AMI to energies next phase of power sector revolution in India
EPR Magazine (Electrical & Power Review)
|January 2026
Advanced Metering Infrastructure is much more than the replacement of conventional meters with smart meters. It is an integrated system comprising smart meters, communication networks (cellular, RF or PLC), headend systems (HES), meter data management systems (MDMS), and consumer-facing digital platforms.
The power distribution sector is on a structural shift facilitated by digitisation, decentralisation and the urgent need to improve efficiency and financial sustainability. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is at the centre of this change which is an important enabler of smart grids and data-driven power management. AMI is emerging as the backbone of country's future-ready electricity distribution ecosystem with large-scale smart metering programme under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS).
Advanced Metering Infrastructure is much more than the replacement of conventional meters with smart meters. It is an integrated system comprising smart meters, communication networks (cellular, RF or PLC), head-end systems (HES), meter data management systems (MDMS), and consumer-facing digital platforms. Altogether, these components help in two-way communication between utilities and consumers which allows near real-time data flow, remote operations, and advanced analytics.
