The company reports that its technologies and solutions have contributed to avoiding or enabling savings of millions of tons of CO2 emissions in multiple financial years, reflecting a focus on sustainability and support for cleaner energy systems. Landis+Gyr has also committed to initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative to further reduce carbon emissions, in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Landis+Gyr operates globally, referencing employees across five continents and activities in over 30 countries in earlier disclosures. Its solutions are used in regions including North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, as evidenced by contracts and partnerships with utilities and service providers in the United States, Australia, Japan, and Iceland. These projects often involve smart metering, grid edge sensing meters, and charge point management systems for electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
Smart Metering and Grid Edge Intelligence
Landis+Gyr states that it offers solutions for Smart Metering and Grid Edge Intelligence. Smart metering projects described in company news include deployments of advanced meters and AMI systems that provide frequent meter readings and high‑resolution data. These systems can be used by utilities to forecast energy demand, manage outages, and support distributed energy resources.
Grid edge intelligence solutions from Landis+Gyr, such as grid edge sensing meters and associated applications, are described as delivering high‑resolution data and real‑time insights. Utilities and metering providers use these capabilities to enable demand management programs, improve reliability, and support consumer engagement in energy use. The company also references an open and scalable ecosystem that can support third‑party edge applications.
Smart Infrastructure and EV Charging
In addition to metering and grid edge solutions, Landis+Gyr is associated with smart infrastructure offerings through its subsidiary Etrel. Etrel provides the OCEAN software platform, described as a scalable electric vehicle (EV) charge point and energy management system. This platform supports monitoring and management of residential, business, and public charging locations from a single cloud‑based tool and is characterized as hardware‑agnostic, allowing integration with different charging hardware.
Through such platforms, Landis+Gyr supports charging service providers in expanding EV charging infrastructure and managing charging services, including integration with enterprise systems via application programming interfaces (APIs).
Sustainability and Decarbonization Focus
Landis+Gyr repeatedly emphasizes its role in supporting decarbonization of the grid. The company reports that its smart metering base of connected intelligent devices has helped avoid or enable savings of more than 9 million tons of CO2 emissions in certain financial years.
