order not only validates the strength of our partnership with L&T but also the potential opportunity offered by the smart metering market in India.”
