By empowering enterprises with cutting-edge, plug and play, smart solutions, we aim to accelerate the adoption of smart IoT solutions by enterprises and enable their digital transformation.”
Mr. Arun Kumar Mishra, CEO, EESL, said, “Smart Metering is the pivot around which India’s next chapter of energy security, reliability and consumer-driven market will be written. We at EESL are committed to implementing innovative solutions to enable India in reaching its energy efficiency goals.”
