(NASDAQ: ITRI), which is innovating the way utilities and cities manage energy and water, has been recognized with a best practices award in Growth Excellence Leadership in the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) industry by Frost & Sullivan. The award recognizes Itron for its consistently high standards for delivering customer value and industry growth in the Asia-Pacific region.
With Itron’s AMI network, developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region are able to easily integrate distributed energy resources (DERs) to meet growing power demand.

Due to these capabilities, Frost & Sullivan reported that Itron’s superior solution will help it penetrate this early-stage market.
“Itron has developed into a global leader in AMI, distribution automation streetlighting and emerging IoT sensing,” said Rajalingam Chinnasamy, industry manager of Industrial Practice at Frost & Sullivan. “This award recognizes Itron’s impressive growth in unit sales, overall growth rate and continued commitment in the Asia-Pacific region.”
