Smart Grid Solutions (SGS) has been awarded a contract by Consolidated Edison Company of NY, Inc. and Orange & Rockland (O&R) Utilities, Inc., both regulated operating companies of Consolidated Edison, Inc. (NYSE: ED), to install electric smart meters and gas smart modules.

The contract also includes building the supporting communications network for territory-wide coverage using SGS's industry-leading ProFieldMETER technology.
