Under the MOU, both the companies will tender as part of a consortium for various smart metering projects in India and other target markets.
Cyan will integrate its CyLec smart metering solution with El Sewedy’s single-phase smart meters and support the open meter protocol.
Cyan executive chairman John Cronin said: "We are very pleased to be partnering with El Sewedy to provide smart metering technology to their customers in India and other markets.
"This partnership will also increase the number of qualified meter manufacturers in India using OMP as standard.
"As the Indian market moves to commercial deployments, Cyan is well positioned to support open standards for meter and communication protocols, which is imperative to ensure customers can achieve cost efficiencies and benefit from technological advances."
El Sewedy employs 2,000 people in seven factories throughout Egypt, Ghana, Zambia, Ethiopia, Mexico, Brazil and India.
