Follow-on Order from Larsen & Toubro

CyanConnode, a world leader in Narrowband Radio Frequency (RF) Smart Mesh Networks, is pleased to announce that it has received a follow-on order from Larsen & Toubro (L&T) for the Madhya Pradesh Paschim Kshetra Vidyut Vitaran Company Ltd (MPWZ), worth approximately $480k.

In 2018, CyanConnode announced receipt of an order worth $3.2m from L&T, relating to the deployment of its Omnimesh solution for MPWZ). Hardware for the order was delivered to L&T during 2018 and the deployment has progressed rapidly.

Upon implementation of CyanConnode's Ominimesh solution, MPWZ has seen dramatic improvements in billing efficiency, particularly in 'Feeder' areas with high non-technical losses. As a consequence, MPWZ has decided to increase the quantity of smart meter deployments in 'Feeder' areas with high non-technical losses first, the result of which is to reduce the number of RF Smart Mesh Network Canopy Gateway deployments but increase the number of RF Module deployments.

With the increased number of RF Module deployments, the combined value of the original order and the follow-on order has increased to approximately $3.68m.

MPWZ, the State-owned utility, operates in Madhya Pradesh and has over 3 million electricity meters, located in Indore, Ujjain and other cities. CyanConnode's technology, which meets the technical requirements for Advanced Metering Infrastructure in India, has been integrated into L&T's IS 16444 Smart Meter, which complies with the 'Bureau of Indian Standards' meter protocol.

CyanConnode's Omnimesh solution provides automated meter reading including; on-demand meter reading, remote meter disconnection/reconnection, alerts and alarms including outage notifications, all of which helps Utilities to improve their billing efficiency as well as reducing non-technical losses.

Anil Daulani, Managing Director India, commented: "CyanConnode India is pleased to announce the first follow-on order for its Omnimesh solution, which was officially launched in June last year.

"Our RF Smart Mesh Network technology facilitates the deployment of a build-as-you-go smart network canopy, which will enable MPWZ to scale-up smart metering deployment across its customer base in a cost-effective and flexible manner. MPWZ's implementation demonstrates how standards-based technology can be integrated and deployed swiftly, facilitating billing efficiency and reduction of non-technical losses."

"CyanConnode has made significant progress in India with its revolutionary Omnimesh technology, which is demonstrated by a current Indian order book of over $20m."
