Adani Energy Solutions Ltd (AESL), a leading private sector power transmission and distribution company, has reached a significant milestone by tripling its energy transmission pipeline to 27,500 circuit kilometers. Concurrently, the company is on the verge of installing over 1 crore smart meters, strengthening its position in India’s digital power revolution. AESL has installed over 97 lakh smart meters, propelling it to the top tier of digital infrastructure players in the country.
The company’s operational transmission length now stands at 17,200 circuit kilometers, with additional projects in various stages of implementation. Adani’s growth underscores its execution prowess in enhancing India’s transmission grid, crucial for ensuring uninterrupted power supply across states.
AESL’s smart metering surge is a key part of India’s national mission for digital metering. Smart meters enhance billing accuracy, reduce losses, and empower consumers with real-time consumption data, supporting the government’s goal of creating a transparent and tech-enabled power distribution system.
Adani’s smart metering push aligns with the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS), with the company playing a key role in India’s plan to digitize energy consumption on a large scale. This positions the Adani Group as a policy enabler in India’s push for energy access, efficiency, and digital transformation.
Analysts believe that AESL’s growth will make the company attractive to both domestic and foreign institutional investors, particularly as India accelerates towards Net Zero by 2070. The company’s resilience in the face of global macroeconomic headwinds demonstrates its focus on infrastructure growth backed by innovation, data, and technology.
