ABB India has partnered with Indore Smart City Development (ISCDL) to deploy next-generation digital technology that enables the continuous supply of electricity to homes and businesses. In the first phase of the collaboration, this technology has enabled more than 2300 connections to achieve 24/7 electricity supply with an efficient automatic response system (ARS) in case of power outages or disruption. ABB and ISCDL now plan to replicate the same model in other areas of the city and position Indore as the model for smart city projects across India.
Indore is the largest city in Madhya Pradesh and home to over three million people and several key industries in the state. Indore is also part of the Central Government’s mission to develop 100 smart cities across the country. One of the key parameters of a smart city is the 24/7 supply of electricity to enable digital transformation and the supply of key services to citizens. Indore has set its target to boost the smart city development in sync with its ‘swachh’ identity in the world. ABB’s Compact Secondary Substations (CSS) used in the project reduces downtime by providing steady and reliable power supply through digitally enabled SCADA solutions.
