Course Introduction

The deployment of Advanced Electricity Metering throughout the world will result in vast opportunities for professionals with an appreciation of Smart Metering Technology. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is an integrated System of Smart Meters, Communications Networks, and Data Management Systems that enables two-way communication between Utilities and Customers. Customer Systems include in-home displays, home area Networks, Energy Management Systems, and other Customer-Side-of-the-meter equipment that enable Smart Grid Functions in Residential, Commercial, and Industrial facilities.
 

Electricity Metering
 

The roll-out of Next Generation Advanced Electricity Metering will facilitate the recording of electricity usage, and a pattern of Electricity Consumption can then be developed. This data can assist customers in reducing their energy usage and costs. Smart Meters will be beneficial to both electricity supply companies and energy consumers as they facilitate
 

  • Remote Operation
  • Remote Meter Reading
  • Real Time Pricing
  • New Tariff Options
     

The correct Exchange of Electric Meter Data is of major importance to the success of Smart Metering Implementation. The operation of the liberalized energy market will afford the opportunity for service providers to add value for customers and bring a lot of benefits for Service Providers.
