LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., May 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Itron, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITRI), which is innovating new ways for utilities and cities to manage energy and water, has completed the deployment of a smart water management project with Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC), the governing body of the city of Thane in western India. The project modernizes water management through advanced digital technology that strengthens conservation, enhances distribution efficiency and improves service reliability for residents. Executed in collaboration with Itron partner Ceinsys Tech Ltd . (CS TECH Ai), the project includes Itron’s comprehensive meter data management (MDM) solution and smart water meters.

Itron’s advanced MDM collection solution, Temetra, enables TMC to collect, upload and store meter data through a secure, web-based interface.

Together, these solutions provide greater visibility into water consumption patterns, helping to identify anomalies, reduce billing errors and improve customer service.

Additionally, CS TECH Ai’s on-site presence and experience in large-scale urban deployments helped ensure smooth execution, on-time delivery and full integration of the smart metering system with TMC’s broader infrastructure. The smart water management project is already delivering measurable benefits, including improved water conservation, reduced water loss and greater transparency and accuracy in billing.

“Our smart water management project reflects Thane Municipal Corporation’s commitment to leveraging proven technology to improve how we manage and distribute water across the city. By working with Itron and CS TECH Ai, we now have access to reliable meter data and digital insights that can help us advance our goals of conserving water and enhancing service delivery for the citizens of Thane,” said Atul Kulkarni, Executive Engineer at TMC.
