and gas in its service territory and the automated collection
of meter data. Customers will benefit by having access to
more data about their energy consumption and resources
to help them better manage their usage.
“Memphis and Shelby County joins communities across
Tennessee and the nation who are using smart meters and
benefiting from efficient utility service delivery, enhanced
payment options and increased customer savings. This is
an exciting time in MLGW’s 77-year history and we are
delighted to work with such a respected company as
Honeywell in this endeavor,” said Jerry Collins Jr.,
president and CEO of MLGW.
MLGW began its transition to smart grid technology in
2013 with a first phase deployment of the EnergyAxis AMI
solution, consisting of approximately 60,000 electric, water
and gas smart meters, communications and software.
“We are committed to working closely with MLGW to
continue to strengthen the reliability and security of its
utility services,” said Jeff Tolnar, vice president and
general manager of Honeywell’s Elster Smart Energy
Electricity Americas (formerly Elster Solutions). “As part of
Honeywell, we now have access to its extensive
technology portfolio, and will contribute to the company’s
growth in home and building connectivity around the
world.”Honeywell provides complete Smart Grid and
Energy Management Solutions that drive energy efficiency,
operational improvements and cost savings for utilities,
commercial and industrial customers and consumers. It
has more than 120 active EnergyAxis deployments
worldwide, including 77 in the United States, 16 of which
are in the Tennessee Valley.

Honeywell announced today that it has been selected by
Memphis Light, Gas and Water (MLGW) for a five-year
project worth more than $200 million to fully deploy
Honeywell’s Elster EnergyAxis® AMI advanced metering
technology throughout MLGW’s service territory. MLGW is
the largest three-service public utility in the United States,
with more than 1 million utility meters.
Under the project, which expands on an earlier, smaller
smart meter installation project for the utility by Elster,
Honeywell will install a fully integrated smart energy
solution that includes about 1 million electric, gas and water
smart meters. The project includes communications
modules to facilitate automated meter reading and software
solutions to analyze and manage the data. The rollout is
expected to be completed by the end of 2020. Elster was
acquired by Honeywell in December 2015.
The solution will provide operational and cost efficiencies
for MLGW through integrated metering of electric, water
