Smart Metering: Infrastructure, Methodologies, Applications and Challenges combines the fundamentals of smart meters in smart grids with the latest advances and technologies in advanced smart infrastructure. With a strong focus on practical guidance and applications, this book examines the design and implementation of smart meters, as well as cyber security and data management challenges. Following an introduction to smart grid architecture, the book details design elements of smart meters to enable them for specific applications, such as recording the energy consumption of users, load forecasting, resilience enhancement and energy theft detection. A deep dive into smart meter data analytics is then presented, accompanied by load forecasting methods and their advantages and challenges. Subsequent chapters also discuss outage management, fault identification and other applications of smart meters, including power network connection verifications. This is a comprehensive resource on smart metering and a valuable read to students, researchers and engineers interested in power systems engineering, smart grids, and smart energy technologies. Discusses advanced architecture in the context of establishing smart meters in smart grids for enhanced operation and data utilization Provides detailed discussions on smart meter data analysis Explores the design of smart meters and possible implementation of AI, ML, and other advanced methodologies to enhance the functions of power systems using smart meter data
Smart grid (SG), also called intelligent grid, is a modern improvement of the traditional power grid that will revolutionize the way electricity is produced, delivered, and consumed. Studying key concepts such as advanced metering infrastructure, distribution management systems, and energy management systems will support the design of a cost-effective, reliable, and efficient supply system, and will create a real-time bidirectional communication means and information exchange between the consumer and the grid operator of electric power. Optimizing and Measuring Smart Grid Operation and Control is a critical reference source that presents recent research on the operation, control, and optimization of smart grids. Covering topics that include phase measurement units, smart metering, and synchrophasor technologies, this book examines all aspects of modern smart grid measurement and control. It is designed for engineers, researchers, academicians, and students.
This book discusses the use of smart metering technology (SMT) in diverse areas including electrical power grids, communications, transportation, and more. Chapters cover such topics as smart meters, off-grid electrification, standardized risk management procedures for mini-grids, and SMT in academics, among others.
This book focuses on the economics of smart meters and is one of the first to present comprehensive evidence on the impacts, cost-benefits and risks associated with smart metering. Throughout this volume, Jacopo Torriti integrates his findings from institutional cost-benefit analyses and smart metering trials in a range of European countries with key economic and social concepts and policy insights derived from almost ten years of research in this area. He explores the extent to which the benefits of smart meters outweigh the cost, and poses key questions including: which energy savings can be expected from the roll out of smart meters in households? Is Cost-Benefit Analysis an appropriate economic tool for assessing the impacts of smart metering rollouts? Can smart meters play a significant role in research on people’s activities and the timing of energy demand? Torriti concludes by providing a much-needed survey of recent changes and expected future developments in this growing field. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy policy and demand and smart metering infrastructure.
This book presents current research in privacy-preserving protocols for smart grids. It contains several approaches and compares them analytically and by means of simulation. In particular, the book introduces asymmetric DC-Nets, which offer an ideal combination of performance and features in comparison with homomorphic encryption; data anonymization via cryptographic protocols; and data obfuscation by means of noise injection or by means of the installation of storage banks. The author shows that this theory can be leveraged into several application scenarios, and how asymmetric DC-Nets are generalizations of additive homomorphic encryption schemes and abstractions of symmetric DC-Nets. The book provides the reader with an understanding about smart grid scenarios, the privacy problem, and the mathematics and algorithms used to solve it.
In conjunction with the rapid growth in adopting smart devices, the smart cities concept has been raised simultaneously in many modern societies. A smart grid is an essential part of any smart city as both consumers and power utility companies benefit from the features provided by the power grid. In addition to advanced features presented by smart grids, there may also be a risk when the grids are exposed to malicious acts such as security attacks performed by terrorists. Many vendors develop smart meters and at the same time, many researchers have proposed various supported security systems, however, no security measures were considered in most of those designs. This book presents a security study for smart metering systems with a prototype implementation for future works.
Electric power systems worldwide face radical transformation with the need to decarbonise electricity supply, replace ageing assets and harness new information and communication technologies (ICT).
