Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) has opened nominations for its 7th annual Itron Innovator Award, which recognizes utility and city customers who leverage Itron's partner enablement program for innovative resource management solutions. The winner will be announced at Itron Inspire 2025 in Orlando, Florida (October 24-30). Nominations are due by June 30, 2025.
The 2024 award recipient was Hydro One, Ontario's largest electricity provider, recognized for implementing Itron's Distributed Intelligence applications and Distribution Automation solutions in their grid modernization initiatives. Eligible nominations must demonstrate successful integration with Itron solutions and be either in pilot phase, deployed, or showing measurable results.
Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) has introduced its new Solar Battery Access Point (Solar Battery AP), a solar-powered device designed to provide network connectivity for gas and water utilities where traditional mesh networks are unavailable. Set to launch in North America in H2 2025, this innovation addresses key infrastructure challenges by enabling utilities to mount devices on their own assets, eliminating the need for expensive tower or utility pole infrastructure.
The device features a rechargeable power management system with integrated solar panels, offers cost-effective deployment by avoiding infrastructure agreements, and is designed to last up to 20 years in the field. The Solar Battery AP delivers low-latency, battery-powered mesh networking, making the transition from AMR to AMI networks more accessible for utilities while optimizing total ownership costs.

Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) and Norwegian utility Norgesnett announced their collaboration on the first edge computing deployment in the Nordics using Itron's Grid Edge Intelligence portfolio. Norgesnett will deploy 10,000 Itron distributed intelligence (DI)-enabled smart endpoints starting in the first half of 2026.
The project is part of Norgesnett's Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) grid modernization roadmap, aimed at gaining greater distribution system visibility and control. The DI-enabled solution will help address challenges from increased distributed energy resources, including rooftop solar power and electric vehicle adoption in Norway, where almost 96% of new cars registered in January 2025 were electric.
The smart endpoints will provide real-time energy usage data, enable remote power management, and support flexible two-way communication. This implementation aligns with Nordic Innovation's vision for the region to become the most sustainable and integrated globally by 2030.
Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) has announced a collaboration with the City of Helsingborg, Sweden, to implement smart city solutions through its CityEdge portfolio. The initial phase involves deploying 670 Itron Networked Lighting Controllers (NLCs) as part of the city's 30,000 streetlight network modernization plan.
The project, set to begin in early 2025, aligns with Helsingborg's Action Plan for Street Lighting and IoT 2021-2027. The CityEdge central management software will enable remote control and monitoring of streetlights, featuring intelligent dimming capabilities based on time and traffic volume. The system includes outage alerts for maintenance crews, accessible via web and mobile platforms.
This implementation supports Nordic Innovation's vision of making the Nordic region the world's most sustainable integrated region by 2030. The CityEdge platform's open ecosystem can accommodate various smart city applications beyond lighting, including traffic management, public safety, and environmental monitoring.
Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) and Schneider Electric have expanded their collaboration with Microsoft to deliver a comprehensive Grid Edge Intelligence solution, addressing utility grid visibility and control challenges. The partnership integrates Itron's distributed intelligence technology with Schneider's Digital Grid solutions and Microsoft's AI platform.
The collaboration aims to improve grid reliability through high-bandwidth, real-time data integration, enabling utilities to enhance grid capacity by up to 20% while maintaining asset loading limits. This non-wires solution addresses infrastructure constraints during a period where transformer lead times extend to 1-2 years.
Key features include transformer-to-meter mapping, state estimation improvements, enhanced Volt-VAR optimization, and local DER group management. The solution enables utilities to modernize their models with near real-time measurements and better understand distribution grid bottlenecks.
The solution will be available in North America by the end of 2025.
