However, in complex large-scale IoT environments with multiple device types (e.g., electricity meters, water meters, gas meters, smart streetlights, smart cities, public services, industrial equipment), it is challenging to cover all devices using a single communication protocol. ...
A smart meter is a basic device for collecting data in a smart grid (especially in a smart distribution grid), responsible for collecting, measuring, and transmitting primary energy data. ...
Smart meters also feature bidirectional communication and remote control capabilities. ...
Hardware Pioneers, a media hub advocating for a “smarter and more connected world,” recently interviewed me, about the increasing challenges facing today’s distribution system operator (DSO). In this post, I would like to expand on that discussion and talk a bit more about the evolving nature of the smart grid and how new ...
The main purpose of smart grids is overall control over production and distribution of energy and monitoring over the stability of the connected energy sources. It’s crucial for this type of energy management system because of its distributed character. Smart grids combine many small and ...

“We are providing tools to help the utility get more equitable distribution ... a smart grid, getting information and providing ...
The vision behind the smart grid promises, among other things, to bring more attention to the lower layers of the distribution network where users are gradually transforming into prosumers. ...
In the previous posts, we have discussed the need for the regulators and policy makers to develop a new framework on which to build Smart Grid. The next stage is to investigate how much VRE can be accommodated through Smart Grid. ...
We think we know how smart grid technology will change the utility industry. But do we really? ...
From an operational perspective, many utilities are making their "smart grid" investments in the distribution network. To fully take advantage of the potential still to be unlocked from investments into smart grids it is imperative to improve reliability and stability while accommodating new revenue models for ...
The established economic model for considering energy generation (and for that matter transmission and distribution undertakings) valued economic efficiency and cost effectiveness. ...
