Hear our COO (Saahas Saahas) on his views on how he is shaping Polaris as an AMISP - "Smart metering is the catalyst that will propel the transformation of the power distribution sector in India. It is however a critical process and involves complex functional requirements. The architecture, which involves an intricate software-hardware interplay, makes it one of the more complex solutions to implement. Polaris is one of the few organizations in the space with the expertise to create and deploy such an integrated solution and achieve system reliability, creating long-term value for electricity distribution companies. Our projects in enduring terrains of Ladakh and consistency in Bihar are testaments to our AMI prowess." #PolarisSmartMetering #OurStory

About us
Polaris (formerly known as Gram Power (India) Pvt Ltd) is an energy technology company founded out of Berkeley, California. We have developed disruptive smart grid technology to radically change the way electricity is supplied to and consumed by users. Our technology enables rural and urban consumers to get access to reliable and clean energy, control and optimize their electricity expenses using their phones, pay for power just like they purchase recharge coupons for cell phones and interact with their power distribution companies like never before. The technology also helps eliminate theft, pilferage, or non-payment of power bills. Our work has resulted in us designing the lowest-cost smart meter in the world, the most advanced power distribution management technology, and a smart microgrid solution for energy access in remote areas. The company's technology was also selected by NASA among the top 10 cleantech innovations around the world. We have so far brought smart grids to 30 remote areas in rural India through our Smart Microgrid solution. We are now bringing our technology to the national grid by managing power distribution with our technology for India's biggest private power distribution company. Also, Polaris is launching in Africa to bring energy to 1 million families. With strong funders from Europe and Silicon Valley, we are now bringing the benefits of our intelligent energy technology to rural and urban regions worldwide

From vision to reality, Polaris Smart Metering has come a long way! Polaris virtually pioneered smart meters for solar microgrids in India at a time when the country needed viable solutions to take electricity to remote areas; created opportunities for smart meter implementation in private and public streams of life; deployed its own integrated smart metering solution in Ladakh – one of the highest altitude deployments in the country with successful performance track record in the harshest weather conditions; and now ramping up its production capacity to 10 million smart meters per year to deliver its USD 1.1 bn AMI project portfolio. For Polaris, it’s no more a journey. It’s about experience! #SmartMetering #Innovation #PolarisJourney #MinistryofPower #REC #LPDD #UPPCL #SBPDCL #AMISP

“Growth” and “Transformation” are two words which are often used in the corporate speak. These are foundation words for any organization seeking to harness the spirit of #changemanagement to scale up for business success. At Polaris, we are effecting a change at the organizational level, to create collective alignment to our #vision, approach and functioning. To be able to collectively adapt ourselves to change and orient us to our goals, the alignment needs to be attained at the top and then percolate all the way down to the team working hard on the ground. For an organization driving #digitization of #criticalinfra from bottom up with a large and varied human resource pool, a unified understanding of what #growth and #transformation mean to us is essential to our success. That is why, we have embarked on a collaborative journey of understanding, acknowledging and imbibing the spirit of these foundation words with a step into our “G.A.T.I se Pragati” workshop. Every month, the leadership of Polaris engage in the Growth And Transformation Interaction (G.A.T.I) to align with our singular vision and derive the long-term and immediate goals from it. This journey of learning aims to enable the leaders to synchronise and unify Team Polaris to achieve our common purpose of transforming India’s #grid infrastructure to provide access to #green, #affordable and efficient #energy to all.
