I have been debugging a bit now and the sensor receives pulses but the issue seems to be that it doesn't receive the old pulse count from GW (Ethernet) and therefore doesn't send the values.
I have upgraded the GW to 2.1.1 and with the sketch below
/**
* The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol

* network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

* REVISION HISTORY
* Version 1.0 - Henrik EKblad
* Contribution by a-lurker and Anticimex,
* Contribution by Norbert Truchsess <norbert.truchsess@t-online.de>
* Contribution by Tomas Hozza <thozza@gmail.com>
*
*
* DESCRIPTION
* The EthernetGateway sends data received from sensors to the ethernet link.
* The gateway also accepts input on ethernet interface, which is then sent out to the radio network.
*
* The GW code is designed for Arduino 328p / 16MHz. ATmega168 does not have enough memory to run this program.
*
* LED purposes:
* - To use the feature, uncomment MY_DEFAULT_xxx_LED_PIN in the sketch below
* - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
* - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
* - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
*
* See http://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway for wiring instructions.

Do I need to have any other implementation to save pulses?
The Sketch for the energy meter looks like below (currently some extra printout's):

*
* DESCRIPTION
* This sketch provides an example how to implement a distance sensor using HC-SR04
* Use this sensor to measure KWH and Watt of your house meeter
* You need to set the correct pulsefactor of your meeter (blinks per KWH).
* The sensor starts by fetching current KWH value from gateway.
* Reports both KWH and Watt back to gateway.
*
* Unfortunately millis() won't increment when the Arduino is in
* sleepmode. So we cannot make this sensor sleep if we also want
* to calculate/report watt-number.
