"Every smart meter we ship is efficient, reliable, and responsibly made. This recognition by CII strengthens our resolve to drive sustainability impact at the intersection of energy, technology, and society."
Protecting the Planet
Kimbal's environmental actions are focused on compliance, conservation, and circularity. The company is advancing ISO 14001:2015 certification for environmental management and has implemented rainwater harvesting and zero-liquid-discharge practices at its mega plant. Tree plantation drives around factory premises and nearby communities are boosting biodiversity and carbon sequestration.
Operationally, Kimbal leverages RoHS-compliant materials, recyclable packaging, and MES-driven monitoring of energy, water, and scrap. Kaizen programs continuously improve efficiency, while new electronic filtration systems cut down single-use waste. Looking ahead, Kimbal plans to expand its use of renewable electricity and integrate Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to achieve more sustainable energy operations.

The newly built basketball court brings sports and community pride to the area. Medical and eye camps, along with entrepreneurship and fashion training for youth, further strengthen health, confidence, and livelihoods.
Governance with Integrity

Anti-bribery and whistleblower protection policies maintain ethical standards, and cybersecurity measures are embedded across Kimbal's AMI platforms to protect utility and consumer data.
